[3105] See note 10 on p. 668.—Tr. It is plain from this that the Epistles were not at that time considered part of what was called the New Testament, nor the prophets of the Old.
[3106] Lit. “nod,” or “bidding,” or “impulse.”—Tr. [See Tertull., vol. iii. p. 252.]
[3107] Lit. “were quiet and silent at.”—Tr.
[3108] Lit. “be an advocate.”—Tr.
[3110] C. reads “Pentapolis.”
[3111] A. has “the Indians;” C. “the Ethiopians.”
[3112] C. adds, “and built a church at Antioch.”
[3113] See note 3, p. 673, infra.
[3114] [The omission of reference to St. Paul is a token of a corrupt and mediæval text here.]
[3115] The reading of C. The ms. A. gives what Cureton transcribes as Gothia, which is almost the same as the word rendered “Inner.” Possibly this explains the origin of the reading of A. “Galatia” was perhaps accidentally omitted.—Tr.
[3116] C. has “the Danube.”
[3117] Or “Soba,” the same as Nisïbis.
[3118] The number seventy-two may have arisen from the supposition, mentioned in the Recognitions and in the Apostolical Constitutions, that our Lord chose them in imitation of the seventy-two elders appointed by Moses.
[3119] Or “place.”—Tr.
[3120] See note 6 on p. 661.
[3121] B. reads “Priscilla,” C. “Pricillas.” Prisca and Priscilla are the forms in which the name occurs in the New Testament.
[3122] Probably the same as Manaen, mentioned in Acts xiii. 1, as associated with Paul at Antioch.
[3123] [The failure to praise the work of him who “laboured more abundantly than all” others, is noteworthy, and can only be accounted for by Middle-Age corruptions of the text.]
[3124] C. adds, “crucifying him on a cross.” C. also adds, “Here endeth the treatise of Addæus the apostle.”
The Teaching of Simon Cephas in the City of Rome.
[3125] This is found in the same ms. as the preceding, quoted as A. There is also another copy of it in Cod. Add. 14,609, referred to here as B. [It looks like an afterthought of a later age, when the teaching of Peter was elevated into a specialty.]
