us Bassus in Boeckh _Corp. Inscr. Graec._ 2631, 2632. [294:3] Cominius Proclus, and perhaps Quadratus: see Akerman's _Numismatic Illustrations of the New Testament_ p. 39. [294:4] _Corp. Inscr. Lat._ iii. 6072, an Ephesian inscription discovered by Mr Wood. [294:5] _Corp. Inscr. Lat._ iii. 218. [294:6] Cesnola's _Cyprus_ p. 425. [295:1] Dean Alford indeed (on Acts xiii. 7), following some previous writers, mentions a Sergius Paulus, intermediate in date between the two others--the authority of Pliny and the friend of Galen--whom he describes as 'one of the consules suffecti in A.D. 94.' This however is a mistake. A certain inscription, mentioning L. Sergius Paullus as consul, is placed by Muratori (p. cccxiv. 3) and others under the year 94; but there is good reason to believe that it refers to the friend of Galen, and must be assigned to the year when he was consul for the first time, as suffectus, _i.e._ about A.D. 150. See Marini _Atti e Monumenti de' Fratelli Arvali_ p. 198; Waddington _Fastes des Provinces Asiatiques_ p. 731. [296:1] This person is twice mentioned by Galen _de Anat. Admin._ i. 1 (_Op._ ii. p. 218, ed. Kuehn): [Greek: toude tou nun eparchou tes Rhomaion poleos, andros ta panta proteuontos ergois te kai logois tois en philosophia, Sergiou Paulou hupatou]: _de Praenot_. 2 (_Op._ ii. p. 612), [Greek: aphikonto Sergios te ho kai Paulos, hos ou meta polun chronon huparchos] (l. [Greek: eparchos) egeneto tes poleos, kai Phlabios, hupatikos men on ede kai autos, espeukos de peri ten Aristotelous philosophian, hosper kai ho Paulos, hois diegesamenos, k.t.l.] In this latter passage the words stand [Greek: Sergios te kai ho Paulos] in Kuehn and other earlier printed editions which I have consulted, but they are quoted [Greek: Sergios te ho kai Paulos] by Wetstein and others. I do not know on what authority this latter reading rests, but the change in order is absolutely necessary for the sense; for (1) in this passage nothing more is said about Sergius as distinct from Paulus, whereas Paulus is again and again mentioned, so that plainly one person alone is intended. (2) In the parallel passage Sergius Paulus is mentioned, and the same description is given of him as of Paulus here. The alternative would be to omit [Greek: kai ho] altogether, as the passage is tacitly quoted in Borghesi _Oeuvres_ viii. p. 504. [296:2] Melito in Euseb. _H.E._ iv. 26: see Waddington _Fastes des Provinces Asiatiqu
