[2185] Comana seems to have been a town of Pamphylia. At least a bishop of Comana is mentioned in the epistle of the bishops of Pamphylia to Leo Augustus, cited in the third part of the Council of Chalcedon, p. 391. [See p. 335, note 9, supra.]
[2186] Themison was a person of note among the Montanists, who boasted of himself as a confessor and martyr, and had the audacity to write a catholic epistle to the churches like an apostle, with the view of commending the new prophecy to them. See Euseb., v. 18.
[2187] ἐν τοι̑ς περὶ Γάϊον … μαρτυρήσασι. It may be intended for, “In the case of the martyrs Caius and Alexander.”
[2188] Migne is of opinion that there has been an interchange of names between this passage and the Exordium, and that we should read Miltiades here, and Alcibiades there. But see Exordium, note 3, p. 335. [And compare Eusebius, book v. cap. 3, where two of this name are mentioned; also Ibid., cap. 17.]
[2189] This seems to be the sense of the text, which appears to be imperfect here: ὰλλ' οὐκ ἂν ἒχοιεν σει̑ξαι τεσσαρεσκαιδέκατον ἤδη που του̑το ἐτος ἀπὸ τη̑ς Μαξιμίλλης τελευτη̑ς.
[2190] Vol. ii. p. 3, this series.
[2192] London, Macmillans, 1885. Refer to part ii. vol. i. pp. 476–485.
[2193] See p. 335, supra, note 2.
[2194] Lightfoot also gives a reference to Migne’s Patrologia, vol. cxv. p. 1211.
[2195] See p. 333, supra. “There is no clue to the authorship” of the fragments, says the translator; but, under the lead of a Lightfoot, who may not hope to find one? I commend the quarry to studious readers.
