Fortunately we get some further light on the Prologue from a somewhat unexpected quarter. [...] In 1913 M. F. Nau published a French translation of the collection of documents which is known as the Octateuch of Clement, and which is preserved in a Syriac version. [...] The purpose of this Note is to draw attention to a passage in the Octateuth the peculiar interest of which escaped the notice of M. Nau when making his translation. [...] Now at the beginning of his fifth book of Clement the maker of the Octateuch has been guilty of the same sort of inconsistency, but with a difference: he gives us neither exactly what the 'Constitutor' made of the Prologue of Hipolytus nor exactly what Hippolytus wrote, but a combination of the two - he interpolates the Ap. Const. text by recourse to Hippolytus himself. M. Nau's translation of the Octateuch was made from the text of Cod. syr. 148 of the Borgian collection." (pp. 356-357)
