[437] 1 Cor. xi. 10. [Does he here play on the use of the word angels in the Revelation? He seems to make it = elders.]
[439] 1 Tim. ii. 9; 1 Pet. iii. 3.
[440] [A very striking collocation of Matt. 27.34; Luke 24.42.]
[441] Rev. ii. 10; Jas. i. 22.
[445] See Kaye, pp. 408–415.
[446] [See Elucidation I. Written late in our author’s life, this tract contains no trace of Montanism, and shows that his heart was with the common cause of all Christians. Who can give up such an Ephraim without recalling the words of inspired love for the erring?— Jer. xxxi. 20; Hos. xi. 8.]
[447] [Kaye points out our author’s inconsistencies on this matter. If Caractacus ever made the speech ascribed to him (Bede, or Gibbon, cap. lxxi.) it would confirm the opinion of those who make him a convert to Christ: “Quando cadet Roma, cadet et mundus.” Elucidation II.]
[448] [On this sort of Demonology see Kaye, pp. 203–207, with his useful references. See De Spectaculis, p. 80, supra.]
[449] [An obvious play on the ambiguity of this word.]
[450] [Notes of the time when this was written. See Kaye, p. 57.]
[451] [Christians remembered Herod (Acts xii. 23) very naturally; but we may reserve remarks on such instances till we come to Lactantius. But see Kaye (p. 102) who speaks unfavourably of them.]
[452] [Notes of the time when this was written. See Kaye, p. 57.]
[453] [Our author uses the Greek (μὴ θεομαχεῖν) but not textually of Acts v. 39.]
[454] [Another note of time. a.d. 211. See Kaye, as before.]
[455] [Compare Vol. I., p. 187, this Series.]
[456] [Compare De Fuga, cap. xii. It is incredible that our author could exaggerate in speaking to the chief magistrate of Carthage.]
[457] [Mosheim’s strange oversight, in neglecting to include such considerations, in accounting for the growth of the church, is justly censured by Kaye, p. 124.]
