Annotation CCXCV

”That he might show in the ages to come.” — Ephesians 2:7

Whether the demons are ever to be saved.

Jerome is taxed by Rufinus, because to this passage he appends the exposition of Origen — saying that the demons, in the future age, shall receive benefits from the saints, and shall be under their care — the name of the author being passed over, and without any disapproval of the error. It has been answered above, [in] Annotation 290 of this book.
