{False witnesses of God} (pseudomartures tou theou). Late
word, but pseudomarture(935c), to bear false witness, old and
common. The genitive (	ou theou) can be either subjective (in
God's service) or objective (concerning God). Either makes good
sense. {Because we witnessed of God} (hoti emartur(8873)amen kata
tou theou). Vulgate has _adversus Deum_. This is the more
natural way to take kata and genitive, {against God} not as
equal to peri (concerning). He would indeed make God play false
in that case, {if so be that the dead are not raised} (eiper ara
nekroi ouk egeirontai). Condition of first class, assumed as
true. Note both per intensive particle {indeed} and ara
inferential particle {therefore}.
