³⁴⁰ Tuebor.

³⁴¹ Ipsum.

³⁴² Marcion's diversitas implied an utter incompatibility between John and Christ; for it assigned John to the Creator, from whom it took Christ away.

³⁴³ De disciplinis: or, "about discipleships."

³⁴⁴ De auctoritatibus; or, "about the authors thereof."

³⁵³ Isa. xlix. 18.

³⁵⁴ Song of Sol. iv. 8.

³⁵⁵ There is also in Hebrew an affinity between hnbl@

, "frankincense," and zwbbl@

, "Lebanon." [Note this strange but reiterated and emphatic identification of incense with idolatry. In the Gentile church it was throughly identified with Paganism.]

³⁵⁶ See also book i. chap. xxix. [on this reservation of Baptism see Elucidation II.]

³⁸² Isa. i. 14.

³⁸³ This obscure passage runs thus in the original: "Marcion captat status controlversiae (ut aliquid ludam cum mei Domini veritate), scripti et voluntatis." Status is a technical word in rhetoric. "Est quaestio quae ex prima causarum conflictione nascitur." See Cicero, Topic. c. 25, Part. c. 29; and Quinctilian, Instit. Rhetor. iii. 6. (Oehler).

³⁹³ Luke vi. 7.

³⁹⁴ That is, the Christ of another God.

³⁹⁵ Ex. xx. 16.

³⁹⁶ It is impossible to say where Tertullian got this reading. Perhaps his LXX. copy might have had (in Ex. xx. 10): Ou0 poih/seij e0n au0th|= pa=n e@rgon sou, instead of su; every clause ending in sou, which follows in that verse. NO critical authority, however, now known warrants such a reading. [It is probably based inferentially on verse 9, "all thy work."]

³⁹⁷ Ex. xii. 16.

³⁹⁸ The LXX. of the latter clause of Ex. xii. 16 thus runs: plh\n o#sa poihqh/setai pa/sh yuxh=. Tertullian probably got this reading from this clause, although the Hebrew is to this effect: "Save that which every man (or, every soul) must eat, "which the Vulgate renders: "Exceptis his, quae ad vescendum pertinent."

³⁹⁹ Liberandae animae: perhaps saving life.

⁴⁰³ Animae omni: or, any life.

⁴⁰⁴ Luke vi. 5.

⁴⁰⁵ Tuebatur.

⁴¹⁰ Isa. xxix. 13.

⁴¹¹ Isa. lviii. 13 and lvi. 2.

⁴¹² Matt. v. 17.

⁴¹³ Obstruxit.

⁴¹⁴ "Destroy"...It was hardly necessary for Oehler to paraphrase our author's characteristically strong sentence by, "since Marcion thought that he had gagged," etc.

⁴¹⁵ In other words, "permits to be done on the Sabbath."

⁴¹⁶ Praesidia.

⁴¹⁷ Quod, not quae, as if in apposition with praesidia.
