[8861] Herod. i. 47.
[8862] Which is forbidden,Matt. vi. 5, 6.
Chapter XVIII.—Of the Kiss of Peace.
[8863] Such as fasting.
[8864] See Rom. xvi. 16; 1 Cor. xvi. 20; 2 Cor. xiii. 12; 1 Thess. v. 26; 1 Pet. v. 14. [The sexes apart.]
[8866] i.e. “Good Friday,” as it is now generally called.
[8867] The word Statio seems to have been used in more than one sense in the ancient Church. A passage in the Shepherd of Hermas, referred to above (B. iii. Sim. 5), appears to make it ="fast.”
[8868] “Ara,” not “altare.”
[8869] For receiving at home apparently, when your station is over.
[8870] See 2 Tim. ii. 1, etc. [See Hermas, Vol. I., p. 33.]
[8871] See 1 Cor. xi. 1-16; 1 Tim. ii. 9-10.
Chapter XXII.—Answer to the Foregoing Arguments.
[8874] As to the distinction between “women” and “virgins.”
[8875] Gen. ii. 23. In the LXX. and in the Eng. ver. there is but the one word “woman.”
[8876] These words are regarded by Dr. Routh as spurious, and not without reason. Mr. Dodgson likewise omits them, and refers to de Virg. Vel. cc. 4 and 5.
[8877] In de Virg. Vel. 5, Tertullian speaks even more strongly: “And so you have the name, I say not now common, but proper to a virgin; a name which from the beginning a virgin received.”
[8878] 1 Cor. vii. 34 et seq.
[8879] γυνή.
[8880] Mr. Dodgson appears to think that there is some transposition here; and at first sight it may appear so. But when we look more closely, perhaps there is no need to make any difficulty: the stress is rather on the words “by interpretation,” which, of course, is a different thing from “usage;” and by interpretation γυνή appears to come nearer to “femina” than to “mulier.”
[8881] θηλεῖα.
