Introductory Notice to Hippolytus.
[755] Supplied from Irenæus.
[756] This should be altered into Hebdomad if we follow Irenæus.
[757] τάδε διακονεῖ. This is the text of Irenæus, and corrects the common reading, τὰ δἰ εἰκόνων.
[758] φθέγγεται (Irenæus). The common reading is φαίνεται.
[759] μέσου: in Irenæus we have μέρους.
[760] Irenæus has the sentence thus: “so also the soul in babes, lamenting and bewailing Marcus, glorifies him.”
[763] Hippolytus here omits some passages which are to be found in Irenæus.
[764] Literally, “being twice two:” some for οὖσαι read οὐσίαι. Irenæus has ἐπὶ δύο οὖσαι, i.e., “which being (added) into two.”
[765] Hippolytus has only the word “twenty-four,” to which Schneidewin supplies “letters,” and Irenæus “forms,” as given above. Hippolytus likewise omits the word “produced,” which Irenæus supplies. The text of the latter is τὰς εἰκοσιτέσσαρας ἀπεκύσαν μορφάς.
[766] Irenæus adds, “which being added together, I mean the twice five and twice seven, complete the number of the twenty-four (forms).”
[767] The parenthetical words had fallen into a wrong part of the sentence, and are placed here by Schneidewin.
[768] This is a correction for “expressed” from Irenæus. Marcus observes the distinction afterwards.
[769] κατὰ ἓν γραμμάτων. The ms.. has ἐγγραμάτων. Irenæus omits these words.
[770] This entire sentence is wanting in Irenæus.
[771] Corrected from Chri, which is in the ms.
[772] Irenæus has the passage thus: “And for this reason He says that He is Alpha and Omega, that He may manifest the dove, inasmuch as this bird (symbolically) involves this number (801).” See a previous note in chap. xlii. p. 95, supra.
Chapter XLV.—Why Jesus is Called Alpha.
[773] Part of this sentence is supplied from Irenæus.
[774] Hippolytus here omits the following sentence found in Irenæus: “And again thus—of the first quarternion, when added into itself, in accordance with a progression of number, appeared the number ten, and so forth.”
Chapter XLVI.—Marcus’ Account of the Birth and Life of Our Lord.
