The Benedictine and
earlier printed texts read ὁ
γεννηθεὶς
[ἀπαθῶς πρὸ
τῶν χρόνων
αἰωνίων]: but
the words in brackets are not found in the best mss. The false grammar betrays a spurious insertion,
which also interrupts the sense. On the meaning of the
phrase ὁ γεννηθεὶς
ἀπαθῶς, see note on vii.
5: οὐ
πάθει πατὴρ
γενόμενος.
