²⁶¹Instrumento.

²⁶²Isa. xl. 13.

²⁶³1 Cor. iii. 10.

²⁶⁴Depalatorem.

²⁶⁵So the A.V. of Isa. iii. 3; but the Septuagint and St. Paul use the self-same term, sofo\j a0rxite/ktwn.

²⁶⁶1 Cor. iii. 11.

²⁶⁷Isa. xxviii. 16.

²⁶⁸We add the original of this sentence: "Nisi si structorem se terreni operis Deus profitebatur, ut non de suo Christo significaret, qui futurus esset fundamentum credentium in eum, super quod prout quisque superstruxerit, dignam scilicet vel indignam doctrinam si opus ejus per ignem probabitur, si merces illi per ignem rependetur, creatoris est, quia per ignem judicatur vestra superaedificatio, utique sui fundamenti, id est sui Christi." Tertullian is arguing upon an hypothesis suggested by Marcion's withdrawal of his Christ from everything "terrene." Such a process as is described by St. Paul in this passage, 1 Cor. i. 12-15, must be left to the Creator and His Christ.

²⁶⁹1 Cor. iii. 16.

²⁷⁰The text has vitiabitur, "shall be defiled."

²⁷¹1 Cor. iii. 17.

²⁷²1 Cor. iii. 18.

²⁷³1 Cor. iii. 19.

²⁷⁴The older reading, "adhuc sensum pristina praejudicaverunt," we have preferred to Oehler's "Ad hunc sensum," etc.

²⁸²Isa. xlii. 6.

²⁸³Ps. vii. 9.

²⁸⁴1 Cor. iv. 5.

²⁸⁵1 Cor. iv. 9.

²⁸⁶Our author's version is no doubt right. The Greek does not admit the co-ordinate, triple conjunction of the A.V.: Qe/atron e0genh/qhmen tw=| ko/smw|-kai\ a0gge/loij kai\ a0nqrw/poij.

²⁸⁷Nimirum: introducing a strong ironical sentence against Marcion's conceit.

³⁰⁹One of Marcion's Antitheses.

³¹⁰Viderint.

³¹¹Et Christus: Pamelius and Rigaltius here read "Christi apostolus." Oehler defends the text as the author's phrase suggested (as Fr. Junius says) by the preceding words. "Moses or Christ." To which we may add, that in this paticular place St. Paul mentions his injunction as Christ's especially, ou0k e0gw\, all' o9 Ku/rioj, 1 Cor. vii. 10.
