Introductory Notice to Methodius.
[2833] Iliad, ix. 4, H. (Cowper’s Tr.).
[2835] [See the essay of Archbishop King On the Origin of Evil, ed. Cambridge, 1739. Law’s annotations in this edition are valuable. See also Dr. Bledsoe, Theodicy, and Elucidation VIII. p. 522, vol. ii, this series. Of Leibnitz (refuting Bayle), no need to speak here. Comp. Addison, Spectator, Nos. 237 and 519; also Parnell’s Hermit; also Jer. xii. 1.]
[2836] The reader will here naturally think of the great and long-continued Manichæan controversy.—Tr.
[2837] [See Routh, R. S., tom. ii. p. 98, and note p. 115, and all Routh’s notes on Maximus, the original of Methodius, of whom see Eusebius, H. E., book v. cap. 27.]
[2838] Jahn’s reading is here followed.
[2839] The text is here in an uncertain state. Cf. Migne and Jahn.
[2840] Imperfect. The rest from the Bibliotheca of Photius.
[2841] The whole of this work, as preserved, is in a very fragmentary state. We have followed Migne in general, as his edition is most widely known, and but little is gained by adopting Jahn’s, which is somewhat more complete.—Tr.
[2842] Of the bestowal of free-will.
From the Discourse on the Resurrection.
[2844] [Compare Athenagoras, vol. ii. p. 149, and other Fathers passim.]
