6. 7

   John i. 11; Ps. l. 3. ἦλθεν—ἐμφανῶς. The text plainly requires this connection with evident allusion to Ps. l. “Our God will manifestly come” ἐμφανῶς ἥξει, which passage our author connects with another from John i.—Tr.

   Ecclus. i. 10.

8. 9

   2 Cor. v. 17.

9. 10

   τὴν ἀκίνητον ἧτταν ἐγκαυχησάμενοι. It seems better to retain this. Pantinus would substitute ἀνίκητον for ἀκίνητον, and render less happily “invicto hoc certamine victos.”

10. 11

    [See p. 309, note 1, supra, and the reflection upon even the Banquet of Philosophers, the Symposium of Plato.]
