34. Irenaeus writes that the Marcosians "by garbling passages of Scripture, they try to persuade us concerning their Forefather, who was unknown to all before the coming of Christ. Their object in this is to show that our Lord announced another Father than the Maker of this universe, whom, as we said before, they impiously declare to have been the fruit of a defect. For instance, when the prophet Isaiah says, "But Israel hath not known Me, and My people have not understood Me," they pervert his words to mean ignorance of the invisible depth." [AH i.19.1]Clement of Alexandria writes "'The ox,' it is said, 'knoweth his owner, and the ass his master’s crib; but Israel hath not known Me.' What, then, of the Lord? He remembers not our ill desert; He still pities, He still urges us to repentance. And I would ask you, if it does not appear to you monstrous, that you men who are God’s handiwork, who have received your souls from Him, and belong wholly to God, should be subject to another master, and, what is more, serve the tyrant instead of the rightful King—the evil one instead of the good?"
