Introductory Notice to Hippolytus.
[491] Or, “they say.”
[499] The Abbe Cruise thinks that Hippolytus is here quoting from the Gospel of Eve (see Epiph., Hær., xxvi. 2).
[500] ἄκρᾳ: this is a conjectural reading instead of ἀρχῇ.
[501] Aratus, Phænom., v. 62.
[502] Ibid., v. 46.
Chapter XII.—Compendious Statement of the Doctrines of the Peratæ.
[507] There is a hiatus here. Miller, who also suggests διαφέρει instead of μεταφέρει supplies the deficiency as translated above. The Abbe Cruice fills up the hiatus by words taken from a somewhat similar passage in the third chapter of book viii., but the obscurity still remains. Miller thinks there is a reference to Isa. vi. 10.
[508] This theory has been previously alluded to by Hippolytus in the last chapter of book iv.
[509] καμαρίου: some would read μακαρίου [“the dome of thought, the palace of the soul”].
Chapter XIII.—The Peratic Heresy Not Generally Known.
[510] παντάπασι: some read πάντα πᾶσι. Cruice suggests πᾶσιν ἐπιτιθειμένην, i.e., one that plots against all.
[511] This is the form in which the name occurs in Hippolytus, but the correct one is Sethians. As regards this sect, see Irenæus, Contr. Hæres., i. 30; Tertullian, Præscript., c. lxvii.; Theodoret, Hæret. Fabul., i. 14; Epiphanius, Advers. Hæres., c. xxviii., xxxvii., and xxxix.; Augustine, De Hæret., c. xix.; Josephus, Antiq. Judaic., i. 2; Suidas on the word “Seth.”
