Τοῦτο δὲ τότε συνέβαινε καὶ παρὰ Ὀσροηνοῖς: οὐ μὴν ἀλλὰ καὶ Καππαδόκαις, οἷά γε ξυνωρίδα τινὰ θείαν καὶ λογιωτάτην λαχοῦσι, Βασίλειον τὸν Καισαρείας τῆς παῤ αὐτοῖς ἐπίσκοπον, καὶ Γρηγόριον τὸν Ναζιανζοῦ. Συρία δὲ καὶ τὰ πέριξ ἔθνη, καὶ μάλιστα ἡ τῶν Ἀντιοχέων πόλις, ἐν ἀταξίαις καὶ ταραχαῖς ἦσαν, πλειόνων μὲν ὄντων τῶν τὰ Ἀρείου φρονούντων, καὶ τὰς ἐκκλησίας ἐχόντων.
