Bellarmine: Paul taught when Antichrist would come — Augustine says we cannot know it
Bellarmine's press: not everything Paul taught later landed in writing.
2 Thess: you know what restrains — he had said these things when present.
The calendar of Antichrist's coming is nowhere written.
Augustine Civ. Dei 20: hearers knew by living voice; we who did not hear cannot know that point.
Latin
XVII. Sed instat Bellarminus, non omnia quae Apostolus docuit scriptis postea fuisse comprehensa. Nam, inquit, Apostolus in hoc ipso capite indicat se docuisse Thessalonicenses quando Antichristus venturus esset, & quid adventum ejus moraretur. Et nunc, inquit, quid detineat scitis. Et nunc retinet, quia quum essem apud vos, haec dicebam vobis. Hoc autem nusquam scriptum est, quando, scilicet, sit venturus Antichristus. Quare beatus Augustinus lib. 20. de Civit. Dei, dicit illos scivisse quod Apostolus docuerat viva voce, nos autem non posse id scire qui Apostolum non audivimus. Ergo non omnia scripta sunt quae Apostolus dixit.
