See also Bateman, ‘General Introduction’ 12; in n. 75 he gives a survey of the sources Erasmus mentions in his prefaces to the Paraphrases: Ambrose (and Ambrosiaster), Theophylact, Bede and Nicholas of Lyre. In the ‘Praefatio in Annotationes’ Erasmus lists the authorities he used for the annotations (see Bateman, l.c.): Origen, Chrysostom, Cyril of Alexandria, Jerome, Ambrose, Hilary of Poitiers and Augustine, as well as Basil, Theophylact and Bede. For the importance Erasmus attaches to tradition in interpreting and allegorizing the Scriptures, see, for instance, Laurel Carrington, ‘The Boundaries Between Text and Reader: Erasmus’s Approach to Reading Scriptures’, Archiv für Reformationsgeschichte 88 (1997) 5–22 (5–6) (I owe this reference to Jean-François Cottier).
