74 Victorinus the bishop PL 23, 683

Victorinus, bishop of Pettau, was not equally familiar with Latin and Greek. On this account his works though noble in thought, are inferior in style. They are the following: Commentaries On Genesis, On Exodus, On Leviticus, On Isaiah, On Ezekiel, On Habakkuk, On Ecclesiastes, On the Song of Songs, On the Apocalypse of John, Against all heresies and many others. At the last he received the crown of martyrdom.

Victorinus, Petavionensis episcopus, non aeque Latine ut Graece noverat. Unde opera ejus grandia sensibus, 915 viliora videntur compositione verborum. Sunt autem haec: Commentarii in Genesim, in Exodum, in Leviticum, in Isaiam, in Ezechiel, in Abacuc, in Ecclesiasten, in Cantica Canticorum, in Apocalypsim Joannis, adversum omnes haereses, et multa alia. Ad extremum martyrio coronatus est.

Βικτωρῖνος Πεταβίωνος ἐπίσκοπος, οὐχ ὁμοίως Ῥωμαϊστὶ ὡς Ἑλληνιστὶ ἠπίστατο· διὸ τὰ ἔργα αὐτοῦ πάνυ μεγάλα ὄντα τοῖς 916 νοήμασιν, δοκεῖ εἶναι εὐτελῆ διὰ τὴν τῶν λόγων σύνθεσιν. Ἔστι δὲ ταῦτα· Ὑπομνήματα εἰς τὴν Γένεσιν, εἰς τὴν Ἔξοδον, εἰς Λευϊτικὸν, εἰς Ἠσαΐαν, εἰς Ἰεζεκιὴλ, εἰς Ἀβακοὺκ, εἰς Ἐκκλησιαστὴν, εἰς Ἄισματα των ᾀσμάτων, εἰς Ἀποκάλυψίν Ἰωάννου, κατὰ πασῶν τῶν αἱρέσεων, καὶ ἕτερα πάμπολλα. Εἶτα τελευταῖον μαρτυρήσας ἐστέφθη.
