Introductory Notice to Cyprian.

[3052] [Matt. x. 19. There is something sublime in the martyr’s reliance upon this word of Jesus. See sec. 2, infra, and Elucidation XXII.]

[3053] [Recur to the passion of this holy martyr as related by Pontius, his deacon, p. 390. Stephen had broken communion with him (see p. 390 note) and the African provinces, which had no effect upon his Catholic status. (See letter of Firmillian, p. 391 note.) But, on the Roman theory, this glorious martyr died in schism. He is, nevertheless, a canonized saint in the Roman Calendar. Elucidation XXII.]

I. (The presbyterate and the priesthood, p. 268.)

[3054] Cap. xv. 15, 16, compared with Mal. i. 11.

[3055] Revised Version, margin. Rather, “ministering hierurgically.”

[3056] For which, see vol. vii., this series.

[3057] See the Trent Catechism, cap. iv. quæstt. 73, 75.

II. (To do nothing on my own private opinion, p. 283.)

[3058] Epistle xxiii. and Elucidation III.

[3059] Proposals, etc., by the Reverend Ministers of the Presbyterian Persuasion, London, 1661. An extract may be found in Leighton’s Works, p. 637 Edinburgh, 1840.

[3060] Catechism of the Council of Trent, cap. vii. quæst. 12.

III. (According to the Lord’s discipline, p. 292.)

[3061] See the said work, p. 41.

[3062] Bishop Whittingham quotes the edition of Gerard Vossius, pp. 286–291.

[3063] Church Review, vol. xi. 1859, pp. 88–127.

V. (Counsel and judgment of all…a common cause, p. 296.)

[3064] Consult Epistles xxv. (sec. 6, p. 304) and xxx. (sec. 5, p. 310), supra. It is interesting to note how the primitive clergy of Rome recognise this free principle, with no suspicion that their own cathedra is not only their sufficient resource, but the oracle of God to all mankind.

VII. (The honour of our colleague, p. 319.)

[3065] See Elucidation III. p. 154, supra.

[3066] Cyprian facetiously remarks (see Ep. xlviii. p. 325) that Novatus reserved his greater crimes for the greater city; “since Rome, from her magnitude, ought to take precedence of Carthage.”

VIII. (Novatian, pp. 319, 324.)

[3067] Lombard., Sentences, p. 394, ed. Migne. Compare Aquinas.

[3068] Macarius, Théologie Orthodoxe, vol. iii. p. 244.

[3069] Catechism of the Council of Trent, cap. vii. quæst. 2.

[3070] A monstrous statement. See Ignatius passim.

IX. (Cornelius, our colleague, p. 328.)

[3071] L’Union Chrétienne, p. 69, 1870.

XI. (Fabian and Donatus, also our predecessors, p. 342.)

[3072] A Letter to Pius the Ninth, Bishop of Rome, etc., published by Parker, London, 1870. It also appeared in most of the languages of Europe, and was circulated by the Greeks in their own tongue.

XII. (To whom perfidy could have no access, p. 344.)
