Introductory Note to Gregory Thaumaturgus.
[204] τὸ πλεῖον.
[205] The text gives συμβλύσαντα ὡς, for which Casaubon proposes συμφύσαντα εἰς ἕν, or ὡς ἕν. Bengel suggests συμβρύσανρα ὡς ἕν.
[206] νόθον.
[207] The text gives ἐκεῖ, for which Hœschelius and Bengel read είκῆ.
[208] τελειοῦθαι δὲ τῇ βλάσψῃ.
[209] ὑπ᾽ ἀλλήλων.
[210] τριβόλους.
[211] The words ἀλλὰ κεκρυμμένα are omitted by Hœschelius and Bengel.
[212] ἐι τι ῾Ελληνικὸν ἢ βάρβαρόν ἐστι τῇ φωνῇ.
Argument VIII.—Then in Due Succession He Instructs Them in Physics, Geometry, and Astronomy.
[213] The text is, καὶ μὴ τοῦθ᾽ ὅπερ εἶδος διαλεκτικὴ κατορθοῦν μόνη εἴληχε.
[214] πᾶν τὸ φιλόσοφον. Hœschelius and Bengel read πῶς, etc.
[215] The text gives ὑφ᾽ ἑαυτῆς, for which Bengel reads ἐφ᾽ ἑαυτῆς.
[216] ἐκχέοντα ἡμᾶς.
[217] ἐπιστήμη, science.
[218] τὰ πρῶτα Θεῷ ἶσον εἶναι τὸν σοφὸν ἄνθρωπον.
Argument X.—Hence the Mere Word-Sages are Confuted, Who Say and Yet Act Not.
[219] φιλοτιμίᾳ, for which φιλονεικίᾳ is read.
[220] The text is, ἢ κακῶν ἂν ἔλεγον, etc. The Greek ἤ and the Latin aut are found sometimes thus with a force bordering on that of alioqui.
[221] ἀφραίνομεν. The Paris editor would read ἀφραίνω μέν.
[222] ἀλλὰ γὰρ πᾶσι μέχρι ῥημάτων τὸ φιλοσοφεῖν στήσασιν.
[223] The text is, ἀλλ᾽ ἐπεὶ ἀλήθειαν ἡμῖν, οὐ κομψείαν ἐπηγγείλατο ὁ λόγος ἄνωθεν. The Latin rendering is, sed quia veritatem nobis, non pompam et ornatum promisit oratio in exordio.
[224] The text is, καίτοι γε εἰπεῖν ἐθέλων εἶναι τε ἀληθές. Bengal takes the τε as pleonastic, or as an error for the article, τ᾽ ἀληθές. The εἶναι in ἐθέλων εἶναι he takes to be the use of the infinitive which occurs in such phrases as τὴν πρώτην εἶναι, initio, ἑκὼν εἶναι, libenter, τὸ δὲ νῦν εἶναι, nunc vero, etc.; and, giving ἐθέλων the sense of μέλλων, makes the whole = And yet I shall speak truth.
