A Dictionary of Greek and Roman biography and mythology (ed. William Smith), Eutha'lius (search)
Eutha'lius （*Eu)qa/lios), bishop of Sulce, lived, according to some, at the time of the great Athanasius; and Cave, in the London edition of his Hist. Lit., places him in A. D. 398, whereas, in the Basle edition (i. p. 466), he places him about A. D. 458. The latter supposition agrees with a statement of Euthalius himself, in his Introduction to the Life of St. Paul. Works Editions of the letters of Saint Paul When Euthalius was yet a young man, he divided the Epistles of St. Paul into chapters and verses; and after his elevation to the bishopric, he did the same with the Acts of the Apostles and the Catholic Epistles. The Epistles of St. Paul, however, had been divided in that manner before him, about A. D. 396; but Euthalius added the argumenta of the chapters, indexes, and the passages of Scripture to which allusions are made in the Epistles. This work he afterwards sent to Athanasius the younger, who was bishop of Alexandria in A. D. 490. Editions A portion of it was firs

stle of Pope Innocentius I. (n. xvii. ed. Coustant). where he is numbered among the dignitaries of Macedonia, that he was alive in 414. Considerable confusion has been occasioned by the Mistake of Baronius, who supposed that Nicetas the Dacian, mentioned in the Roman Martyrology under 7th January, was a different person the Nicaeas Romatianae civitatis episcopus of Gennadius, and that the latter was the same with the Alcaeas of Aquileia, to whom a letter was addressed by Leo the Great in A. D. 458,--an hypothesis which forced him to prove that Aquileia bore the name of Civitas Romaliana. But the researches of Holstein, Quesnel and Tillemont have set the question at rest. Gennadins informs us that Nicetas composed in a plain but elegant style instructions for those who were preparing for baptism, in six books, of which he gives the arguments, and also Ad Lapsam Virginem Libellus. Of these, the former is certainly lost, but we find among the works of St. Jerome (vol. xi. p. 178, ed.
