96 Matt. ii. 14-16. [The writer seems to identify Herod the Great and Herod Antipas.-R.]

101 Qeoto/koj- a word used several times by Athanasius (died 373), e.g., in Orat. iii. Contra Arianos, c. 14 and 29. The refusal of Nestorius to give this epithet to Mary was the commencement, in 428, of the long struggle between the rival sees of Constantinople and Alexandria. See Haag, Histoire des Dogmes Chretiens, i. 190. The paragraphs about the Qeoto/koj in this chapter are interpolations.
