Cf. Eusebius, _Demons. Evan._, iii. 7, 15, βάρβαροι καὶ Ἕλληνες τὰς περὶ τοῦ Ἰησοῦ γραφὰς πατρίοις χαρακτῆρσιν καὶ πατρίῳ φωνῇ μετελάμβανον. Zahn, _GK._ i. 33; Theoph., v. 64; Laud. Const., xvii. 9. Footnote 82: The date of Tatian’s birth is uncertain. Zahn decides for the year 110. He was in the prime of manhood by the year 160. See Hastings, _Bible Dictionary_, ii. p. 697. Footnote 83: See below, p. 213, n. 3. Footnote 84: The Peshitto, so indicated from the principal edition by Schaaf, 1708-9. Footnote 85: _The Dialogues of Athanasius and Zacchaeus, and of Timothy and Aquila._ Edited with Prolegomena and Facsimiles by F. C. Conybeare (Oxford, 1898; _Anecdota Oxoniensia, Classical Series, Part VIII._). See Notice in the _Lit. Cbl._, 1899, No. 5, col. 154 f. Footnote 86: Dates are still reckoned in Syria according to the Greek era, counting from the year 312 B.C. Footnote 87: Hierapolis, now Membidsch on the Euphrates. Footnote 88: I. H. Hall, _Syriac Manuscript Gospels of a Pre-Harklensian Version_, 1883. Footnote 89: The Gospels appeared in 1778, the Acts and Catholic Epistles in 1799, and the Pauline Epistles in 1803. Footnote 90: In Tischendorf’s critical apparatus these fragments are indicated as Syr^{p(osterior)} or as Syr^{whit(e)}. It would be better to use the symbol Syr^{po(lycarp)} for the first version of 508 made by Polycarp for Philoxenus, and Syr^{tho(mas)} for Thomas of Harkel’s recension of 616. Gebhardt’s notation is as follows:—Syr^a is the Curetonian; Syr^b is the Peshitto; Syr^c is the Harklean, of which again Syr^{ct} is the text, Syr^{cm} the margin, Syr^{c*} sub asterisco; Syr^d is the Jerusalem Syriac; while Syr^{bodl} is the text of 2 Peter, 2 and 3 John, and Jude. Zahn proposes to indicate the Philoxenian (Tischendorf’s Syr^{bodl}) by Syr^2, and the Harklean by Syr^3; for the Gospels he would employ Syr^c, Syr^s, Syr^h; Syr^1, therefore, is the Peshitto.
