Introductory Notice to Hippolytus.
[1337] This book is not now extant, the first ten alone having reached our time.
[1338] [The minchah, that is.]
[1340] The verses are numbered according to the Greek translation, which incorporates the apocryphal “song of the three holy children.”
[1342] “By the most holy Hippolytus, (bishop) of Rome: The Exact Account of the Times,” etc. From Gallandi. This fragment seems to have belonged to the beginning or introduction to the commentary of Hippolytus on Daniel.
IV. Other Fragments on Daniel.
[1343] In Anastasius Sinaita, quæst. xlviii. p. 327.
V. On the Song of the Three Children.
[1345] From the Catena Patrum in Psalmos et Cantica, vol. iii. ed. Corderianæ, pp. 951, ad v. 87.
[1346] This apocryphal story of Susannah is found in the Greek texts of the LXX. and Theodotion, in the old Latin and Vulgate, and in the Syriac and Arabic versions. But there is no evidence that it ever formed part of the Hebrew, or of the original Syriac text. It is generally placed at the beginning of the book, as in the Greek mss. and the old Latin, but is also sometimes set at the end, as in the Vulgate, ed. Compl.
[1350] Prov. i. 32; in our version given as, “The prosperity of fools shall destroy them.”
[1353] That is, Daniel, present in the spirit of prophecy.—Combef.
[1355] Tobit iii. 17.
