New Papias Fragment

I added a new fragment from Jerome’s Commentary on the Apocalypse, added a comment to Irenaeus’ fragment and added another comment to one of Eusebius’ fragments, both of which concern Victorinus of Pettau.  If anyone knows of other fragments of Papias, please let me know.  I have now run out of leads.  Also, Kevin Edgecomb appears to have made the only English translation of Victorinus’ Commentary on the Apocalypse and put it online here. The Ante-Nicene Church Father translation of Victorinus’ Commentary was actually Jerome’s revision of it.

    Yes I’ve heard of it but have not looked at it myself, my German is not good. Holmes seems to have used Kürzinger as a major resource so I have assumed that Holmes gave all the fragments that Kürzinger did. There is also an Italian work on Papias which is supposed to be top notch, but I haven’t looked at that either.

    I am planning on working on my German over the next 12 months so I hope that I can go back and revisit many of the German resources. Thanks for the note.
