Introductory Note to Taitian the Assyrian

[459] [Demons. The Paris editors have a note here, bidding us to read with caution; as our author seems rashly to imagine the demons to be material creatures. p. 151, ed. 1615.]

[460] [“Which, though one and the same, is thus variously modified.” Kaye’s rendering in his Justin, p. 184.]

Chapter XIII.—Theory of the Soul’s Immortality.

[461] [Here Bishop Kaye has a very full note, quoting a beautiful passage textually from Beausobre, with whom, however, he does not entirely coincide. Justin, p. 184.]

[462] John. i. 5.

[463] [See cap. v., note, supra, p. 67.]

[464] [τοῦ πεπονθότος Θεοῦ. A very noteworthy testimony to the mystery of the Cross, and an early specimen of the Communicatio idiomatum: the ἀντὶδοσις or ἀντιμετάστασις of the Greek theologians. Pearson, On the Creed, p. 314. London, 1824.]

Chapter XIV.—The Demons Shall Be Punished More Severely Than Men.

[465] [The shortening of human life is a gracious limitation of tarnsgression and of the peril of probation. “Let not our years be multiplied to increase our guilt.”]

Chapter XV.—Necessity of a Union with the Holy Spirit.

[466] [δεσμὸς δὲ τοῦ σαρκὸς ψυχὴ.]

[467] Comp. 1 Cor. ii. 14, 15. [The ψυχικοὶ, of whom we are to hear so much in Tertullian. Comp. cap. xii., supra, p. 70.]

[468] [But Kaye would translate, “by dying to the world through faith.”]

[469] Ps. viii. 5.

Chapter XVI.—Vain Display of Power by the Demons.

[470] [For a learned and valuable comparison of early patristic Demonologies, see Kaye’s Justin Martyr, pp. 201–210.]

[471] Perhaps in his treatise “On Animals.”

[472] Comp. Eph. vi. 13-14, 17.

Chapter XVII.—They Falsely Promise Health to Their Votaries.

[473] Democritus. [The Paris editors add, vide Lærtium. As to Ostanes, see that invaluable thesaurus, Hofmann’s Lex. Universale, vol. ii. p. 6. Leyden, 1698.]

[474] [Comp. cap. vi. note 6, supra. p. 67.]

[475] [Naviget Anticyras. On hellebore, see otherwise useless learning but illustrative of this place, in Burton, Anat. Melanchol., p. 400. Ed. New York, 1847.]

Chapter XVIII.—They Deceive, Instead of Healing.

[476] [ὓλης οἰκονομία. note Comp. cap. ix., supra, note 4; p. 69.]
