Introductory Notice to Hippolytus.

[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.”

[761] Ps. viii. 2.

[762] Ps. xix. 1.

[763] Hippolytus here omits some passages which are to be found in Irenæus.

Chapter I.—Heresy Compared to (1) the Stormy Ocean, (2) the Rocks of the Sirens; Moral from Ulysses and the Sirens.

[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.

[775] Luke i. 26-38.

[776] Or, “of the Son,” an obvious mistake.

[777] Irenæus has, “And the Virgin exhibited the place of Ecclesia.”

[778] Irenæus adds, “whom the Father of the universe selected, for passage through the womb, by means of the Logos, for recognition of Himself.”

Chapter XLVII.—The System of Marcus Shown to Be that of Pythagoras, by Quotations from the Writings of Marcus’ Followers.
