This article is a response to Steven Enderlein on the translation of Rom 3:23 and its implications for the πίστις Χριστοῦ debate.

If we are to believe Seneca, Ovid excelled to such a degree that he even surpassed his teachers. He took special interest in exercises concerning ethos, and is said to have transferred what he learned into his own verse. The influence from rhetorical training is indeed visible in O
