The Proclamation of Christ's Knowledge
It is being passed down, and is almost known by them alone. Since at one time the nations were instructed through the mingling with the Jews to know the God over all, so also our Savior Jesus Christ, having come to dwell in the flesh among the world, sends his own disciples as his heralds of the knowledge.
While it was being obscured in the times, it is to be preached in the last times, who also, wandering everywhere, were announcing Christ God, begotten of God without beginning and without time, testifying at the same time by the holy and illuminating Spirit, that he completes the consubstantial Trinity, providing it from the Father through the Son unto men. Having been struck by the wisdom of his dispensation, he sends back the glory which is owed to God.

παραδιδόμενον, σχεδὸν δὲ ὑπὸ μόνων αὐτῶν γνωριζόμενον. ἐπειδὴ δήποτε ἐπαιδεύθη τὰ ἔθνη διὰ τῆς τῶν Ἰουδαίων ἐπιμιξίας τὸν ἐπὶ πάντων γνωρίζειν θεόν, 14 τηνικαῦτα καὶ ὁ σωτὴρ ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦς Χριστὸς ἐν σαρκὶ ἐπιδημήσας τῷ κόσμῳ, τοὺς ἑαυτοῦ μαθητὰς ἀποστέλλει κήρυκας αὐτοῦ τῆς γνώσεως. διαλανθανούσης μὲν ἐν χρόνοις, κηρυχθησομένης δὲ ἐν ἐσχάτοις καιροῖς, οἳ καὶ πανταχόσε φοιτῶντες κατήγγελλον τὸν Χριστὸν θεὸν ἐκ θεοῦ ἀνάρχως καὶ ἀχρόνως γεγεννημένον, μαρτυροῦντες ἅμα καὶ τῷ ἁγίῳ καὶ φωτιστικῷ πνεύματι, ὅτι τὴν ὁμοούσιον τριάδα συμπληροῖ ἐκ πατρὸς δι' υἱοῦ εἰς ἀνθρώπους χορηγούμενον. τῆς οἰκονομίας οὖν αὐτοῦ τὴν σοφίαν καταπλαγεὶς τὴν ὀφειλομένην ἀναπέμπει δόξαν τῷ θεῷ. 15
