[8526] Fumariola, i.e. the craters of volcanoes.
[8527] Superbissimi: perhaps a play on the word, which is connected with “super” and “superus,” as “haughty” with “high.”
[8528] For Tertullian’s distinction between “the Lord’s baptism” and “John’s” see de Bapt. x.
[8529] Or “celandine,” which is perhaps only another form of “chelidonia” (“Chelidonia major,” Linn.).
[8530] Dan. iv. 25 sqq. See de Pa. xiii.
[8531] Proelium.
[8533] “Ministerium,” the abstract for the concrete: so “servitia” = slaves.
[8534] See c. iv. [Tabula was the word in cap. iv. but here it becomes planca, and planca post naufragium is the theological formula, ever since, among Western theologians.]
[8535] See de Bapt. xii. sub init.
[8536] Lit. “of all brands.” Comp. c. vi.: “Does the soldier…make satisfaction for his brands.”
[8537] Cf. Gen. 3.24; Luke 23.43; 2 Cor. 12.4; Rev. 2.7. [Elucidation IV.]

Chapter I.—Introduction. Origin of the Treatise.
[8542] i.e. Christian (Oehler).
[8543] Rationibus.
[8544] This curious allusion it is impossible, perhaps, to render in our language. The word ΙΧΘΥΣ (ikhthus) in Greek means “a fish;” and it was used as a name for our Lord Jesus, because the initials of the words ᾽Ιησοῦς Χριστὸς Θεοῦ Υἰὸς Σωτήρ (i.e. Jesus Christ the Son of God, the Savior), make up that word. Oehler with these remarks, gives abundant references on that point. [Dr. Allix suspects Montanism here, but see Kaye, p. 43, and Lardner, Credib. II. p. 335. We may date it circa a.d. 193.]
[8545] As being a woman. See 1 Tim. ii. 11, 12.
Chapter II.—The Very Simplicity of God’s Means of Working, a Stumbling-Block to the Carnal Mind.
