Item description from seller

pp. 213-215. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of the ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Author's name handwritten on cover, otherwise good and clean. - From the text: The editors of Christian authors have naturally been much more Christiani than Ciceronian! Yet the study of Roman antiquities, and in particular of Roman religious terminology, may often be very helpful in discovering the correct sense and correct text of hitherto unintelligible passages. The text of Rufinus, Origenis in Numéros Homilia 17.2, offers an instructive example. The text as printed in the authoritative edition by W. A. Baehrens, Origines, Werke 7 (Die Griechischen Christlichen Schriftsteller der ersten drei Jahrhunderte 30, Leipzig, 1921), 156, reads as follows (Origenes-Rufinus comment on Num. 24:1 referring to Balaam): Denique "non abiit" [sc. Balaam] inquit [i.e. Scripture says] "ex more in occursum auspiciis"; non enim more sibi solito, stultis et inanibus sensibus rapietur in animalibus mutis et pecudibus Dei considerans voluntatem, sicut hi, qui ex istis talibus auspicia colligunt, sed agnoscet etiam ipse quia neque "de bobus cura est Deo," similiter neque de ovibus neque de avibus aliisque animalibus, sed si qua de his scripta sunt, propter homines intelliget scripta. [The same text in Migne, Patr. Graeca, vol. 20, col. 704]. - Wikipedia: Jerzy Sever Linderski (born 21 August 1934 in Lwow, Poland, now Lviv) is a contemporary Polish scholar of ancient history and Roman religion and law.
