Annotatio III §.III: SPECIALIOR ansa — Greek emphatic μεταβολή-terms for relative / mystic mutation, not substance
§.III SPECIALIOR handle: Greek emphatic change-terms (metabole, metamorphosis, metapoiesis, metastoicheiosis, metatyposis, metarrhythmismos, metaskeuasis) for a mutation relative to the thing signified and mystic for communicants — cited via our Author, Salmasius, Johnston.
Fathers meant moral and schetic (relative) change; later readers bred a substantial-mutation opinion from those words.
