Introductory Notice to Cyprian.
[2928] [Peter and Paul could not be quoted, then, as speaking by the mouth of any one bishop; certainly not by any prerogative of his See. See Guettée, The Papacy, p. 119. New York, 1866.]
[2929] Literally, “in the vanity (or unreality) of a baptism.”
[2930] These words in italics are conjecturally interpolated, but have no authority.
[2931] [Another use of this word as generic for all but deacons.]
[2932] [A provincial council of the East; and note, in Asia, not Europe.]
[2934] Facere. [Demoniacs. See Apost. lessons, so called, lxxix.]
[2944] John xx. 22, 23. [The two texts here quoted lie at the base of Cyprian’s own theory; (1) to Peter alone this gift to signify its singleness, (2) then the same to all the apostles alone to signify their common and undivided partnership in the use of this gift. Note the two alones and one therefore. And see Treatise I. infra.]
[2945] [Cyprian’s theory is thus professed by the Orient.]
[2946] [This place and succession are conceded in the argument; but Stephen himself does not appear to have claimed to be the Rock or to exercise the authority of Peter. Vol. iii. p. 266.]
[2947] [Stephen abolishes the Rock, and “deserts unity;” here, then, is evidence that he was not the one, nor the criterion of the other.]
[2948] [The Roman custom seems to have been a local tradition, to which more general custom is opposed. See p. 375, supra.]
