CHAP. IV. That there being a disturbance in the Secular as well as the Ecclesiastick State of affairs, the Ma∣cedonians, having convened a Synod at Lamp∣sacus, did again confirm the Antiochian Creed, and Anathematized that [published] at Ari∣minum, and did again ratifie the deposition of Acacius and Eudoxius.

THese things hapning to be thus, neither the Civil, nor the Ecclesiastick State of affairs was in a sedate posture. Those therefore who had requested of the Emperour a power of con∣vening a Synod, met at Lampsacus in the same Consulate [which I have even now mentioned.] This was the seventh year from the Synod which had been assembled at Seleucia. Having again confirmed the * 1.1 Antiochian Creed there, to which they had subscribed at Seleucia, they Anathema∣tize that Creed published at Ariminum by those [Bishops] with whom they had heretofore a∣greed in opinion: and again condemned Acacius's and Eudoxius's party, as having been justly de∣posed. Eudoxius Bishop of Constantinople could not in any wise contradict these determinations; for the Civil War, which was imminent, per∣mitted him not to revenge himself of them. Wherefore, Eleusius Bishop of Cyzicum and his Adherents, were at that time for some little while the stronger party, in regard they asserted that termed Macedonius's opinion, a 1.2 which before had a very mean repute, but was then rendred more conspicuous and better known in the Synod at Lampsacus. I suppose this Synod to have been the reason, why those termed the Macedo∣niani are so numerous in the Hellespont. For Lampsacus is Scituate in a narrow Bay of the Hellespont. This was the conclusion of the Synod of Lampsacus.

a 1.2

Musculus and Chri∣stophorson have ren∣dred these words [〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉] Paulo antea, a lit∣tle before; as if it had been [〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉.] I am of the opinion; that this place is faulty, and by a small change is thus to be restored: 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉, which before had a very mean repute, but was then ••••ndred more con∣spicuous and better known in the Synod at Lampsacus. He speaks con∣cerning Macedonius's Heresie, which hitherto (says he) had been obscure and unknown: but then, in the Synod of Lampsacus, it be∣came most apparently known. I doubt not but Socrates wrote agree∣able to my emendation. Concerning this Synod of Lampsacus, see Baronius, at the year of Christ, 365. Vales.
