Who then would not like to see these benefits flow upon the world from the law, as from an inexhaustible source?... But is it possible?...

hands law omnipotence
But how shall we excuse the supine inattention of the Pagan and philosophic world to those evidences which were presented by the hand of Omnipotence, not to their reason, but to their senses?

The lame walked, the blind saw, the sick were healed, the dead were raised, daemons were expelled, and the laws of Nature were frequently suspended for the benefit of the church. Edward Gibbon
