Introductory Notice to Hippolytus.
[1539] [Concerning Antichrist, two advents, etc., see vol. iv. p. 219, this series.]
[1541] Matt. xxiv. 15-22; Mark xiii. 14-20; Luke xxi. 20-23.
[1542] Dan. xi. 31; xii. 11-12. The Hebrew has 1,335 as the number in the second verse.
[1543] Hippolytus reads here ἐπ᾽ αὐτῆς instead of ἐπ᾽ αὐτόν, and makes the pronoun therefore refer to the coming.
[1549] The word πτῶμα, used in the Greek as = carcase, is thus interpreted by Hippolytus as = fall, which is its literal sense.
[1557] Eph. v. 14. Epiphanius and others suppose that the words thus cited by Paul are taken from the apocryphal writings of Jeremiah: others that they are a free version of Isa. lx. 1. [But their metrical form justifies the criticism that they are a quotation from a hymn of the Church, based, very likely, on the passage from Isaiah.]
