Introductory Notice to Hippolytus.
[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].
[1710] [Hippolytus confirms Tertullian’s testimony. Compare vol. iii. pp. 35 and 58.]
[1711] κατὰ στοιχεῖον. The Latin title in the version of Anastasius renders it “ex sermone qui est per elementum.”
[1712] περὶ θεολογίας.
[1713] For ῞Ηλικοςthe Codex Regius et Colbertinus of Nicephorus prefers “῝Ηλικίωνος. Fabricius conjectures that we should read ηλικιωτῶ αἱρετικῶν, so that the title would be, Against Beron and his fellow-heretics. [N.B. Beron = "Vero".]
[1714] αὐτῷ τῷ…Θεῷ.
[1715] τοῖς ἕκαστα φυσικοις διεξαγόμενα νόμοις. Anastasius makes it naturalibus producta legibus; Capperonnier, suis quæque legibus temperata vel ordinata.
[1716] τροπὴ γὰρ τοῦ κατὰ φύσιν ἀπείρου, κινεῖσθαι μὴ πεφυκότος, ἡ κίνησις; or may the sense be, “for a change in that which is in its nature infinite would just be the moving of that which is incapable of movement?”
