_Going ... letter._ Now taking the book, I sat down in one place and wrote the whole of it in order.—_Pal._ In the ancient MSS. there was nothing to mark out where one word ended and another commenced. Footnote 1569: _God ... against_, omitted in Vat. Footnote 1570: _Not_, omitted in Vat. Footnote 1571: _Make known._ Rebuke with these words.—_Vat._ Footnote 1572: Let her restrain her tongue.—_Vat._ Footnote 1573: _For ... you._ For she will be instructed, after you have rebuked her with those words which the Lord has commanded to be revealed to you.—_Vat._ Footnote 1574: _Doubt not._ And so act.—_Vat._ Footnote 1575: _Passage._ Your journey.—_Pal._ Footnote 1576: And whosoever shall not deny his own life.—_Vat._ Footnote 1577: _Those ... coming._ The meaning of this sentence is obscure. The Vat. is evidently corrupt, but seems to mean: “The Lord has sworn by His Son, that whoever will deny Him and His Son, promising themselves life thereby, they [God and His Son] will deny them in the days that are to come.” The days that are to come would mean the day of judgment and the future state. See Matt. x. 33. Footnote 1578: _Became gracious._ Will be gracious.—_Pal._ Footnote 1579: The Vat. adds: but forgetfulness of them, eternal life. Footnote 1580: _Personal._ Worldly.—_Vat._ Footnote 1581: _You ... careless._ You neglected them as if they did not belong to you.—_Vat._ Footnote 1582: But you will be saved for not having departed from the living God. And your simplicity and singular self-control will save you, if you remain stedfast.—_Vat._ Footnote 1583: Now you will say: Lo! great tribulation cometh on.—_Vat._ Lo! exceedingly great tribulation cometh on.—_Lips._ Footnote 1584: Eldad (or Eldat or Heldat or Heldam) and Modat (Mudat or Modal) are mentioned in Num. xi. 26, 27. The apocryphal book inscribed with their name is now lost. Cotelerius compares for the passage Ps. xxxiv. 9. Footnote 1585: _The church._ The church of God.—_Vat._ Footnote 1586: Grapte is supposed to have been a deaconess. VISION THIRD.
