Coelesyria is said to have written many works, but the only one which
has come to my hand, is the one which he composed On the harmony of
divine Scripture, that is, the Scriptures of the Old and New
Testaments, against the ancient heretics who on account of
discrepancies in the injunctions of the ritual, say that the God of the
Old Testament is different from the God of the New. In
this work he shows it to have been by the dispensation of one and the
same God, the author of both Scriptures, that one law should be given
by Moses to those of old in a ritual of sacrifices and in judicial
laws, and another to us through the presence of Christ in the holy
mysteries and future promises, that they should not be considered
different, but as dictated by one spirit and one author, since these
things which if observed only according to the letter, would slay, if
observed according to the spirit, would give life to the mind. This
