Philon or Philon the Pythagorean

10. The PYTHAGOREAN. Clemens Alexandrinus (Strom. i. p. 305), and Sozomenes (1.12), mention Philon ὁ Πυθαγόρειος. It is probable from their language that they both mean by the person so designated PHLON JUDAEUS. Jonsius (ibid. 3.100.4, p. 17) is strongly of opinion that Philon the elder, and this Philon mentioned by Clemens, are the same. Fabricius, who once held this opinion, was led to change his views (Fabric. Bibl. vol. i. p. 862), and tacitly assumes (vol. iv. p. 738) that Sozomenes indicated Philon Judaeus by this epithet.

William Smith. A Dictionary of Greek and Roman biography and mythology. London. John Murray: printed by Spottiswoode and Co., New-Street Square and Parliament Street. In the article on Soranus, we find: "at this present time (1848)" and this date seems to reflect the dates of works cited. 1873 - probably the printing date.
