Introduction, by the American Editor.

[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.

[2805] Si non bene dispunxisset.

[2806] Peroraturus.

[2807] Tibi insusurra pro Creatore.

[2808] Functo.

Chapter VIII.—Man, Endued with Liberty, Superior to the Angels, Overcomes Even the Angel Which Lured Him to His Fall, When Repentant and Resuming Obedience to God.

[2809] Ut non, “as if he were not,” etc.

[2810] Ezek. xviii. 23.

[2811] Ps. civ. 4.

[2812] [On capp. viii. and ix. See Kaye’s references in notes p. 178 et seqq.]

Chapter IX.—Another Cavil Answered, I.e., the Fall Imputable to God, Because Man’s Soul is a Portion of the Spiritual Essence of the Creator. The Divine Afflatus Not in Fault in the Sin of Man, But the Human Will Which Was Additional to It.

[2813] Anima, for animus. This meaning seems required throughout this passage, where afterwards occurs the phrase immortalis anima.

[2814] Qualitas.

[2815] Πνοήν, not πνεῦμα; so the Vulgate has spiraculum, not spiritum. [Kaye (p. 247) again refers to Profr. Andrews Norton of Harvard for valuable remarks concerning the use of the word spiritus by the ancients. Evidences, Vol. III. p. 160, note 7.]

[2816] Infuscandi.

[2817] Aurulam.

[2818] Veritati.
