Book, Chapter

 1    I, 2 |   universe is governed, does not understand from the very magnitude
 2    I, 3 |         reflection, who does not understand that it is one Being who
 3    I, 3 | accomplished by one--he will now understand that that which has been
 4    I, 3 |          is right that we should understand and say this very same thing.
 5    I, 5 |       death, he said "You do not understand the authority and majesty
 6    I, 8 |         so thoughtless as not to understand that those were mere mortals,
 7    I, 11|    matter, in order that men may understand in what errors they are
 8    I, 11|          to be wise because they understand that there cannot be a living
 9    I, 11|       poems. But they who do not understand the manner, or the cause,
10    I, 12|       things any one may readily understand. For if Saturn is the son
11    I, 15|          then at length you will understand how widely this persuasion
12    I, 15|       widely spread, that we may understand the same concerning Jupiter
13    I, 17|         a woman, he who does not understand that she was a human being
14    I, 19|       Stygian waves, that we may understand how great is the power of
15    I, 20|     Venus. They do not therefore understand how vain are their religions,
16    I, 21|   Because they were the first to understand the worship of the deity,
17    I, 21|       were the first who did not understand the worship of the deity,
18    I, 21|       forward, from which he may understand that all things which are
19    I, 23|        step towards wisdom is to understand what is false; the second,
20   II, 1 |       man: for if they wished to understand this, in the first place
21   II, 1 |     themselves highly, and would understand that there is more in man
22   II, 2 |           Nor do the foolish men understand, that if images could exercise
23   II, 3 |         prudent men, though they understand the vanity of these ceremonies,
24   II, 3 |      earth made by the hand: you understand that they are vain, and
25   II, 3 |        their own minds, so as to understand that nothing which is beheld
26   II, 3 |        neither know the true nor understand the false. But the more
27   II, 3 |   imitate the life of cattle. To understand that which is false is truly
28   II, 3 |        of human wisdom, so as to understand that which is not; but they
29   II, 5 |         were they able at all to understand how much greater and more
30   II, 5 |   intelligence. But who does not understand why God contrived them?
31   II, 7 |          the pontiff. Now let me understand what are your sentiments:
32   II, 9 |       may be instructed, and may understand what can in truth be "the
33   II, 9 |        these persons, who do not understand the power of God: for they
34   II, 9 |        own condition, and not to understand how far it is permitted
35   II, 10|          they did not thoroughly understand the matter. Heraclitus said
36   II, 12|        reared, he will assuredly understand that those earth-born children
37   II, 18|        are earth. But who cannot understand that it is unlawful for
38  III, 9 |       who could neither see, nor understand, nor surmise at any time
39  III, 13|         Of this, I do not indeed understand what there is which he imagines
40  III, 17| therefore, they not only did not understand the power and majesty of
41  III, 19|   sensibility of a man, so as to understand and grieve that it was burthened
42  III, 25|   ignorant. How, then, will they understand those things which are said
43  III, 30|        God, learn righteousness, understand the mystery of his birth,
44   IV, 5 |        only to apply his mind to understand the utterances of the prophets,
45   IV, 13|      reason why the Jews did not understand these things was this, because
46   IV, 16|    blinded them, and they do not understand the mysteries of God." Does
47   IV, 19| prodigies, they were not able to understand their crime.~But since He
48   IV, 22| wonderful plan; and he who shall understand this, will not only cease
49   IV, 25|          men therefore learn and understand why the Most High God, when
50   IV, 26|        truth would both hear and understand the divine words of God.
51   IV, 27|   however, are blind men able to understand even from this, either that
52    V, 3 |          from the wisdom of God, understand nothing at all of those
53    V, 5 |     poetical figure; that we may understand that men were so liberal,
54    V, 8 |   through depravity; nor do they understand that they are related by
55    V, 9 |          impious, they would now understand how false they are, and
56    V, 14|          with which they fail to understand the true God; and these
57    V, 15|      sagacity, will nevertheless understand the character of the man
58    V, 18|     although I seem to myself to understand with what intention he did
59    V, 18|         of virtue, although they understand that it is very full of
60    V, 18|      themselves, for they do not understand that the committing an injury
61    V, 20|        those unhappy men neither understand from their own crimes how
62    V, 23|         and blows. From which we understand that we r are an object
63    V, 23|           who is in heaven: many understand that this is true, and admit
64   VI, 1 |         own desires; nor do they understand that God is in no want of
65   VI, 8 |        the great sea, and do not understand whither they are borne,
66   VI, 10|          possessed of sense will understand. Let us suppose, however,
67   VI, 15|       But the skilful men do not understand that when they take away
68   VI, 15|         to be healed, since they understand that they are implanted
69   VI, 20|        brothel? But who does not understand, who is ignorant what things
70   VI, 21|        adornment, that all might understand the things which He Himself
71   VI, 25|       with those who by no means understand the nature of the Divine
72  VII, 1 |       from false religions or to understand the true one? Of what avail,
73  VII, 1 |        either altogether fail to understand these things which we relate,
74  VII, 1 |           or, even if they shall understand them, they will dissemble
75  VII, 1 |       which they read and do not understand; inasmuch as, being polluted
76  VII, 2 |          For if a man is able to understand divine things, he will be
77  VII, 2 |          to perform them; for to understand is, as it were, to follow
78  VII, 2 |         therefore he cannot even understand those things which God does.
79  VII, 2 |     contains, you will assuredly understand how much the work of God
80  VII, 3 |        since they were unable to understand His power and majesty, they
81  VII, 3 |        were consistent, he would understand that it must perish because
82  VII, 4 |    itself to him who was able to understand its arrangement. For that
83  VII, 4 |          who so beholds it as to understand why it is the sun, and what
84  VII, 5 |     there might be one who might understand His works; who might be
85  VII, 9 | intercourse with heaven, fail to understand that man alone of all animals
86  VII, 15|        so that no one can easily understand them. Nevertheless the Sibyls
