Curious, does this have an ascription in Gerhard? It sounds like a quotation of St. Augustine.
No ascription. He quoted Augustine and every other father and his uncle about a thousand times already, though!
OK, I found this in Augustine, tractate 9 on the Gospel of St. John, section 5: “Non sapit vetus Scriptura si non Christus in ea intelligatur.” That might be it. http://www.ccel.org/ccel/schaff/npnf107.iii.x.htmlGreat quote, btw. :)
