Section 8

Notes

1. 1

   περὶ ἀνθρώπων, which is the reading of Codex B, instead of ἀπὸ ἀνθρώπων.

2. 2

   ἄμετροι, the reading of Codex B instead of ἄνεμοι.

3. 3

   The text is, ἀπὸ ψυχῶν καὶ ἀπωλείας ἀνθρώπων. We may suggest some such correction as ἀποψυχόντων κατ᾽ ἀπωλείας ἀνθρωπων ="men’s hearts failing them concerning the destruction.”

4. 4

   διάφοροι.  Better with B, ἀδιάφοροι = promiscuous, without distinction, and so perhaps continuous or unseasonable.

5. 5

   Matt. xxiv. 12.

6. 6

   Luke xxi. 8, 9.
