objects:
nIn ancient times,
miracles were thought to be everyday occurrences.
nThe ancients did not
know enough about natural law to distinguish a
miracle from a natural event.

nNot all ancients
believed in miracles, e.g., Sadducees, Epicureans.
nNone of JesusŐ
miracles are easily explained as natural events.
