[2853] Or otherwise, “and other plagues of heretics subverting the truth with their swords and poisons.”
[2854] Matt. xxviii. 18, 19. [Elucidation XVII.]
[2855] Jer. xv. 18 (LXX.).

[2857] [This sounds like Ignatius himself, whose style abounds in aphorisms. See vol. i. p. 45.]
[2859] John vi. 37, 38. [This quotation is amended by me, in strict accordance with the (ἐκ τῆς κοιλίας) Greek, which refers to the nobler cavity, not the inferior, of the human body.]
