Chapter 48

Notes

1. 1

   Phil. ii. 9.

2. 2

   Sibi ipsi.

3. 3

   Secundum id quod scriptorem fefellit. [i.e. on that supposition.]

4. 4

   1 Cor. xiii. 11.

5. 5

   Phil. iii. 13.

6. 6

   Reading “debuitne etiam” for the bad version of the Codex Casinensis, “debuit et etiam.”

7. 7

   The text gives, “se ipso judicante,” for which “te ipso,” etc., may be substituted.

8. 8

   In the Codex Casinensis the sentence stands in this evidently corrupt form: “cum enim peccatis bonus et gravatus ad discipulatum diligit.” We adopt the emendation given in Migne: “cum enim peccatis onustos et gravatos ad discipulatum delegit.”

9. 9

   Matt. x. 37.

10. 10

    Luke ix. 59, 60.

11. 11

    Propitius esto, Domine.

12. 12

    Matt. xvi. 22. [Possibly the first words by which Satan fell.]

13. 13

    Matt. xvi. 21.

14. 14

    Matt. xvi. 23. [Satan seems to have rebelled against man’s creation.]

15. 15

    Luke iv. 34, reading sanctus Deus. [i.e., not the received text.]

16. 16

    Reading silere. The Codex Casinensis gives sinire, which may be meant for sinere = give over.

17. 17

    Pro accidentium salute.

18. 18

    We have adopted Migne’s arrangement of these clauses. Routh, however, puts them thus: And that it may be made more intelligible to you, etc.,… (for in forgetfulness, etc., you have turned off, etc.), listen to me now for a brief space.

19. 19

    Reading “pondus belli toleraverant,” instead of the “pondus bellico tolerarant” of the Codex Casinensis.
