[1] Many church fathers traveled and lived in several parts of the
Mediterranean, therefore the regional classification of many of them is
problematical. This factor significantly
qualifies the idea of “local” texts.
[2] The application of the Alands’ system to the church
fathers my own and is provisional. Although
the antiquity of some Church Fathers would suggest placing their testimony in
category II, the fact that there are special challenges in verifying the
accuracy of the received form of the biblical quotations found in the Fathers
has led to assigning them all to category III.
