Introduction, by the American Editor.

^[5985] Eph. ii. 11, 12.

^[5986] Conversatio: rather, “intercourse with Israel.”

^[5987] Eph. ii. 13.

^[5988] This is rather an allusion to, than a quotation of, Isa. xlvi. 12, 13.

^[5989] Eph. ii. 14.

^[5990] Eph. ii. 15.

^[5991] “The law of commandments contained in ordinances.”

^[5992] He expresses the proverbial adage very tersely, “non Marrucine, sed Pontice.”

^[5993] Vacuam fecit.

^[5994] Ex adjutore.

^[5995] Conderet: “create,” to keep up the distinction between this and facere, “to make.”

^[5996] Eph. ii. 10.

^[5997] Eph. ii. 15-16.

^[5998] Eph. ii. 16.

^[5999] Eph. ii. 17-20.

^[6000] “Because, if our building as Christians rested in part upon that foundation, our God, and the God of the Jews must be the same, which Marcion denied” (Lardner).

^[6001] Eph. ii. 20.

^[6002] Ps. cxviii. 22.

Chapter XVIII.—Another Foolish Erasure of Marcion’s Exposed. Certain Figurative Expressions of the Apostle, Suggested by the Language of the Old Testament. Collation of Many Passages of This Epistle, with Precepts and Statements in the Pentateuch, the Psalms, and the Prophets. All Alike Teach Us the Will and Purpose of the Creator.

^[6003] Eph. iii. 8, 9.

^[6004] The passage of St. Paul, as Tertullian expresses it, “Quæ dispensatio sacramenti occulti ab ævis in Deo, qui omnia condidit.” According to Marcion’s alteration, the latter part runs, “Occulti ab ævis Deo, qui omnia condidit.” The original is, Τίς ἡ οἰκονομία τοῦ μυστηρίου τοῦ ἀποκεκρυμμένου ἀπὸ τῶν αἰώνων ἐν τῷ Θεῷ (compare Col. iii. 3) τῷ τὰ πάντα κτίσαντι. Marcion’s removal of the ἐν has no warrant of ms. authority; it upsets St. Paul’s doctrine, as attested in other passages, and destroys the grammatical structure.

^[6005] Emicat.
