Translation
[Meaning] that one; but au(/th ["this"] [is used] demonstratively.1
Also [sc. attested is the phrase] "this [is] the day, which the Lord made."2 [i.e.] this [is] the Lord's Passover, March 25. So if the Christ rose on the third day, as he himself said, "It is necessary for the Son of Man to be killed and to rise again on the third day,"3 why is the resurrection of the Lord called the eighth [day]? It is called the third from the Passion and the Cross, but eighth from the Creation and the Resurrection. For the beginning of the phenomenal world came on it, and Christ the true light arose on it.4
