In context
21For at the time when God created man, He implanted within him his passions and moral nature.
22And at that time He enthroned above all the holy leader mind, through the medium of the senses.
— 4 Maccabees 2:23 —
24How, then, a man may say, if reasoning be master of the passions, has it no control over forgetfulness and ignorance?
