Introductory Notice to Constitutions of the Holy Apostles.
[3517] 2 Chron. xxxv. Cotelerius conjectures “in his Passover,” instead of “in Phassa.” [A very probable textual emendation.—R.]
[3524] 1 Macc. i.,. etc.
[3525] One V. ms. reads, “with Christ and the Holy Spirit.”
Sec. III.—On the Instruction of Catechumens, and Their Initiation into Baptism.
[3530] [Compare Justin Martyr, vol. i. p. 183, this series.]
[3531] One V. ms. has “Son” instead of “God.” Cotelerius remarks that this change was made in the interests of orthodoxy; for the expression “only begotten God” had become common with the Arians. [Comp. John i. 18., where the most weighty ancient authorities read μονογενὴς θεός instead of ὁ μονογενὴς υιός; see Revised Version, margins in loco.—R.]
[3532] [Compare vol. ii. p. 535 and vol. iii. p. 31.]
[3534] One V. ms. reads, “with whom glory be to Thee, along with the Holy Spirit.”
Sec. IV.—Enumeration Ordained by Apostles.
[3535] [An incidental proof of the early origin of this compilation is furnished by the clear distinction it makes between James the son of Alphæus and James the brother of our Lord. The theory of Jerome, which identifies them, was later.—R.]
