The Oration and Panegyric Addressed to Origen.

[151] Delivered by Gregory Thaumaturgus in the Palestinian Cæsareia, when about to leave for his own country, after many years’ instruction under that teacher. [Circa a.d. 238.] Gallandi, Opera, p. 413.

Argument I.—For Eight Years Gregory Has Given Up the Practice of Oratory, Being Busied with the Study Chiefly of Roman Law and the Latin Language.

[154] ἀκωλύτῳ, for which Bengel suggests ἀκολούθῳ.

[155] εὐειδεῖ, for which Ger. Vossius gives ἀψευδεῖ.

[156] [See my introductory note, supra. He refers to Caius, Papinian, Ulpian; all, probably, of Syrian origin, and using the Greek as their vernacular.]

[157] συγκείμενοι, which is rendered by some conduntur, by others confectæ sunt, and by others still componantur, harmonized,—the reference then being to the difficulty experienced in learning the laws, in the way of harmonizing those which apparently oppose each other.

[159] [A noteworthy estimate of Latin by a Greek.]

[160] εἰ καὶ βουλητόν, etc., for which Hœschelius gives οὔτε βουλητόν, etc. The Latin version gives, non enim aliter sentire aut posse aut velle me unquam dixerim.

Argument II.—He Essays to Speak of the Well-Nigh Divine Endowments of Origen in His Presence, into Whose Hands He Avows Himself to Have Been Led in a Way Beyond All His Expectation.
