Introductory Notice to Two Epistles Concerning Virginity.
[431] 1 Tim. iii. 3; Tit. i. 7.
[433] Lit. “or is a daughter of the covenant.”
[434] Beelen’s rendering, “we do not even pass the night,” seems not to be favoured either by the arrangement or the context.
[435] Lit “dwelling-place.”
[436] Or “consolation.” So παράκλησις in the N.T. has both senses.
[437] Lit. “without.”
Chapter II.—His Behaviour in Places Where There Were Christians of Both Sexes.
[439] i.e., one who has taken the vow of celibacy.
[440] Lit. “will with him minister all those things.”
[441] [The minuteness of all these precepts is of itself suspicious. The “simplicity” of the earlier age had evidently passed when these prohibitions were penned.—R.]
[442] ***, Beelen’s conjecture for ***, “rich.” Zingerle proposes ***, “about to be married.”
[443] Lit. “come to the delight of the truth.”
[444] Lit. “ask of the peace of.”
[445] Lit. “for that which in his;” or “for what belongs to him.”
Chapter IV.—Conduct of the Holy Man Where There are Women Only.
[448] Lit. “all of them are believing women and maidens.”
[449] Lit. “some place on the right side.” The Syrian translator has probably mistaken the meaning of εἰς ἕνα τόπον δεξιόν, where δεξιόν may be compared with dexter in Hor., Sat., ii. 1, 18.—Beelen.
[450] Probably meaning, “when we have inquired of their welfare.”
[451] Lit. “compressed.”
