Notes on the current edition

Epistulae

1. πρὸς Εὐστάθιον πρεσβύτερον Ἀντιοχείας A, B; πρὸς Εὐστάθιον φιλόσοφον ἀπὸ Ἀντιοχείας πρὸ τοῦ πρεσβύτερον κατασταθῆναι C, D, G; Εὐσταθίῳ φιλοσόφῳ Ἀντιοχείας περὶ τοῦ πρεσβυτερίου F. According to the Benedictines none of these titles is possible because Eustathius was not a presbyter, but a heathen, as is indicated by Basil's words: Is not all this the hand of fate, as you yourself would say, and the work of necessity.
2. λεγομένης om. A B, C, D.
3. προϊδοίμεθα C, D.
