Introduction, by the American Editor.
[8407] Phaneroseis. Oehler refers to de Præscr. c. xxx. q. v.
[8408] φιλουμένη, “loved one.”
Chapter VII.—Tatian, Cataphrygians, Cataproclans, Catæschinetans.
[8409] Salvi. Perhaps if it be questionable whether this word may be so rendered in a correct Latinist, it may be lawful to render it so in so incorrect a one as our present author.
[8410] i.e. followers of Proclus.
[8411] i.e. followers of Æschines. So this writer takes “Cataphryges” to mean followers of the Phrygians.”
Chapter VIII.—Blastus, Two Theodoti, Praxeas.
[8412] Negavit. See de Idol. c. xxiii. note 1.
[8413] Hominem solitarium atque nudum. The words seems to mean, destitute of anything superhuman.
[8414] Et ipsum hominem Christum tantummodo. I rather incline to read, as in the preceding sentence, “et ipse”: “and himself affirms Christ to have been merely human, conceived alike,” etc.
[8415] See Ps. cx. 4, and the references there.
[8416] The Latin here is very careless, unless, with Routh, we suggest “et” for “eo,” and render: “and that what Christ does,” etc., “Melchizedek does,” etc.
[8417] See Heb. vii. 1-3.
[8418] Who he is, no one knows. Oehler (following the lead of Fabricius on Philaster, cap. 49, p. 102) believes the name to be a mistake for Victor, a bishop of Rome, who (see Adv. Prax. c. i.) had held the episcopate when Praxeas was there. His successor was Zephyrinus; and it is an ingenious conjecture of Oehler, that these two names, the one written as a correction of the other, may have been confused: thus, Victor/Zephrynus; and thus of the two may have been made Victorinus.
[8419] The form and order of the words here used are certainly remarkably similar to the expressions and order of the “Apostles’ Creed.”
