Introductory Notice to Hippolytus.
[429] [The Phrygian Atys (see cap. iv. infra), whose history should have saved Origen from an imitation of heathenism.]
[430] παρῃτημένος: some read ἀπηρτισμένος, i.e., perfecting.
[431] These verses have been ascribed to Parmenides.
[432] Or, “receive.”
[437] ἐξ ἧς or ἑξῆς, i.e., next.
[438] Matt. xiii. 31-32; Mark iv. 31-32; Luke xiii. 19.
[440] The passage following obviously was in verse originally. It has been restored to its poetic form by Schneidewin.
[444] Or, “they say.”
[447] κερκίς. This word literally means the rod; or, in later times, the comb fixed into the ἱστός (i.e., the upright loom), for the purpose of driving the threads of the woof home, thus making the web even and close. It is, among other significations, applied to bones in the leg or arm. Cruice and Schneidewin translate κερκίς by spina, a rendering adopted above. The allusion is made again in chap. xii. and chap. xvi. In the last passage, κέντρον (spur) is used instead of κερκίς
