Introductory Note to Clement of Alexandria
[1999] [He thus expounds the Ecclesia.]
[2003] Eph. iv. 24-25, 27:27–29.
Chapter XIX.—That the Philosophers Have Attained to Some Portion of Truth.
[2006] Viz., “The Unknown God.” [Hereafter to be noted.]
[2007] [Not in the original with Socrates, but a common adage:—
Multi thyrsigeri, pauci Bacchi.
The original Greek hexameter is given by Erasmus, in his Adagia (p. 650), with numerous equivalents, among which take this: Non omnes episcopi qui mitram gerunt bicornem. He reminds us that Plato borrows it in the Phœdo, and he quotes the parallel sayin of Herodes Atticus, “I see a beard and a cloak, but as yet do not discover the philosopher.”]
[2008] There is no such utterance in the Demodocus. But in the Amatores, Basle Edition, p. 237, Plato says: “But it is not so, my friend: nor is it philosophizing to occupy oneself in the arts, nor lead a life of bustling, meddling activity, nor to learn many things; but it is something else. Since I, at least, would reckon this a reproach; and that those who devote themselves to the arts ought to be called mechanics.”
[2009] According to the emendations of Menagius: “ὡς ἄρα ὴ πολυμά θεια γοον οὐχὶ διδάσκει.”
[2010] [Sect. xix. xx. p. 475.]
[2011] Adopting the emendations, δεῖ ἐπιστήμης instead of δἰ ἐπιστήμης, and τἀγαθῶν for τάγαθοῦ, omitting ὡσπερ.
[2012] προαναφώνησις.
[2013] συνεκφώνησις.
