Note 76 — II.

Reading edition

Topic. II. i. p. 109, a. 27: διορίσασθαι δὲ δεῖ καὶ τὰς ἁμαρτίας τὰς ἐν τοῖς προβλήμασιν, ὅτι εἰσὶ διτταί, ἢ τῷ ψεύδεσθαι, ἢ τῷ παραβαίνειν τὴν κειμένην λέξιν.

Alexander remarks (Schol. p. 264, b. 23, Br.) that πρόβλημα here means, not the interrogation, but τὸ ὡρισμένον ἤδη καὶ κείμενον — οὗ προΐσταταί τις, ὅν ὁ διαλεκτικὸς ἐλέγχειν ἐπιχειρεῖ.
