Tertullian survived his wife; and we cannot date these books earlier than about the time of his writing the De Pallio, in the opinion of some.]\n5 Posteritati; or, with Mr. Dodgson, \"our future.\"s1.v4.a1.w4.b1.f7 Deputantur.\n6 Doldium; alluding to certain laws respecting a widow's power of receiving \"in its entirety\" her deceased husband's property.\n10 Nulla ... neminem - two negatives.\n11 See Matt. xxii. 23-33; Mark xii. 18-27; Luke xx. 27-40.\n12 Jam hinc. See beginning of chapter.\n17 \"Fas,\" strictly divine law, opp. to \"jus,\" human law; thus \"lawful,\" as opp. to \"legal.\"\n18 Plurifariam matrimoniis uti. The neut. pl. \"matrimonia\" is sometimes used for \"wives.\" Comp. c. v. ad fin. and de Paen., c. xii. ad fin.\n19 Sermo, i.e., probably the personal Word. Comp. de Or., c. i. ad init.\n20 Rom. ii. 28, 29; Phil. iii. 3; Col. ii. 11.\n21 Saeculi. The meaning here seems clearly to be, as in the text, \"the Jewish age\" or dispensation; as in the passages referred to - 1 Cor. x. 11, where it is ta telh twn aiwnwn; and Heb. ix. 26, where again it is twn aiwnwn, the Jewish and all preceding ages being intended.\n22 \"Jam hinc,\" i.e., apparently from the time of Christ's advent.\n25 Matt. x. 23; perhaps confused with xxiii. 34.\n26 Comp. de Idol., c. xxiii., and the note there on \"se negant.\"\n27 i.e., in martyrdom, on the ground of that open confession.\n30 Laqueum = broxon (1 Cor. vii. 35), \"a noose,\" \"lasso\" (\"snare,\" Eng. ver.). \"Laqueo trahuntur inviti\" (Bengel).\n33 Adulamur: \"we fawn upon,\" or \"caress,\" or \"flatter.\" Comp. de Paen., c. vi. sub init.: \"flatter their own sweetness.\"\n34 \"Firmum,\" opp. to \"infirmam\" above. In the passage there referred to (Matt. xxvi. 41) the word is proqumon.\n35 Tuemur. Mr. Dodgson renders, \"guard not.\"\n37 i.e., apparently second marriages: \"disjunctis a matrimonio\" can scarcely include such as were never \"juncti;\" and comp. the \"praemissis maritis\" below.\n38 Comp. Phil. iv. 3; 2 Tim. ii. 19; Mal. iii. 16; and similar passages.\n39 1 John i. 1; Luke xxiv. 39; John xx. 17.\n47 Comp. Phil. iv. 19; 1 Tim. vi. 8.\n48 Comp. 1 Cor. vii. 35, exp. in Eng. ver.\n50 Comp. c. iv. above \"praemissis maritis;\" \"when their husbands have preceded them (to glory).\"\n52 Phil. i. 23; comp. de Pa., c. ix. ad fin.\n55 \"Parricidiis.\" So Oehler seems to understand it.\n56 Luke xxi. 23; Matt. xxiv. 19.\n58 \"Expiasse\" - a rare but Ciceronian use of the word.\n62 Saeculi. Comp. 1 Cor. x. 11; but the Greek there is, ta telh twn aiwnwn. By the \"blindness,\" Tertullian may refer to Gen. xix. 11.\n63 Or, \"short\" (Eng. ver.); 1 Cor. vii. 29. o kairo <\\dq_ounestalmeno<\\|dq_, \"in collecto.\"\n64 \"\"Matrimonia\", \" neut. pl. again for the fem., the abstract for the concrete. See c. ii., \"to multiply wives,\" and the note there. In the Greek (1 Cor. vii. 29) it is <\\dq_gunaika<\\|dq_: but the ensuing chapter shows that Tertullian refers the passage to women as well.\n65 Comp. de Pa., xiii., and Matt. xix. 12. Comp. too, de Ex. Cast., c. i.\n67 Oehler marks this as a question.","title":"chr/ecf/004/footnote/fn7.htm","type":"page"}
