For let us suppose an ima- ginary case. If ye were not such as ye are, nor of such an origin, and any one should show you the generating substance, and a painted representation (of the human form), and should persist ...in affirming that the one could be produced from the other, would ye believe him before ye saw the effect produced ? No one would be bold enough to assert, that ye would. In the same manner, ye now disbelieve, because ye never saw a dead man raised to life. But even, as ye would not at first have believed, that from a little drop of seminal matter such bodies could be formed, which yet, ye see, are formed ; so consider that it is not impossible for human bodies, decomposed, and, like seed, resolved into earth, to arise, in due season, at the command of God, and to put on incorruption \ We pretend not ^ The argument here used by Justin is frequently employed by the early Christian writers.
