Tanrı'nın Aydınlattığı Kardeşliğin Yankısı

From God's Word we know that when God the Lord initially created man, He gave him not only the external, visible, and tangible body, but also the inner, invisible, and intangible soul, which in Holy Scripture is sometimes called the inner man, who was created according to God's image and therefore endowed with Divine Wisdom. Although this wisdom was considerably obscured and darkened in the first man through the Fall, Adam nevertheless retained all kinds of knowledge and sciences in his memory even after the Fall, especially the way by which one can again come to the attainment of such Wisdom of God. There are now, accordingly, many of this opinion: that Noah was instructed by Adam, and thus by his ancestors, in all kinds of arts. This same Noah then afterwards instructed his son in them. Of him the Talmudists write that he was the first to establish a school where all kinds of doctrines were learned. In this school, Abraham, as well as his grandson Jacob, were instituted and instructed in wisdom and the means by which it should be attained.
