Notes to Chapter 13 245
- On this homily, see my “The Pseudo-Hippolytean Homily on the Theophany (CPG 1917): A Neglected
Witness to Early Syrian Baptismal Rituals,” Studia Liturgica 39 (2009), 23–39. - So Chrysostom in the Stavronikita catechetical homilies 2.20-21, in Antoine Wenger, ed., Huit
catéchèses baptismales, SC 50bis (Paris: du Cerf, 1970), 145: “I renounce you, Satan, your pomp, your worship,
and your works. And I pledge myself to you (συντάσσομαὶ σοι), Christ.” Apostolic Constitutions VII.41.3: “I
pledge myself to Christ” (συντάσσομαι τῷ Χριστῷ). This statement is made after the apotaxis. - “The Christological Form of the Earliest Syntaxis: The Evidence of Pliny,” Studia liturgica 4.1 (2011):
1–8) with reference to Pliny Ep.X.96.7. - Kelly, Early Christian Creeds, 79.

- H. Lietzmann “Die Anfänge des Glaubensbekenntnisses,” in Kleine Schriften III, TU 74 (Berlin:
Akademie, 1962), 167 (originally published in 1921). Lietzmann was following on from an observation by
Karl Holl, “Zur Auslegung des 2. Artikels des sog. apostolischen Glaubensbekenntnisses,” in Gesammelte
Aufsätze zur Kirchengeschichte II (Tübingen: Mohr-Siebeck, 1928), 116–22 (originally published in 1919).
Holl’s work was also taken up by A. von Harnack, “Zur Abhandlung des Hrn. Holl: ‘zur Auslegung des - Artikels des sog. apostolischen Glaubensbekenntnisses,’” in Kleine Schriften zur alten Kirche: Berliner
Akademieschriften 1908–1930 (repr. Leipzig: Zentralantiquariat der deutschen demokratischen Republik,
1980), 562–66. - Lietzmann, “Die Anfänge des Glaubensbekenntnisses,” 169.
- This is the implication of my argument in “The Baptismal Creed in Traditio apostolica: Original or
Expanded?” though it is not spelled out. In that article, it is suggested that there was no original short form
of the christological sequence which had become expanded (as suggested by, among others, Wolfram Kinzig,
“‘Natum et passum etc.’ Zur Geschichte der Tauffragen in der lateinischen Kirche bis zu Luther,” in Kinzig,
Christoph Markschies, and Markus Vinzent, Tauffragen und Bekenntnis: Studien zur sogenannten ‘Traditio
Apostolica,’ zu den ‘Interrogationes de fide’ und zum ‘Römischen Glaubensbekenntnis’ (Berlin: de Gruyter, 1999),
75–183, and Johnson, “The Problem of Creedal Formulae.” - Cat. myst. 1.4-11.
- Cat. myst. 2.4.
- So L. Mitchell, “The Baptismal Rite in Chrysostom,” AT R 43 (1961): 401; Juliette Day, The Baptismal
Liturgy of Jerusalem: Fourth and Fifth-century Evidence from Palestine, Syria, and Egypt (Aldershot: Ashgate,
2007), 60. Cf., however, Bradshaw “Profession of Faith,” 142. - Hom.40 in I Cor. 379B Montfaucon.

DC: Catholic University of America, 1967), 150–51; Wenger, Huit catéchèses baptismales, 95–96. - A problem pointed out by Bradshaw, “Profession of Faith,” 138.
- Baptismal Instruction (Papadopoulos-Kerameus) 11.14.
- Mitchell, “Baptismal Rite in Chrysostom,” 401, suggests that the formula is “new” and has replaced
the “older” interrogation. This assumes, of course, that the interrogation had ever had a place in these rituals,
as Mitchell presupposes. - Finn, Liturgy of Baptism, 150–51; Wenger, Huit catéchèses baptismales, 95–96.
- See the apparently declarative statements to which Proclus alludes at Hom. 27.56 and the statement at
27.44 that “the words of the confession have been thoroughly taught to you.” - Dem. 3.
- Dem. 7.
