properly distinguished and separated。 (93) Before I go further I would
expressly state (though I have said it before) that I consider the utility and
the need for Holy Scripture or Revelation to be very great。 (94) For as we
cannot perceive by the natural light of reason that simple obedience is the
path of salvation 'Endnote 25'; and are taught by revelation only that it is
so by the special grace of God; which our reason cannot attain; it follows
that the Bible has brought a very great consolation to mankind。 (95) All
are able to obey; whereas there are but very few; compared with the
aggregate of humanity; who can acquire the habit of virtue under the
unaided guidance of reason。 (96) Thus if we had not the testimony of
Scripture; we should doubt of the salvation of nearly all men。

A Theologico…Political Treatise
AUTHOR'S ENDNOTES TO THE
THEOLOGICO…POLITICAL
TREATISE
CHAPTER XI。
Endnote 24。 (1) 〃Now I think。〃 (2) The translators render the {Greek}
word 〃I infer〃; and assert that Paul uses it as synonymous with {a Greek
word}。 (3) But the former word has; in Greek; the same meaning as the
Hebrew word rendered to think; to esteem; to judge。 (4) And this
signification would be in entire agreement with the Syriac translation。 (5)
This Syriac translation (if it be a translation; which is very doubtful; for
we know neither the time of its appearance; nor the translators and Syriac
was the vernacular of the Apostles) renders the text before us in a way
well explained by Tremellius as 〃we think; therefore。〃
CHAPTER XV。
Endnote 25。 (1) 〃That simple obedience is the path of salvation。〃 (2) In
other words; it is enough for salvation or blessedness; that we should
embrace the Divine decrees as laws or commands; there is no need to
conceive them as eternal truths。 (3) This can be taught us by Revelation;
not Reason; as appears from the demonstrations given in Chapter IV。
