28.  Let no one be misled by the fact of the apostle’s frequently omitting the name of the Father and of the Holy Spirit when making mention of baptism, or on this account imagine that the invocation of the names is not observed.  “As many of you,” he says, “as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ;” Gal. iii. 27, R.V. and again, “As many of you as were baptized into Christ were baptized into his death.” Rom. vi. 3, with change to 2d person.  For the naming of Christ is the confession of the whole, cf. note on p. 17. shewing forth as it does the God who gave, the Son who received, and the Spirit who is, the unction. “ἡ τοῦ Χριστοῦ προσηγορία …δηλοῖ τόν τε Χρίσαντα Θεὸν καὶ τὸν Χρισθέντα Υἱ& 232·ν καὶ τὸ Χρίσμα τὸ Πνεῦμα.”  So we have learned from Peter, in the Acts, of “Jesus of Nazareth whom God anointed with the Holy Ghost;” Acts x. 38. and in Isaiah, “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because the Lord hath anointed me;” Is. lx. 1. and the Psalmist, “Therefore God, even thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.” Ps. xlv. 7.  Scripture, however, in the case of baptism, sometimes plainly mentions the Spirit alone. No subject occurs in the original, but “Scripture” seems better than “the Apostle” of the Bened. Tr.  “Videtur fecisse mentionem,” moreover, is not the Latin for φαίνεται μνημονεύσας, but for φαίνεται μνημονεῦσαι.
