10.  The true Christ, the Only-begotten Son of God, comes no more from the earth.  If any come making false shows φαντασιοκοπῶν, a rare word, rendered “frantic” in Ecclus. iv. 30:  its more precise meaning seems to be “making a false show,” which is here applied to a false Christ, and again in § 14 to the father of lies who makes a vain show of false miracles. in the wilderness, go not forth; if they say, Lo, here is the Christ, Lo, there, believe it not Matt. xxiv. 23..  Look no longer downwards and to the earth; for the Lord descends from heaven; not alone as before, but with many, escorted by tens of thousands of Angels; nor secretly as the dew on the fleece Ps. lxxii. 6.  Cf. § 1, note 1.; but shining forth openly as the lightning.  For He hath said Himself, As the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west, so shall also the coming of the Son of Man be Matt. xxiv. 27.; and again, And they shall see the Son of Man coming upon the clouds with power and great glory, and He shall send forth His Angels with a great trumpet Matt. xxiv. v. 30.; and the rest.
