Page 13, f. 9 b. These discourses of John and Matthew are almost identical
with the commencement of the AtSa^r/.
Page 1 8, f. n b. The Doctrine of Addai is also contained under the title
Doctrine of the Apostles in Cureton, Syriac Documents, 1864, pp. 24 ff. with notes
on p. 1 66 ff.
In Lagarde's Reliquiae Juris Ecclesiastici Antiquissimae Graece, pp. 89 — 92, will
be found a translation into Greek of this portion of the Didascalia, as far as to
page 21, 1. 24, inclusive.
Lagarde has also translated the first six books into Greek for Bunsen (see
Christianity and Mankind, vol. vi.). For quotations from the Didascalia in the
works of St Epiphanius (obiit 403) see this work of Bunsen, pp. 41, 42.
Page 22, 1. 31. The mention of "a Nestorian" in this place would make us

of those contained in the Sinai Palimpsest.
Page 38, 1. 9 in a copper star. This addition to 2 Chron. xxxiii. 1 1 has
hitherto been known only from the Chronicon of Bar Hebrseus (see ed. Bruns, and
Kirsch, p. 26, or ed. Bedjan, p. 27) and from Anastasius on Psalm vi. (see Wace,
Apocrypha, vol. ii. p. 363).
The Jewish Targum on 2 Chron. xxxiii. 1 1 says that Manasseh was confined in
a K&JTlJ HI/ID — a mule of brass. This is supposed by Dr Nestle to be a mistake
for H /TD = zodiac. He has just published an explanation of this word in the
Zeitschrift f. d. alttest. Wissenschaft. I understand him to mean that it was a brazen
bull, representing the constellation Taurus, in which the unfortunate king was
enclosed.
