To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
(184) Those matters which are by their naturecomprehensible we can easily explain, as has been pointed out, simply bymeans of the context.
(185) Therefore, the method of Maimonides is clearly useless: to which wemay add, that it does away with all the certainty which the masses acquireby candid reading, or which is gained by any other persons in any other way. (186) In conclusion, then, we dismiss Maimonides' theory as harmful, useless, and absurd.
(187) As to the tradition of the Pharisees, we... have already shown that it isnot consistent, while the authority of the popes of Rome stands in need ofmore credible evidence; the latter, indeed, I reject simply on this ground, for if the popes could point out to us the meaning of Scripture as surely asdid the high priests of the Jews, I should not be deterred by the fact thatthere have been heretic and impious Roman pontiffs; for among the Hebrewhigh-priests of old there were also heretics and impious men who gained thehigh- priesthood by improper means, but who, nevertheless, had Scripturalsanction for their supreme power of interpreting the law.
