⁵¹⁶ Censum dare.

⁵¹⁷ Reading "sermonem, et ostendere ut intelligi dignum est." The Codex Bobiensis gives a mutilated version: "sermonem, ut intelligi, dignum est."

⁵¹⁸ Reading "Moysi scientis," which is the emendation of Valesius. But Codex Casinensis gives "scientibus," and Codex Bobiensis has "scientes."

⁵¹⁹ Ex. ii.

⁵²⁰ Matt. ii. 13.

⁵²¹ Ex. xiv.

⁵²² Mark viii. 15.

⁵²³ Ex. xvi.

⁵²⁴ Adopting "satiavit." The Codex Bobiensis gives "saturavit."

⁵²⁵ Matt. xiv.

⁵²⁶ Ex. xxxiv.

⁵²⁷ Matt. iv. 2.

⁵²⁸ Ex. xii.

⁵²⁹ Matt. ii. 16.

⁵³⁰ Ex. viii.

⁵³¹ Luke xxiii. 34.

⁵³² Ex. xxxiv. 35.

⁵³³ Matt. xvii. 2.

⁵³⁴ Ex. xxxii.

⁵³⁵ Matt. x. 34.

⁵³⁶ Ex. xxiv. 18.

⁵³⁷ Matt. xiv. 25.

⁵³⁸ Ex. xiv.

⁵³⁹ Reading "in mari." But the Codex Bobiensis has in navi = on a ship.

⁵⁴⁰ Matt. viii. 26.

⁵⁴¹ Ex. xvii.

⁵⁴² The text gives in justis. But the Codex Bobiensis has in istis = in those men. The true reading may be in injustis = in the unrighteous. See Eph. ii. 2.

⁵⁴³ But the Codex Casinensis gives "Deus omnium" = the God of all.

⁵⁴⁴ [See p. 215, supra]

⁵⁴⁵ Ex nominibus. The Codex Bobiensis offers the extraordinary reading, ex navibus.

⁵⁴⁶ Ingenita.

⁵⁴⁷ We read, with the Codex Bobiensis, "dicat homini, Loca mihi," etc. The Codex Casinensis has the meaningless reading, "homini diviti," etc.

⁵⁴⁸ Praesta.

⁵⁴⁹ The text of this obscure passage runs thus: "Quia ex quo duo sunt, ingenitam habentes naturam, ex eo necesse est etiam habere unumquemque ipsorum vetus Testamentum. et fient duo vetera 'I'estamenta; si tamen ambos antiquos et sine initio esse dicis." The Codex Bobiensis gives a briefer but evidently corrupt reading. "ex quo duo sunt ingenita habentes naturam ipsorum Testamentum, et fient," etc.

⁵⁵⁰ Jamnem dico et Mambrem. [So in Vulg., except "Jannes."]

⁵⁵¹ 2 Tim. iii. 8, 9.

⁵⁵² Gratiam gratia praestare et differre. John i. 16.

⁵⁵³ John v. 45-47.

⁵⁵⁴ The Codex Bobiensis gives, "exponere et a Patre ut convenit." For these meaningless words Valesius proposed to read, "exponere et aperire ut convenit." The Codex Casinensis, however, offers the satisfactory reading, "exponere et aptare convenit."

⁵⁵⁵ Here ends the section edited by Valesius.

⁵⁵⁶ Castellum. [Note, infra, the "holy kiss."]

⁵⁵⁷ The text runs: "tametsi prudentiam, gloriam etiam, nostrorum nonnulli assecuti sunt, tamen hoc vos deprecor ut eorum quae ante me dicta sunt, testimonium reservetis." Routh suggests prudentia = Although by their prudence some have gained glory, etc.

⁵⁵⁸ Pro ipsius impossibilitate. But Routh suggests that the impossibiIitate is just an inexact translation of the a0dunati/a = impotentia, incapacity, which may have stood in the Greek text.

⁵⁵⁹ Reading "Marcelli viri illustris gratia." The Codex Casinensis has, "viri in legis gratia."

⁵⁶⁰ Matt. vii. 24.

⁵⁶¹ The text gives "similis facere astrologo," for which Routh proposes "similis factus est," etc.

⁵⁶² Matt. x. 28.

⁵⁶³ The text is, "quibus utique repensari non possunt," etc. Routh proposes repensare.

⁵⁶⁴ Reading "sicut vox Jesu." The Codex Casinensis gives, "sicut vos Jesu." Routh suggests servator.

⁵⁶⁵ John i. 18, iii. 13.

⁵⁶⁶ Matt. x. 40.

⁵⁶⁷ John vi. 38.

⁵⁶⁸ Matt. xv. 24.

⁵⁶⁹ Matt. xii. 47.

⁵⁷⁰ The text gives, "Virgo castissima et immaculata ecclesia," = the most pure virgin and spotless church. But the word "ecclesia" is probably an erroneous addition by the hand of the scribe. Or, as Routh hints, there may be an allusion, in the word ecclesia, to the beginning of the twelfth chapter of the Apocalypse. [See Pearson, On the Creed, art. iii. p. 290.]

⁵⁷¹ From this it may perhaps be gathered that Marcellus had now come along with Archelaus to the residence of Diodorus.

⁵⁷² Scribere ausas est. Compare (note 1) p. 224, infra.

⁵⁷³ Matt. xxii. 42. We read Davidis esse for David Jesse.

⁵⁷⁴ Matt. xvi. 16.

⁵⁷⁵ The text gives, "Quod si prior fefellit, causa ad scriptorem rejicienda est." [i.e., to the copyist; in this case the corrupter.]

⁵⁷⁶ Consonantibus duntaxat.

⁵⁷⁷ Phil. ii. 9.

⁵⁷⁸ Sibi ipsi.

⁵⁷⁹ Secundum id quod scriptorem fefellit. [i.e. on that supposition.]

⁵⁸⁰ 1 Cor. xiii. 11.

⁵⁸¹ Phil. iii. 13.

⁵⁸² Reading "debuitne etiam" for the bad version of the Codex Casinensis, "debuit et etiam."

⁵⁸³ The text gives, "se ipso judicante," for which "te ipso," etc., may be substituted.

⁵⁸⁴ In the Codex Casinensis the sentence stands in this evidently corrupt form: "cum enim peccatis bonus et gravatus ad discipulatum diligit." We adopt the emendation given in Migne: "cum enim peccatis onustos et gravatos ad discipulatum delegit."

⁵⁸⁵ Matt. x. 37.

⁵⁸⁶ I.uke ix. 59, 60.

⁵⁸⁷ Propitius esto, Domine.

⁵⁸⁸ Matt. xvi. 22. [Possibly the first words by which Satan fell.]

⁵⁸⁹ Matt. xvi. 21.

⁵⁹⁰ Matt. xvi. 23. [Satan seems to have rebelled against man's creation.]

⁵⁹¹ Luke iv. 34, reading sanctus Deus [i e., not the received text.]

⁵⁹² Reading silere. The Codex Casinensis gives sinire, which may be meant for sinere = give over.

⁵⁹³ Pro accidentium salute.

⁵⁹⁴ We have adopted Migne's arrangement of these clauses. Routh, however, puts them thus: And that it may be made more intelligible to you, etc.,... (for in forgetfulness, etc., you have turned off, etc.), listen to me now for a brief space.

⁵⁹⁵ Reading "pondus belli toleraverant," instead of the "pondus bellico tolerarant" of the Codex Casinensis.

⁵⁹⁶ 1 Cor. xv. 32.

⁵⁹⁷ Salva.

⁵⁹⁸ Gal. iv. 4. The reading is, "cum autem fuit Dei voluntas in nobis." The Vulgate, following the ordinary Greek text, gives, "at ubi venit plenitudo temporis." And so Irenaeus, Tertullian, Cyprian, etc. [This should have been in the margin of the Revised Version.]

⁵⁹⁹ 1 Cor. v. 7.

⁶⁰⁰ 1 Cor. vi. 14. The text here inserts the words cum illo, which are found neither in the Greek, nor in the Vulgate, nor in Irenaeus, Adv. Haeres., v. 6, 7 [vol. i. pp. 530, 532, this series], nor in Tertullian, Adv. Marc., v. 7, etc. [vol. iii. p. 443, this series]. According to Sabatier, however, they are found in Jerome, Ep. ad Amand.

⁶⁰¹ Reading in vobis. But the Codex Casinensis seems to give in nobis, amongst us.

⁶⁰² But the Codex Casinensis seems to make it fides nostra, our faith.

⁶⁰³ Initium.

⁶⁰⁴ 1 Cor. xv. 12-20.

⁶⁰⁵ Distinctio.

⁶⁰⁶ Gal. iii. 1. The word in the text is rescriptus est. The Vulgate gives praescriptus est. The Vetus Itala proscriptus est.

⁶⁰⁷ Minor.

⁶⁰⁸ Matt. xi. 11.

⁶⁰⁹ It would seem that Archelaus read the passage in Matthew as meaning, notwithstanding, he that is less, is, in the kingdom of heaven, greater than he. Thus, he that is less is understood to be Jesus in His natural relations. [A very lean and hungry proculdubio of the author.]

⁶¹⁰ Routh appends a note here which may be given. It is to this effect: I am afraid that Archelaus has not expressed with sufficient correctness the mystery of the Divine Incarnation, in this passage as well as in what follows; although elsewhere he has taught that the Lord Jesus was conceived by divine power, and in ch. xxxiv. has called the Virgin Mary Dei genetrix, Qeoto/koj. For at the time of the Saviour's baptism the Holy Spirit was not given in His first communication with the Word of God (which Word, indeed, had been united with the human nature from the time of the conception itself), but was only received by the Christ a0nQrwpi/nwj and oi0konomikw=j, and for the sake of men. See Cyril of Alexandria, De Rectâ Fide, xxxiv. vol. v. 2, p. 153, editio Auberti. [Routh, R.S., vol. v. p. 178.]
