ἐγείρονται. Literally, “are being raised”—the present of eternal certainty.

καὶ Μωϋσῆς. The argument is à fortiori, as though our Lord would say “the Prophets prove it abundantly, but I will not quote them. You quote Moses to throw doubt on the Resurrection; but even Moses, &c.”

ἐμήνυσεν. ‘Disclosed,’ or revealed.

ἐπὶ τῆς βάτου. ‘In the Bush,’ Vulg[351] in libro super rubum, i.e. in that section of Exodus (Exodus 3) which they called by that name, just as they called 2 Samuel 1 ‘the Bow’ and Ezekiel 1 ‘the Chariot.’ Comp. “in Elias,” Romans 11:2 (marg.).

[351] Vulg. Vulgate.
