[110]Obscure, but apparently original. The Ethiopic and Arabic have “for it is not possible for an alien to be baptized”; the Testament “for the vile and alien spirit abides in him”. [111]Sahidic “and”. [112]Supplied for clarity. [113]The Sahidic and Ethiopic have “to the bishop or presbyter”; the Arabic has “to the bishop”. [114]Or the sense may be that the presbyter, the candidate and the deacon all stand naked in the water; in the above translation “the candidates” was supplied for “them” and the following “them” was substituted for “him”. In the Sahidic, Ethiopic and Arabic the deacon causes the candidate to repeat a rather elaborate creed: the Sahidic form is: “I believe in the only true God, the Father Almighty, and His only-begotten Son, Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour, and in [the] Holy Ghost, the life-giver to the universe, the Trinity in one substance, one Godhead, one Lordship, one Kingdom, one faith, one baptism in the Catholic apostolic holy church. Amen”. The Canons agree practically with the Testament. [115]This question is omitted in the Sahidic, Ethiopic and Arabic, but it is found in the Canons. [116]The Canons add at this point: ‘Every time he says at the baptism: “I baptize thee in the name of the Father and of the Son and of [the] Holy Ghost, the Trinity in unity”’. None of the other sources have anything corresponding. [117]Jungklaus includes this paragraph in the preceding chapter. [118]Here the doxology is given as it stands in the Latin. But compare the earlier doxologies. [119]The Latin adds “In Greek _antitypum_”. [120]The Latin adds “In Greek _similitudinem_”. [121]Evidently omitted by accident. [122]Vienna fragment. [123]An Ethiopic section generally printed here (24) is not in the other versions and is irrelevant to the context; it will be found on p. 58. [124]The apparent sense. [125]Or, “this bread is ‘blessed bread’; it is not ‘the bread of the thanksgiving’, as is the Body of the Lord”. The Sahidic translator probably did not understand the original Greek exactly. [126]The Latin adds, “What in Greek is called an _apoforetum_”. [127]The apparent sense. [128]Literally “make haste”. [129]Literally “make the blessing”. [130]Sahidic “that we all should be sober and that the heathen may envy us”. The Ethiopic adds a long section that has no parallel in other sources; see p. 58. [131]Literally, “on account of the lot that falls”. Perhaps: “because of his (their?) duties”? [132]Friday, Saturday and Sunday after midnight. [133]So the Latin and the Testament. The Sahidic, Ethiopic and Arabic have “before the proper time to eat”. [134]The texts have “when he has learned the truth”; the above, however, seems to be the meaning. [135]31-32 are omitted here; they will be found on p. 60. [136]Literally “let everyone choose for himself to go to that place”. [137]Sahidic “for”.
