Introduction, by the American Editor.

[2784] Dignatione.

[2785] Ex dispositione. The same as the “universa disponendo” above.

[2786] Institutione.

[2787] Bonum jam suum, not bonitatem.

[2788] Emancipatum.

[2789] Libripens. The language here is full of legal technicalities, derived from the Roman usage in conveyance of property. “Libripens quasi arbiter mancipationis” (Rigalt.).

[2790] Quoniam (with a subj.) et hoc.

[2791] Bonus consisteret.

[2792] Ita demum.

[2793] Proinde.

[2794] Fortior.

[2795] Meritis.

[2796] Constituta est.

[2797] Our author’s word invenitur (in the singular) combines the bonitas and ratio in one view.

[2798] The verb is subj., “deceret.”

[2799] Sed, with oportet understood.

[2800] Recogitata. [Again, a noble Theodicy.]

Chapter VII.—If God Had Anyhow Checked Man’s Liberty, Marcion Would Have Been Ready with Another and Opposite Cavil. Man’s Fall Foreseen by God. Provision Made for It Remedially and Consistently with His Truth and Goodness.

[2801] Salva.

[2802] Gravitatem.

[2803] Sed, for scilicet, not unfrequent with our author.

[2804] That is, from the Marcionite position referred to in the second sentence of this chapter, in opposition to that of Tertullian which follows.
