| Comment | Stefanides (1905: 605): 'Ἐν τέλει τῶν εἰς τὴν πρὸς Ἐφεσίους ὁμιλιῶν φέρεται τὸ κρυπτογράφημα τόδε: υὲθ'Ϡσζλὼφθ'νβαϚξὲὼθ' εϚ' ψλϚὼψσνυεϚϠσνἐϠζλϚω μεθ' ὃ τάδε· + "Χε (= Χριστέ) ἀρωγὸς φάνη θΐμες (= φάνηθι μου ;) τοῖς τῶν χειρῶν ἔργοις". Ταῦτα εἶναι ἁπλῆ τοῦ κρυπτογραφήματος μετάφρασις· ἡ ἀκατανόητος λέξις θΐμες παραμένει καὶ ἐν τῇ ἀνεξαρτήτως τῆς κειμένης μεταφράσεως ταύτης ἑρμηνείᾳ τοῦ κρυπτογραφήματος'. According to Lappa-Zizica - Rizou-Kouroupou (1991: 165), the cryptographic inscription is followed by a decoded version in a different hand: 'καὶ ἡ ἀνάγνωσή του, μελάνι μαῦρο, χέρι 4 μεταγενέστερο: "Χ(ριστ)ὲ ἀρωγὸς φάνηθί μ ἐς ἀεὶ τοῖς τῶν χειρῶν ἔργοις."' |
