Schuster, "Fray Luis de Leon and the Linguistic Approach to Epistemology," The Kentucky Foreign Language Quarterly, VI, (1959), pp. 195-200, notes this theory of parallelism in Fray Luis, but I do not think he entertains the possibility of its cabalistic significance. Gershom G. Scholem, "La Signification de la Loi dans la Mystique Juive," Diogene (Paris), XIV (1956), pp. 45-60, and XV (1957), pp. 76-114. CHRISTIAN HEBRAISM 28 is a web of divine names or attributes. Furthermore, the cabalistic mystic sees the Torah as alive and active as God is.
This was the Fortalium Fidei of Alfonso de Espina (d. c. 1491), a converted Jew and Franciscan who had risen to high places in the state, Church, and University. He inspired in the name of orthodoxy a persecution of Jews that was to last for centuries. He changed the nomenclature of Jews introduced by Pablo de Santa Mana and drawn from the teaching of Vicente Ferrer and of Aquinas. 9 The change of attitude generally provoked by Alfonso de Espina was not necessarily a change in the Thomistic tradition, at least not at that time, for he could well have based his own ideas in Occamism in which theory the Decalog is dispensable, and, incapable of being distinguished from reason's law.

Moses and Aaron are the breasts as the midrash quoted in the Pugio Fidei indicates.
