Introductory Notice to Hippolytus.
[806] Compare Porphyry’s Isagoge, c. ii., and Aristotle’s Categ., c. v.
Chapter VI.—Substance, According to Aristotle; The Predicates.
[807] Aristotle’s Categ., c. v.
[808] Or, “is sufficient.”
[809] Or, “the question is discussed.”
[810] [This word, not yet technical, as with us, is thus noted as curious. Of its force see Professor Caird, Encyc. Britannic., sub voce “Metaphysic.”]
[811] See Aristotle, De Anim., ii. 1.
[812] Literally, “out of tune.”
[813] These works must be among Aristotle’s lost writings (see Fabricius’ Bibl. Græc., t. iii. pp. 232, 404). We have no work of Aristotle’s expressly treating “of God.” However, the Stagyrite’s theology, such as it is, is unfolded in his Metaphysics. See Macmahon’s analysis prefixed to his translation of Aristotle’s Metaphysics, Bohn’s Classical Library.
[814] Aristotle composed three treatises on ethical subjects: (1) Ethics to Nicomachus; (2) Great Morals; (3) Morals to Eudemus.
[815] Miller erroneously reads “Matthew.”
[816] (See Bunsen, i. v. 86. A fabulous reference may convey a truth. This implies that Matthias was supposed to have preached and left results of his teachings.]
Chapter IX.—Basilides Adopts the Aristotelian Doctrine of “Nonentity.”
[817] This emendation is made by Abbe Cruice. The ms. has “incomposite,” an obviously untenable reading.
Chapter X.—Origin of the World; Basilides’ Account of the “Sonship.”
[818] Or, “of what sort of material substance,” etc.
[820] Or, “being declared.”
[821] John i. 9. [See translator’s important note (1), p. 7, supra.]
[822] Literally, “throbbed.”
[823] Odyssey, vii. 36.
[824] See Plato, vol. i. p. 75 et seq., ed. Bekker. Miller has “Phædo;” an obvious mistake.
[825] [Foretaste of Cent. IV.] Miller’s text has, instead of τοῦ οὐκ ὄντος (non-existent), οικοῦντος (who dwells above).
Chapter XI.—The “Great Archon” Of Basilides.
