The blessed Polycarp bore witness [i.e. was martyred] ... He was arrested by Herod while Philip of Tralles was high priest [and] Statius Quadratus was proconsul, but Jesus Christ - to whom be glory, honor, majesty and an eternal throne from generation to generation - was reigning as king forever. Amen. (The Martyrdom of Polycarp, ch. 21, my translation, based on Ehrman's)Posted by Kenny at November 10, 2008 09:00 AM
