ld assertions are indelibly tinged with the colors
of the Apollinarian heresy; but the serious, and perhaps the sincere
professions of Nestorius have satisfied the wiser and less partial
theologians of the present times. [40]

[Footnote 33: La Croze (Christianisme des Indes, tom. i. p. 44-53.
Thesaurus Epistolicus, La Crozianus, tom. iii. p. 276--280) has detected
the use, which, in the ivth, vth, and vith centuries, discriminates the
school of Diodorus of Tarsus and his Nestorian disciples.]

[Footnote 34: Deipara; as in zoology we familiarly speak of oviparous
and viviparous animals. It is not easy to fix the invention of this
word, which La Croze (Christianisme des Indes, tom. i. p. 16) ascribes
to Eusebius of Caesarea and the Arians. The orthodox testimonies are
produced by Cyril and Petavius, (Dogmat. Theolog. tom. v. l. v. c. 15,
p. 254, &c.;) but the veracity of the saint is questionable, and the
epithet so easily slides from the margin to the text of a Catholic Ms]

[Footnote 35: Basnage, in his Histoire de l'Eglise, a work of
controversy, (tom l. p. 505,) justifies the mother, by the blood, of
God, (Acts, xx. 28, with Mill's various readings.) But the Greek Mss.
are far from unanimous; and the primitive style of the blood of Christ
is preserved in the Syriac version, even in those copies which were
used by the Christians of St. Thomas on the coast of Malabar, (La Croze,
Christianisme des Indes, tom. i. p. 347.) The jealousy of the Nestorians
and Monophysites has guarded the purity of their text.]

[Footnote 36: The Pagans of Egypt already laughed at the new Cybele of
the Christians, (Isidor. l. i. epist. 54;) a letter was forged in the
name of Hypatia, to ridicule the theology of her assassin, (Synodicon,
c. 216, in iv. tom. Concil. p. 484.) In the article of Nestorius, Bayle
has scattered some loose philosophy on the worship of the Virgin Mary.]

[Footnote 37: The item of the Greeks, a mutual loan or transfer of the
idioms or properties of each nature to the other--of infinity to man,
passibility to God, &c. Twelve rules on this nicest of subjects compose
the Theological Grammar of Petavius, (Dogmata Theolog. tom. v. l. iv. c.
14, 15, p 209, &c.)]

approved by the church, (Tillemont. Mem. Eccles. tom. xiv. p. 368--372.)
