[41] Keim, _Celsus' Wahres Wort_, p. 233, suggests that Lucian was not quite clear as to the differences between Judaism and Christianity.
The reference to forbidden meat lends colour to this.
[42] _De morte Peregrini_, 11, 16; cf. the _Pa.s.sio Perpetuae_, 3 and 16, on attention to Christians in prison. Tertullian, _de Jejunio_, 12, gives an extraordinary account of what might be done for a Christian in prison, though the case of Pristinus, which he quotes, must have been unusual, if we are to take all he says as literally true.
[43] Cf. Tertullian, _ad Martyras_, 4, _Peregrinus qui non olim se rogo immisit_. Athenagoras, _Presb._ 26, _Proteos, touton d' ouk agnoeite rhipsanta heautn eis t pur per ten Olympian_.

[51] C.I.G. iv, 955. Translation of Mary Hamilton, in her _Incubation_, p. 41 (1906).
[52] I agree with the view of Schubart quoted by J. G. Frazer on the pa.s.sage (Pausan. ii, 27, 6) that this man was neither the Emperor Antoninus Pius nor Marcus. It is perhaps superfluous to call attention to the value of Dr Frazer's commentary, here and elsewhere.
[53] _Sacred Speech_, ii, -- 47, p 301, _litras eikosi ka ekaton_.
[54] _Sacred Speech_, ii, -- 33, p. 298. For Aristides see Hamilton, _Incubation_, pt. i. ch. 3, and Dill, _Roman Society from Nero to Marcus Aurelius_, bk. iv. ch. 1. See also Richard Caton, M.D., _The Temples and Ritual of Asklepios_ (1900).
