Volume III. On the Unchangeableness of God. On Husbandry. Concerning Noah's Work as a Planter. On Drunkenness. On the Prayers and Curses uttered by Noah when he became Sober. Quotes

“Perhaps some very wicked persons will suspect that the lawgiver is here speaking enigmatically, when he says that the Creator repented of having created man, when he beheld their wickedness; on which account he determined to destroy the whole race. But let those who adopt such opinions as these know, that they are making light of and extenuating the offences of these men of old time, by reason of their own excessive impiety; for what can be a greater act of wickedness than to think that the unchangeable God can be changed?”
