Introductory Notice to Hippolytus.
[690] Valentinus denominates what is psychical (natural) right, and what is material or pathematic left (see Irenæus, i. 5).
[691] Cruice renders the passage thus: “which is denominated right, or Demiurge, while fear it is that accomplishes this transformation.” The Demiurge is of course called “right,” as being the power of the psychical essence (see Clemens Alexandrinus, Hypot. excerpta e Theod., c. 43).
[692] Ps. cxi. 10; Prov. i. 7; ix. 10.
[693] Schneidewin fills up the hiatus thus: “Place of Mediation.” The above translation adopts the emendation of Cruice (see Irenæus, i. 5).
[694] Dan. vii. 9, 13, 22.
[695] Deut. ix. 3; Ps. l. 3; Heb. xii. 29.
[697] See Epistle of Barnabas, chap. xv. vol. i. p. 146, and Ignatius’ Letter to the Magnesians, chap. ix. p. 63, this series.
Chapter XXVIII.—The Valentinian Origin of the Creation.
[698] The opening sentence in this chapter is confused in Miller’s text. The sense, however, as given above, is deducible from a reference to a corresponding passage in Irenæus (i. 5).
[699] Deut. iv. 35; Isa. xlv. 5, 14, 18, 21, 22.
Chapter XXIX.—The Other Valentinian Emanations in Conformity with the Pythagorean System of Numbers.
[700] These words are a line out of Pythagoras’ Golden Verses:—
Πηγή τις ἀενάου φύσεως ῥιζώματ᾽ ἔχουσα—(48).
[701] The Abbe Cruise thinks that a comparison of this passage with the corresponding one in Irenæus suggests the addition of οἱ δορυφόροι after Λόγος, i.e., the Logos and his satellites. [Vol. i. p. 381, this series.]
[703] Or, “subterranean” (Cruice).
[704] Epiphanius, Hær., xxxi. sec. 7.
[707] Epiphanius, Hær., xxxi. 22.
