Introductory Notice to Hippolytus.
[333] Or, “vanquishing him” (Roeper).
[334] This is known to us only by some ancient quotations. The Naasseni had another work of repute among them, the “Gospel according to Thomas.” Bunsen conjectures that the two “Gospels” may be the same.
[335] αὐτογενοῦς. Miller has αὐτοῦ γένους, which Bunsen rejects in favour of the reading “self-begotten.”
[336] Schneidewin considers that there have been left out in the ms. the words “or Attis” after Endymion. Attis is subsequently mentioned with some degree of particularity.
[337] Or, “creation.”
[338] Or, “Apis.” See Diodorus Siculus, iii. 58, 59. Pausanias, vii. 20, writes the word Attes. See also Minucius Felix, Octav., cap. xxi.
[339] Or, “forbidden.”
[340] Gal. iii. 28, and Clement’s Epist. ad Rom., ii. 12. [This is the apocryphal Clement reserved for vol. viii. of this series. See also same text, Ignatius, vol. i. p. 81.]
[341] See 2 Cor. v. 17; Gal. vi 15.
[343] ἀλάλῳ; some read ἄλλῳ.
[345] These words do not occur in the “Gospel of Thomas concerning the Saviour’s infancy,” as given by Fabricius and Thilo.
[346] The Abbe Cruice mentions the following works as of authority among the Naasseni, and from whence they derived their system: The Gospel of Perfection, Gospel of Eve, The Questions of Mary, Concerning the Offspring of Mary, The Gospel of Philip, The Gospel according to (1) Thomas, (2) the Egyptians. (See Epiphanius, Hæres., c. xxvi., and Origen, Contr. Cels., vi. 30, p. 296, ed. Spenc.) These heretics likewise make use of the Old Testament, St. John’s Gospel, and some of the Pauline epistles.
[347] Miller refers to Littré, Traduct. des Œuvres d’Hippocrate, t. i. p. 396.
[348] See Herodotus, ii. 2, 5.
[349] See Origen, Contr. Cels., v. 38 (p. 257, ed. Spenc.).
[350] Or, “brilliant.”
[351] Or, “untraceable.”
[352] Prov. xxiv. 16; Luke xvii. 4.
[353] Or, “spirit.”
