Jerome. Lives of Illustrious Men 126

St Jerome (AD 345–420) · De viris illustribus · PL 23, 598–720

126 Ambrose the disciple of Didymus PL 23, 713

Ambrose of Alexandria, pupil of Didymus, wrote a long work On doctrines against Apollinaris, and as some one has lately informed me, Commentaries on Job. He is still living.

Ambrosius Alexandrinus, auditor Didymi, scripsit adversum Apollinarium volumen multorum versuum de dogmatibus, et ut ad me nuper quodam narrante perlatum est, commentarium in Job, qui usque hodie superest.

Ἀμβρόσιος Ἀλεξανδρεὺς, ἀκροατὴς Διδύμου, ἔγραψε κατὰ Ἀπολλιναρίου τεῦχος πολλῶν στίχων, περὶ δογμάτων, καὶ καθὼς ὑπόγυον διηγουμένου τινὸς ἔγνων, ὑπομνήματα εἰς τὸν Ἰὼβ, ὃς ἄχρι τοῦ παρόντος περίεστιν.
