Book excerpt: Excerpt from Analecta Theologica, Vol. 2 of 2: A Critical, Philological, and Exegetical Commentary on the New Testament Such is the main substance of Philo's Opinion respecting the Locos. Upon closer examination, however, he appears to have entertained a confused notion of his attributes, asserting his in capability of assuming a visible form, and of becoming an oyect perceptible to the senses. The origin of these discordant ideas is easily accounted for. Since not only Plato, but Pythagoras, and Zeno likewise, conversed with the J ews, and derived from them many of their notions and expressions; it is not at all won derful that we meet with something about a Oe'ioc Adyoc in their writings; and b so. Reciprocit of communication Philo, who was well versed in t e dogmas o the Heathen philosophers, as na turally imbibed many of their tenets, and mixed them up with the pure and sublime Theology of the Jewish creed. In the same cause most probabl originated the various heresies which sprung u in the church most immediately after our Lord's ascension, which, for the most rt, consisted in a confused jumble of Pla tonic and Christian heology, so unintelligibly united, that it is matter of surprise how they could have spread so rapidly, and col lected so many adherents. Against these heresies, however, which had already ap ared in the time of the Evangelist, and of the in crease of whic he was rhaps divinely forewarned, as well as to rectify the errors of e Jewish converts, who had in general cherished the notions of Philo, St. J ohn's preface seems to have been especially directed. On this subject the student is referred to Horne's Introd. Vol. Iv.p. 317. Sqq. It will be advisable, how ever, to advert to the errors of modern Socinians, and to their futile endeavours to explain away the strong expressions of St. John in regard to the divinity of Christ.
