Introductory Note to Clement of Alexandria
[3340] The clause within brackets has been suggested by Hervetus to complete the sense.
[3341] That is, 1+3+5+7+11+13+15=120; and 1+3=4+5=9+7=16+9=25+11=36+13=49+15=64, giving us the numbers 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, the squares of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8.
[3342] ἐτερομήκεις, the product of two unequal factors, i.e., 2+4+6+8+10+12+14=56; and 2+4=6=3 x 2, 6+4=10=5 x 2, and so on.
[3343] The cross.

[3348] i.e., of Christ.
[3349] 1 Cor. x. 26, etc.
[3350] ψάλλοντες is substituted by Lowth for ψάλλειν of the text; ἐν τῷ ψάλλειν has also been proposed.
[3352] Ps. xlv. 14. [Elucidation VII.]
[3353] διδακτικήν, proposed by Sylburgius, seems greatly preferable to the reading of the text, διδακτήν, and has been adopted above.
[3354] Wisd. vi. 10.
[3355] Wisd. vii. 16.
[3356] Wisd. xiv. 2, 3.
[3357] That is, resurrection effected by divine power.
[3358] Such seems the only sense possible of this clause,—obtained, however, by substituting for συνάλογοι λόγοὐ κ.τ.λ., σύλλογοι λόγον κ.τ.λ.
