Introductory Notice to the Early Liturgies.
[4143] [The side-table or credence.]
[4144] [Here the laity are communicated.]
[4145] [Compare Neale’s Tetralogia Liturgica, p. 192.]
[4146] [Here are confusions; but see Neale and Littledale, p. 62, note 20.]
[4147] [Interpolated, but not Mariolatrous; the Theotoce is commemorated, not adored.]
[4148] [A legitimate addition, according to the primitive laws.]
[4149] [Which must here be given.]
The Divine Liturgy of the Holy Apostle and Evangelist Mark, The Disciple of the Holy Peter.
[4150] [The only authority for this valuable relic is a single codex of the twelfth century, i.e., the Codex Rossanensis, found at Rossano, in Calabria. It was deposited in the Basilian monastery at Rome, and first published a.d. 1583, at Paris. See Hammond, pp. xlv., li.]
[4153] [i e., μυστικω̑ς = arcane.—Hederic.]
[4154] [This implies that the Eucharist was not (originally) celebrated every day, as a rule. See Justin Martyr, vol. i. note 1, p. 186.]
[4155] Rather “for the emperor,” says Renaudot; and the word βασιλεύς will stand this meaning.
[4156] The (κύριε ἐλέησον) Kyrie Eleëson.]
[4157] [According to 1 Tim. ii. 2.]
[4158] [Suits the first years of Diocletian.]
[4159] The Patriarch of Alexandria is meant. The word πάπας was used at first to designate all bishops; but its application gradually became more restricted, and so here the Patriarch of Alexandria is called πάπας, as being superior to the bishops of his patriarchate. [See vol. v. p. 154, and vol. vi., Introd.]
[4160] [See vol. iii. p. 689, this series.]
[4161] This is the Little Entrance. [The priest and deacon come from the prothesis bearing the Gospels. See p. 538, supra.]
[4162] [Bestowing what is meet.] The text here is defective. Some suppose that a sentence has been lost.
[4163] Given in full in chap. vi. of the Liturgy of James, p. 538, supra. [It is so worded that it must be dated later than the Council of Ephesus, a.d. 431.]
