Hippolytus
Show All Footnotes & Jump to 1699
Introductory Notice to Hippolytus.
[1690] Reading ἐξῆλθον. The Latin interpreter seems to read ἐξελθόν = what is this that came forth.
[1691] πνεῦμα. The divine in Christ is thus designated in the Ante-Nicene Fathers generally. See Grotius on Mark ii. 8; and for a full history of the term in this use, Dorner’s Person of Christ, i. p. 390, etc. (Clark).
[1692] την περὶ τοῦτον οἰκονομιαν.
[1693] τὴν τοῦ δημιουργήσαντος ἔμπειρον καὶ ἀνεκδιήγητου τέχνην.
[1694] i.e., Matthew and Luke in their Gospels.
[1697] [A noble aphorism. See Shedd, Hist. of Theol., i. pp. 300, 301, and tribute to Pearson, p. 319, note. The loving spirit of Auberlen, on the defeat of rationalism, may be noted with profit in his Divine Revelations, translation, Clark’s ed., 1867.]
[1699] μακάριοι.
[1700] κατὰ φαντασίαν ἢ τροπήν.
[1701] [The sublimity of this concluding chapter marks our author’s place among the most eloquent of Ante-Nicene Fathers.]
[1702] The following passage agrees almost word for word with what is cited as from the Memoria hæresium of Hippolytus by Gelasius, in the De duabus naturis Christi, vol. viii. Bibl. Patr., edit. Lugd. p. 704. [Compare St. Ignatius, vol. i. cap. vii. p. 52, this series; and for the crucial point (γεννητὸς καὶ ἀγέννητος) see Jacobson, ii. p. 278.]
[1703] Or, by deed, ἔργῳ.
[1704] ἱερατευόμενος, referring to John xi. 51, 52.
[1708] Matt. xvii. 5. [It may be convenient for some to turn to the Oxford translation of Bishop Bull’s Defensio, part i. pp. 193–216, where Tertullian and Hippolytus are nobly vindicated on Nicene grounds. The notes are also valuable.]
[1709] Matt. xxvii. 29. στεφανοῦται κατὰ διαβόλου, [i.e., with thorns].
