Introductory Notice to Hippolytus.
[614] The text here is corrupt. The above is Miller’s emendation. Cruice’s reading may thus be rendered: “So that far sooner we may compare him unto the Libyan, who was a mere man, and not the true God.”
[616] The Abbe Cruice considers that Theodoret has made use of this passage. (See Hæret. Fab., i. 1.)
[617] Or, τὸν ἀόρατον, the invisible one.
[619] Matt. iii. 12; Luke iii. 17.
Chapter V.—Simon Appeals to Scripture in Support of His System.
Chapter VI.—Simon’s System Expounded in the Work, Great Announcement; Follows Empedocles.
[621] Emped., ed. Karst. v. 324.

[622] νώματος αἶσαν: Miller has γνώμην ἴσην, which yields but little sense.
[623] These powers are thus arranged:
A. Mind and Intelligence: termed also,—1. Heaven and Earth.
B. Voice and Name: termed also,—2. Sun and Moon.
C. Ratiocination and Reflection: termed also,—3. Air and Water.
[626] “Brooded over” (see Gen. i. 2).
[630] χωρίον (i.e., locality) is the reading in Miller, which Cruice ingeniously alters into χόριον, the caul in which the fœtus is enclosed, which is called the “after-birth.”
[632] This rendering follows Cruice, who has succeeded in clearing away the obscurity of the passage as given in Miller.
