Chapter CIX.
Didymus,2539
2539 Born about 311, flourished about 315, died 396. | of Alexandria, becoming blind
while very young, and therefore ignorant of the rudiments of learning,
displayed such a miracle of intelligence as to learn perfectly
dialectics and even geometry, sciences which especially require sight.
He wrote many admirable works: Commentaries on all the Psalms,
Commentaries on the Gospels of Matthew and John, On the doctrines,
also two books Against the Arians, and one book On the Holy
Spirit, which I translated in Latin, eighteen volumes On
Isaiah, three books of commentaries On Hosea, addressed to
me, and five books On Zechariah, written at my request, also
commentaries On Job, and many other things, to give an account
of which would be a work of itself.2540
