Oh, how many 10 II, 9 | and water, and air, and fire, were not made by God." 11 II, 10| And as heat arises from fire, so does cold from water. 12 II, 10| God consists in heat and fire, if He had not tempered 13 II, 10| things were produced from fire Thales of Miletus from water. 14 II, 10| have been produced from fire, nor, on the other hand, 15 II, 10| on the other hand, could fire from water; but it is more 16 II, 10| from a mingling of the two. Fire, indeed, cannot be mixed 17 II, 10| mingled. The substance of fire is heat; of water, moisture. 18 II, 10| from these two. And though fire is at variance with water, 19 II, 10| ratified by the solemnity of fire and water, because the young 20 II, 10| be forbidden the use of fire and water: for as yet it 21 II, 10| immortal race, make use of fire, which is given to us as 22 II, 10| proof of immortality, since fire is from heaven; and its 23 II, 10| sentiments, since the use of fire is removed from them. But 24 II, 10| two principal elements, fire and water, He who made them 25 II, 13| contrary to each other, fire and water. For having made 26 II, 13| four elements, that is, fire, air, water, and earth; 27 II, 13| themselves something of fire, something of air, something 28 II, 13| yet that they were neither fire, nor air, nor water, nor 29 II, 13| air in the breath, that of fire in the vital heat. But neither 30 II, 13| heat from the breath, as fire from the air: so that of 31 II, 13| life. But if the soul is fire, as we have shown, it ought 32 II, 13| to mount up to heaven as fire, that it may not be extinguished; 33 II, 13| which is in heaven. And as fire cannot burn and be kept 34 II, 13| surrounded the garden itself with fire, to prevent the approach 35 II, 16| they are beaten, and are on fire, and that they are just 36 III, 17| themselves were often set on fire by lightning. And of this 37 III, 17| with lightning and set on fire not once only, but frequently. 38 III, 17| the body, to be burnt with fire, to be torn by the teeth 39 III, 19| nature of its condition, than fire can rush downwards, or, 40 III, 24| light, as mist, smoke, and fire, are borne away from the 41 IV, 14| brand plucked out of the fire. And Jesus was clothed with 42 IV, 14| a brand plucked from the fire: not did they ever stand 43 IV, 17| my fury come forth like fire, and burn that none can 44 IV, 21| everything laid waste with fire and sword, the captives 45 V, 9 | and children by sword and fire, yet are spared when conquered; 46 V, 10| the dead, and to feed the fire with the blood of men as 47 V, 13| torturers, and even the fire is unable to extort from 48 V, 19| has prepared everlasting fire for the wicked spirits; 49 VI, 11| any one were surrounded by fire, crushed by the downfall 50 VI, 11| consumed by an accidental fire, or they are overthrough 51 VI, 18| should pour water upon a fire. But if that injustice which 52 VII, 1 | that earth, and water, and fire perish, are consumed, and 53 VII, 1 | Rush into madness and fire,"~say that we bring forward 54 VII, 3 | waste by latent and internal fire. And this is not enough, 55 VII, 4 | who sails upon it? this is fire, who makes use of it?" Therefore 56 VII, 9 | opposed to one another--fire and water--of which the 57 VII, 9 | man alone makes use of fire, which is an element light, 58 VII, 9 | cannot be light without fire, so there cannot be life 59 VII, 9 | without light. Therefore fire is the element of light 60 VII, 16| shall perish; not only by fire and the sword, but also 61 VII, 16| righteousness, the sword and fire, famine and disease, shall 62 VII, 17| endeavour to injure him, fire, shall come forth out of 63 VII, 17| adore him.

But that divine fire always lives by itself, 72 VII, 21| upwards by any force, as our fire, which the taint of the 73 VII, 21| movement. The same divine fire, therefore, with one and 74 VII, 21| will also try them with fire. Then they whose sins shall 75 VII, 21| shall be scorched by the fire and burnt: but they whom 76 VII, 21| imbued will not perceive that fire; for they have something 77 VII, 23| the wicked to darkness in fire. But as many as are holy 78 VII, 26| days, and shall set it on fire; and excessive heat and 79 VII, 26| hailstones, and drops of fire; and their spirits shall 80 VII, 26| for ever with perpetual fire in the sight of angels and
