PHILIPPUS.
PHILIP, a Priest and a Disciple of S. Jerom, hath composed a very plain Commentary upon Job. He hath also written some Letters to his Friends, in some of which he Ex∣horts * 1.1 them to endure Afflictions and Poverty patiently. He Died under the Empire of Mar∣cian. This is what Gennadius says of this Author. We have yet a Commentary upon Job under the Name of this Father, Printed at Basil in 1527, [both in Folio and Quarto]. It is nothing to the purpose, that it hath been since attributed to Beda, and Printed under his Name among his Works, because this Author himself in his Treatise De Uncia, i. e. of the Ounce, cites it under the Name of Philip. But 'tis not absolutely certain, that it is the Work of the Scholar of S. Jerom. The Commentary upon Job falsly reckoned for S. Jerom's, is nothing but an Abridgment of this.
