A Treatise on the Spirit and the Letter

In "De Spiritu et Littera," the author responds to an inquiry regarding the possibility of a sinless life through divine assistance, despite the absence of any living example. The treatise delves into the apostle's assertion, “The letter kills, but the spirit giveth life,” while critically engaging with those who challenge the grace of God that justifies Jewish observances. The author also addresses the concept of abstaining from certain foods, encapsulated in the term "ceremonies of certain meats," emphasizing a specific understanding of this phrase in relation to true religion.
