Introduction, by the American Editor.
[5253] We have here an instance of the high authority of the Septuagint version. It comes from the Seventy: Καὶ ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνοματι αὐτοῦ ἔθνη ἐλπιοῦσιν (Isa. xlii. 4.) From this Tertullian, as usual, quoted it. But what is much more important, St. Matthew has adopted it; see Matt. 12.21. This beautiful promise of the Creator does not occur in its well-known form in the Hebrew original.
[5255] Apud: “administered by.”
[5257] Cum sit.
[5260] Referret.
[5261] A similar remark occurs in Præscript. Hæretic. c. xxiii. p. 253.
[5262] Ipsa materia.
[5263] See Gal. 1.11-24; Acts 15.5-29.
[5264] “The Acts of the Apostles” is always a plural phrase in Tertullian.
[5265] Ut non secutus sit.
[5266] Formam.
[5267] Dedocendæ legis; i.e., of Moses.
[5268] Ad patrocinium.
[5269] Scribit often takes the place of inquit; naturally enough as referring to the epistles.
[5271] Formam.
[5272] Si quando.
