(a)6:2
That in Gazarim: Viz., the temple of the Samaritans. And as they were originally strangers, the name of Hospitalis (which signifies of or belonging to strangers) was applicable to the idol set up in their temple.(Challoner)
(b)6:4 The word meretricibus often refers to someone other than a prostitute, such as a kept woman or a promiscuous woman.(Conte)
(c)6:7 Liberi refers to the Italian pagan god, also equated to the Roman god Bacchus. The name ‘Liberi’ means ‘of the free one.’ This celebration was one of licentiousness, self-indulgence, and intoxication: what the unbelievers call freedoms. This whole passage has a spiritual meaning referring to the time of the Antichrist (in the early 25th century), when the people will be compelled to celebrate godless holidays which claim to celebrate freedoms, but are merely a celebration of licentiousness and various other sins.(Conte)
(d)6:11
Philip: The governor of Jerusalem.(Challoner)
(e)6:20 He did not want to be influenced by an inordinate love for his own life, above the will of God.(Conte)
(f)6:21
Wicked pity: Their pity was wicked, inasmuch as it suggested that wicked proposal of saving his life by dissimulation.(Challoner)
(g)6:23 The word ‘infernum’ can mean Hell or it can refer merely to any afterlife, or to death under adverse circumstances.(Conte)
