The fourth and last sentence for today, from Origen's Homilies on Luke.
'Prudenti coepisse dixisse est; licet et hoc ipsum temerarium sit super tali re in populo coepisse sermonem.'
Here is an attempt to interpret it.
'For a considerate person, to begin means to say. Even starting to explain this to people would be unreasonable.'
Here is the context. Not everyone has his own ruler. For example, an Egyptian person has not a 'personal ruler', but the one who is the ruler of Egypt. And then comes this sentence.
Could you please explain what it could mean?
Phew! Sorry for posting several questions at once. There are not many questions left.
Thank you.
