SCRIPTURE

"a corrector of the foolish, a teacher of babes, having in the law the form of knowledge and of the truth;" — Romans 2:20 (ASV)

The form of knowledge and of the truth.—As we might say, “the presentation of knowledge and of truth.” Here not form as opposed to substance, but as implying substance—“presentation,” or “embodiment.”
