Introduction, by the American Editor.

[6116] Phil. iii. 9.

[6117] Phil. iii. 20.

[6118] Gen. xxii. 17.

[6119] 1 Cor. xv. 41.

[6120] Phil. iii. 21. [I have adhered to the original Greek, by a trifling verbal change, because Tertullian’s argument requires it.]

[6121] 1 Cor. xv. 51, 52.

[6122] Deputari, which is an old reading, should certainly be demutari, and so say the best authorities. Oehler reads the former, but contends for the latter.

[6123] 1 Thess. iv. 16, 17.

Chapter XXI.—The Epistle to Philemon. This Epistle Not Mutilated. Marcion’s Inconsistency in Accepting This, and Rejecting Three Other Epistles Addressed to Individuals. Conclusions. Tertullian Vindicates the Symmetry and Deliberate Purpose of His Work Against Marcion.

[6124] Inspector: perhaps critic.

[6125] Retro: in the former portions of this treatise.

[6126] Expunxerimus.

[6127] Qua eruimus ipsa ista.

[6128] [Elucidation II.]

Chapter I.—The Opinions of Hermogenes, by the Prescriptive Rule of Antiquity Shown to Be Heretical. Not Derived from Christianity, But from Heathen Philosophy. Some of the Tenets Mentioned.

[6129] Compendii gratia. [The reference here to the De Præscript. forbids us to date this tract earlier than 207 a.d. Of this Hermogenes, we only know that he was probably a Carthaginian, a painter, and of a versatile and clever mind.]

[6130] This is the criterion prescribed in the Præscript. Hæret.xxxi. xxxiv., and often applied by Tertullian. See our Anti-Marcion, pp. 272, 345, 470, and passim.

[6131] The tam novella is a relative phrase, referring to the fore-mentioned rule.

[6132] Denique.

[6133] Maldicere singuiis.

[6134] Probably by painting idols (Rigalt.; and so Neander).

[6135] It is uncertain whether Tertullian means to charge Hermogenes with defending polygamy, or only second marriages, in the phrase nubit assidue. Probably the latter, which was offensive to the rigorous Tertullian; and so Neander puts it.

[6136] Quoting Gen. i. 28, “Be fruitful and multiply” (Rigalt.).
