Introductory Notice to Hippolytus.
[1818] Luke ix. 5. [Compare the Paradoxes, attributed to Bacon, in his Works, vol. xiv. p. 143; also the Appendix, pp. 139–142.]
[1819] ῥαπιζόμενος, referring to the slap in the process of manumitting slaves.
[1821] Matt. xxvi. 67. [From which proceeds His Church.]
[1822] That is, the sin introduced by Eve, who was formed by God out of Adam’s side. (Fabricius.)
[1823] ἔσται καὶ Θεός, referring probably to 2 Pet. i. 4, ἵνα διὰ τούτων γένησθε θείας κοινωνοὶ φύσεως, “that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature.” [See vol. iii. p. 317, note 11. Tertullian anticipates the language of the “Athanasian Confession,”—“taking the manhood into God;” applicable, through Christ, to our redeemed humanity. Eph. ii. 6; Rev. iii. 21.]
[1824] κολυμβήθρας.
[1835] τέκνον.
[1837] This seems to refer to what the poets sing as to the sun rising out of the waves of ocean. (Fabricius.) [Note, this is not said of such as Simon Magus, but of one who puts off the bondage, i.e., of corruption. Our author’s perorations are habitually sublime.]
I. From the Discourse of Hippolytus, Bishop of Rome, on the Resurrection and Incorruption.
