Ante-Nicene Fathers Vol. 2
(Ultimate Issues, cap. xiii. [119]p. 504.) With reference to the choice of Judas to be an apostle, and like mysteries, this seems to me a bit of calm philosophy, worthy of the childlike faith of the early Christians. I confess great obligations to a neglected American author, with reference to such discussions (see Bledsoe, Theodicy, New York, 1854).
