Introductory Notice to Hippolytus.
[1509] ποιήσει, Combef. ἐποίησε.
[1510] [Let us imitate the wisdom of our author, whose modest commentary upon his master Irenæus cannot be too much applauded. The mystery, however, does seem to turn upon something in the Latin race and its destiny.]
[1518] Quoted already in chap. xv. as from one of the prophets.
[1520] Reading ἀπεφήνατο for ἀπεκρίνατο.
[1524] Mic. v. 5. The Septuagint reads αὐτῇ = And (he) shall be the peace to it. Hippolytus follows the Hebrew, but makes the pronoun feminine, αὕτη referring to the peace. Again Hippolytus reads ὄρη = mountains, where the Septuagint has χώραν = land, and where the Hebrew word = fortresses or palaces. [He must mean that “the Assyrian” = Antichrist. “The peace” is attributable only to the “Prince of peace.” So the Fathers generally.]
[1526] οὐαὶ γῆς πλοίων πτέρυγες.
[1527] μετέωρον.
[1529] Wordsworth, reading ὡς ἱστὸν for ὡς τὸν, would add, like a mast. See his Commentary on Acts xxvii. 40.
