Haydock's commentary
A plant, &c. Ptolemeus Evergetes, the son of Philadelphus. (Challoner)
Three of Bernice's maids of honour (Haydock) covered her body, and pretended that she was only wounded, till her brother Evergetes came and seized almost all Asia, Callinicus not daring to give him battle. (St. Jerome, &c.; Vaillant. A. 79. Lagid.; Calmet)
He laid waste Syria. (Worthington)
