1283:1
32. Glebas hoc est mentium duritiam fregit. — Jam scilicet Dominus quorumdam mentes inlraverat, qui illum veraciter humani generis redemptorem credebant. Qui tamen cum nequaquam a pristina observatione recederent, cum dura littere praedicamenta custodirent, eis praedicator egregius dicit: Si cir cumcidamini, Christus vobis nihil proderit (Gal. v, 2). Qui ergo in humili mente fidelium legis duritiam redarguendo contrivit, quid aliud quam in valle post Domiuum glebas fregit? ne videlicet grana seminum quae excisus aratro fidei sulcus cordis exciperet per custodiam litteras 1012 pressa deperirent.

Whereof it is rightly further added:
三十二、他打碎了土塊——就是心思的剛硬。因為主已進入某些人的心思，這些人真心相信祂是人類的救贖主。然而他們卻絲毫不肯離棄先前的儀文遵守，仍謹守字句嚴苛的規條，於是那卓越的傳道者對他們說：你們若受割禮，基督就與你們無益了（加拉太書五2）。那麼，他藉責備打碎了信徒謙卑心中律法的剛硬，這豈不正是在山谷中跟隨主打碎土塊嗎？——就是說，免得那被信心之犁所開的心田溝壟所領受的種子的籽粒，因遵守字句而被壓住枯死。論到此，經上恰當地補充說：
