Introduction, by the American Editor.
[4148] Et quidem adhuc orantes.
[4149] Comp. Epiphanius, Hæres. xlii., Schol. 8, cum Refut.; Tertullian, De Præscript Hæret. 8; and De Bapt. 10.
[4150] Ut ulterius. This is the absurd allegation of Marcion. So Epiphanius (Le Prieur).
[4151] Ego.
[4152] Scandalum. Playing on the word “scandalum” in its application to the Baptist and to Marcion.
[4153] “It is most certain that the Son of God, the second Person of the Godhead, is in the writings of the fathers throughout called by the title of Spirit, Spirit of God, etc.; with which usage agree the Holy Scriptures. See Mark ii. 8; Rom. i. 3-4; 1 Tim. iii. 16; Heb. ix. 14; 1 Pet. iii. 18-20; also John 6.63;56.”—Bp. Bull, Def. Nic. Creed (translated by the translator of this work), vol. i. p. 48 and note X. [The whole passage should be consulted.]
[4154] Ex forma prophetici moduli.
[4155] Tertullian stands alone in the notion that St. John’s inquiry was owing to any withdrawal of the Spirit, so soon before his martyrdom, or any diminution of his faith. The contrary is expressed by Origen, Homil. xxvii., on Luke vii.; Chrysostom on Matt. xi.; Augustine, Sermon. 66, de Verbo; Hilary on Matthew; Jerome on Matthew, and Epist. 121, ad Algas.; Ambrose on Luke, book v. § 93. They say mostly that the inquiry was for the sake of his disciples. (Oxford Library of the Fathers, vol. x. p. 267, note e). [Elucidation V.]
[4156] Ut in massalem suam summam.
[4157] Unus jam de turba.
[4158] Eundem.
[4159] Etiam prophetes.
[4160] Facilius.
[4161] Jesus.
[4163] Sperabat.
[4164] Documentorum.
[4165] Major.
[4166] Scandalum.
