ὡς καὶ ὁ παρὰ τοῖς Σύροις σοφὸς Ἐφραΐμ ἐμαρτύρησε τούτῳ τῷ λόγῳ ἐν ταῖς αὐτῦ ἐξηγήσεσι λέγων ὅτι »οὕτως γὰρ ᾠκονομήθη ἡ τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ παρουσία, ἡ κατὰ σάρκα γέννησις εἴτ᾿ οὖν τελεία ἐνανθρώπησις, ὃ καλεῖται Ἐπιφάνεια, ἀπὸ τῆς ἀρχῆς τῆς τοῦ φωτὸς αὐξήσεως ἐπὶ δέκα τριῶν ἡμερῶν διαστήματι· ἐχρὴν γὰρ καὶ τοῦτο τύπον γενέσθαι ἀριθμοῦ τοῦ αὐτοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ καὶ τῶν αὐτοῦ δώδεκα μεθητῶν, ὃς <τὸν> τῶν δεκατριῶν ἡμερῶν τῆς τοῦ φωτὸς αὐηήσεως ἐπλήρου ἀριθμόν«.
