Introductory Notice to Archelaus.
[1651] The Codex Casinensis has “nec mirum putandum est consortio,” etc. We read with Routh and others, si ejus consortio, or quod ejus consortio, etc.
[1653] The text gives simply, sicut enim hæc. Routh suggests hæ.
[1654] Reading illæsis oculis for the illius oculis of Codex Casinensis.
[1656] The text gives et jam quidem for the etiam quidem of the Cod. Casin.
[1658] Apprehensus est hoc ingenio. For hoc here, Routh suggests hic in reference to the leo so that the sense might be = But by this plan the lion was caught, and hereafter He will save the soul.
[1659] The text is, “Quando enim pastor, nonne David de ore leonis,” etc. We adopt the amended reading, “Quando enim pastor hoc fecit? Nonne David,” etc.
[1660] Routh would put this interrogatively = Can he bring out of the mouth or the belly of the lion what it has once devoured?
[1661] This seems to be the sense intended. The text in the Codex Casinensis runs thus: “Cur igitur quod possit non illud potius asseris quod poterit propria virtute vincere leonem, si et pura Dei potentia,” etc. For si et pura we may read sive pura, or si est pura, etc.
[1662] Routh takes it as a direct assertion = It follows, then, that these two objects are of one substance, etc.
[1663] The text runs, “sed aliud alio longe differre ignorantiam pastori ascribimus;” for which we adopt the emendation, “sed alium ab alio longe differre si dicamus, ignorantiam pastori ascribimus.”
[1664] Migne reads irrueret. Routh gives irruerat, had made an assault.
[1665] The text gives si causa traditus, etc. Routh suggests sive causa. Traditus, etc.; so that the sense would be, For on what creature can the shepherd of the kids and lambs pronounce judgment, seeing that he is himself proved to be in fault to them, or to be the cause of their position? For the lamb, having been given up, etc.
[1666] Reading eum ipse for eum ipsum.
[1667] Reading si quis for the simple quis of Codex Casinensis.
[1668] Reading “quæstione rejecta” for the relecta of Codex Casinensis.
[1669] This seems to be the general sense of the corrupt text here, et non longe possit ei Paulus, etc., in which we must either suppose something to have been lost, or correct it in some such way as this: “ut non longe post sit ei Paulus.” Compare what Manes says also of Paul and himself in ch. xiii. above. It should be added, however, that another idea of the passage is thrown out in Routh. According to this the ei refers to Jesus, and the text being emended thus, etsi non longe post sit ei, the sense would be: although not long after His departure He had Paul as an elect vessel, etc. The allusion thus would be to the circumstance that Manes made such a claim as he did, in spite of the fact that after Christ’s departure Paul was gifted with the Spirit in so eminent a measure for the building up of the faithful.
[1670] Reading aiebat for the agebat of Codex Casinensis.
[1671] 2 Cor. xiii. 3. The reading here is, “Aut documentum quæritis,” etc. The Vulgate also gives An experimentum, for the Greek ἐπεί, etc.
