Iamblichus on the mysteries of the Egyptians, Chaldeans, and Assyrians

Note 133 — SECTION VIII.

Thomas Taylor translation

In the original, πρωτος και του πρωτου θεου και βασιλεως, which Gale translates, prior etiam primo Deo, et rege [sole]. But the addition of sole in his translation is obviously most unappropriate and false: for Iamblichus is evidently speaking of a deity much superior to the sun.
