Notes (1)

  1. The headword phrase (not identified by Adler, but identifiable via the TLG) occurs in Fragments on Psalms 1-150 attributed to Origen, and in Basil of Caesarea, Homilies on the Six Days. In both instances, the commentator is praising the order of words in the Biblical text.
  2. 1Gloss lacking, Adler reports, in mss AFV. ↩
