258 [A very pregnant passage, as has often been noted. But let us imitate the pious reticence with which this section concludes.]

271 The five following chapters were omitted in the earlier editions, but added by Feuardentius. Most mss.MSS; ., too, did not contain them. It is probable that the scribes of the middle ages rejected them on account of their inculcating millenarian notions, which had been long extinct in the Church. Quotations from these five chapters have been collected by Harvey from Syriac and Armenian mss.MSS; . lately come to light.

293 From this to the end of the section there is an Armenian version extant, to be found in the Spicil. Solesm. i. p. 1, edited by M. Pitra, Paris 1852, and which was taken by him from an Armenian ms. . in the Mechitarist Library at Venice, described as being of the twelfth century.

294 This word "true" is not found in the Armenian.
