Introductory Notice to Methodius.
[2976] From the Parallels of St. John Damascene, Opera, tom. ii. p. 778, ed. Lequien.
[2977] Ibid., p. 784, B.
[2978] Ibid., p. 785, E.
From His Discourse Concerning Martyrs.
[2979] From Theodoretus, Dial., 1, ᾽Ατρεπτ. Opp., ed. Sirmond, tom. iv. p. 37.
[2981] Murdock’s Mosheim, Eccles. Hist., ii. 51.
[2982] P. 369, note 4, supra.
[2983] The Jonah Fragment, p. 378, supra.
[2984] The sense, that is, of the golden image of God in angels, and “in clay or brass, as ourselves.” See p. 378, supra.
[2985] See pp. 131, 132, edition of the London Society for the Promotion of Christian Knowledge.
Oration Concerning Simeon and Anna On the Day that They Met in the Temple.
[2986] The oration likewise treats of the Holy Theotocos. [Published by Pantinus, 1598, and obviously corrupt. Dupin states that it is “not mentioned by the ancients, nor even by Photius.” The style resembles that of Methodius in many places.]
[2992] John i. 11; Ps. l. 3. ἦλθεν—ἐμφανῶς. The text plainly requires this connection with evident allusion to Ps. l. “Our God will manifestly come” ἐμφανῶς ἥξει, which passage our author connects with another from John i.—Tr.
[2993] Ecclesiasticus 1.10.
[2995] τὴν ἀκίνητον ἧτταν ἐγκαυχησάμενοι. It seems better to retain this. Pantinus would substitute ἀνίκητον for ἀκίνητον, and render less happily “invicto hoc certamine victos.”
[2996] [See p. 309, note 1, supra, and the reflection upon even the Banquet of Philosophers, the Symposium of Plato.]
