Introductory Notice to Remains of the Second and Third Centuries.
[3816] Φασὶ τὸ σῶμα τοῦ Κυρίου ἐν τῷ ἡλίῳ αὐτὸν ἀποτίθεσθαι.
[3817] In the Scholia of Maximus on St. Gregory the Divine.
[3818] Θελήματα.
[3819] Οἱ περὶ Πάνταινον. [Vol. ii. pp. 165–167, this series.]
[3820] Τὴν ἔξω παίδευσιν.
[3821] Τὰ ὄντα.
[3822] ῾Ως ἴδια θελήματα.
[3823] Vol. iv. p. 125, this series. Compare Lightfoot, Ap. Fathers, part ii. vol. i. pp. 499, etc., 510, etc.
[3824] Ap. Fathers, part ii. vol. i. p. 499.
[3825] This letter has come down to us in fragments quoted by Eusebius. We have used the translation of Lord Hailes as the basis of ours. [Compare Vol. i. p. 309, this series, and note the adhesion of the primitive Gallican Church to the East,—to the land of Polycarp and Pothinus. Concerning Pothinus, see Routh, Rel. Sac., i. p. 328, and the correction by Lightfoot, Ap. F., part ii. vol. i. p. 430, etc. The Gallican Church may yet arise from the dust, and restore the primitive primacy of Lyons. God grant it!]
[3826] We have translated μάρτυρες “witnesses” and μαρτυρία “testimony” throughout.
[3827] Houses of friends and relatives. Olshausen takes them to be public buildings.
[3828] Rom. viii. 18. [On quotations from Scripture, etc., see Westcott, Canon, p. 378, ed. 1855.]
[3829] By “confinements” in this passage evidently is meant that the populace prevented them from resorting to public places, and thus shut them up in their own houses.
[3831] From the heathen judge.
[3833] The writer refers to St. John’s Gospel (John 15.13): “Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.”
[3835] This expression seems to refer to what took place in athletic combats. The athletes were tested before fighting, and those in every way qualified were permitted to fight, while the others were rejected. This testing, Valesius supposes, was called διάκρισις.
