[149:5] Eph. vi. 13, 14, 16, 17.

[149:8] Eph. iv. 1.

[150:1] [Greek:  en olo to praitorio]—­“We never find the word employed for the Imperial house at Rome; and we believe the truer view to be—­that it denotes here, not the palace itself, but the quarters of that part of the Imperial guards which was in immediate attendance on the Emperor."-Conybeare and Howson, ii. 428.

[153:4] In the “Life of St Columba” by Adamnan (Dublin, 1857), the learned editor, Dr Reeves, has given an interesting account of an ancient leather book-case in his own possession.  See “Life of St Columba,” p. 115.  If Paul referred to a case, it was probably to one of a larger description.
