to show different energies. Cap.1.28 28. That he supposed in vain that an unalterable sequence could be established in the harmony of natures. Cap.1.29 29. That he thought in vain to resolve the ambiguity in the energies from the essences, and vice versa. Cap.1.30 30. That there is no divine word that commands to seek such things; in which was also demonstrated the futility of philosophy in these matters. Cap.1.31 31. That the understanding through providence is sufficient for the knowledge of the identity in essence. Cap.1.32 32. That inconceivable is the assertion of the one who said that the mode of generation follows the mode of likeness.Cap.1.33 33. That he declared in vain that the mode of generation is demonstrated by the natural worth of the begetter. Cap.1.34 34. A mention of the things spoken by him for the slander of the homoousion, and a refutation of what was said. Cap.1.35 35. A demonstration that the dogma of the Anomoeans inclines toward Manichaeism.Cap.1.36 30. A mention again of the ecclesiastical dogma in passing. Cap.1.37 37. A defense of the things said by the blessed Basil but slandered by this man, in which our [teacher] says that the appellation <of the> Father and that of the Unbegotten can signify the same meaning. Cap.1.38 38. A refutation against his sophistic syllogisms through several arguments. xap.1.39 39. An answer to the question brought forward by him, if "He who is" is begotten. Cap.1.40 40. That he feebly attempted to defend himself, having been refuted by the blessed Basil. Cap.1.41 41. That what follows is not the same as that which it followed. Cap.1.42 42. An explanation of the meaning of "unbegotten" and a contemplation of "eternal". Cap.2.1 1. The second book teaches the incarnation of God the Word and the faith given by the Lord to the disciples, and says that the heretics who subvert this and have invented other names are from their father the devilCap.2.2 2. Then it will go through an explanation in several points of the eternal Father and Son and Holy Spirit. Cap.2.3 3. Next, the unnameableness of the name of the Holy Trinity and the relation of the persons to one another and also the unknowability of the essence and his condescension to us and the birth from the virgin and his second coming and the resurrection from the dead and the retribution. Cap.2.4 4. After this he most wisely refutes the detailed, empty and blasphemous exposition of Eunomius concerning "being".Cap.2.5 5. Then he wonderfully overthrows the inconceivability of the sayings of Eunomius, which say that the essence of the Father is not separated or divided or becomes something else. Cap.2.6 6. And so then he shows the unity of the Son with the Father, and Eunomius's uninitiated and foolish grasp of the scriptures. Cap.2.7 7. In addition to these things he shows that not only the only-begotten from the Father, but also having been begotten impassibly of the Holy Spirit from the virgin, did not divide the essence, but neither is human nature when begotten from those who give birth divided or split, as was most wisely demonstrated from both Adam and Abraham. Cap.2.8 8. On top of these things he will go through very fittingly the interpretation of "only-begotten" and "firstborn," spoken four times by the apostle. Cap.2.9 9. Then again, having systematically treated the generation of the only-begotten and other different, both material and immaterial generations, he magnificently demonstrates the Son to be the radiance of glory and not a creature. Cap.2.10 10. Next, having examined in various ways the saying "The Lord created me" and the account concerning the beginning of the Son, and the deceitfulness of the sayings of Eunomius and the saying that says "My glory I will not give to another," he has interpreted them well. Cap.2.11 11. Then, having clarified the worth of the Almighty and the eternity of the only-begotten and "having become obedient," he shows the foolishness of Eunomius in saying that he did not receive being Son from obedience. Cap.2.12 12. And so then the interpretation of "mediator," of "like" and "unbegotten" and "begotten," and "image"
