Do we not, in the significant statement, that when they who had been sent returned to the house, 'they found the servant whole that had been sick[349],' recognize by implication the assurance that the Centurion, because he needed no such confirmation of his belief, went _not_ with them; but enjoyed the twofold blessedness of remaining with Christ, and of believing without seeing?
I think so.

Be this however as it may, [Symbol: Aleph]CEMUX besides about fifty cursives, append to St.Matt.
viii.

13 the clearly apocryphal statement, 'And the Centurion returning to his house in that same hour found the servant whole.' It does not improve the matter to find that Eusebius[350], besides the Harkleian and the Ethiopic versions, recognize the same appendix.

We are thankful, that no one yet has been found to advocate the adoption of this patent accretion to the inspired text.

Its origin is not far to seek.
