certain.

Some deem this and the following word spurious.
Footnote 1113:
Literally, “evil.”

Footnote 1117:
In the shorter recension there is ζηλώσῃ, and in the longer ζηλῶσαι;
hence the variety of rendering, but the translation is by no means
certain.

THE EPISTLE OF IGNATIUS TO THE PHILADELPHIANS.
SHORTER.
_Ignatius, who is also called Theophorus, to the church of God the
Father, and our Lord Jesus Christ, which is at Philadelphia, in Asia,
which has obtained mercy, and is established in the harmony of God, and
rejoiceth unceasingly[1139] in the passion of our Lord, and is filled
with all mercy through His resurrection; which I salute in the blood of
Jesus Christ, who is our eternal and enduring joy, especially if [men]
are in unity with the bishop, the presbyters, and the deacons, who have
been appointed according to the mind of Jesus Christ, whom He has
established in security, after His own will, and by His Holy Spirit._
