Expositio Fidei - Caspari - Isaac the Jew per Ayres et al.

Brooke
Sicut euangelista testatur quia scriptum est, ‘Tres sunt qui dicunt testimonium in caelo pater uerbum et spiritus’: et haec tria unum sunt in Christo Iesu. Non tamen dixit ‘Unus est in Christo Iesu."

WGIG
Isaac the Jew (circa 366-378 AD)
sicut evangelista testatur, quia scriptum est: ”Tres sunt, qui dicunt testimonium in caelo : pater, verbum et spiritus, et haec tria unum sunt in Christo Iesu. Non tamen dixit:” Unus est in Christo Iesu

RGA - (gives a confused note including Kunstle circularity)
48 Expositio fidei chatolice, in Caspari, 1883, XIV, 305: “[…] pater est ingenitus, filius uero sine initio genitus a patre est, spiritus autem sanctus processet [procedit Caspari] a patre et accipit de filio
sicut euangelista testatur, quia scriptum est: Tres sunt qui dicunt testimonium in cælo: pater, uerbum et spiritus, et hæc tria unum sunt in Christo Iesu. Non tamen dixit: unus est in Christo Iesu.”

The quote marks are uneven.

Reply to Damasus - Ad Damasum papam before AD 384 - Priscillian or Panchristian author

RGA citing Kunstle
"The Father is God, the Son is God, and the Holy Spirit is God; These are one in Christ Jesus"
("Pater Deus, Filius Deus, et Spiritus sanctus Deus; haec unum sunt in Christo Iesu. Tres itaque formae, sed una potestas."

Codex Sanblasiana (Cologne 213)
filius deus et spiritus sanctus deus et tres unum sunt in iesu christo
f141r.line 012 tres itaque formae

Expositio fidei catholicae: Clemens Trinitas (4th or 5th century)
https://www.purebibleforum.com/index.php?threads/clemens-trinitas.2148/

Therefore, Father and Son and Holy Spirit, and "the three are one" ...

They are one, in such a way that we must not doubt that they are also three; there are three, in such a way that we must say that they cannot be separated from each other.

Clemens Trinitas, una divinitas ....
Itaque Pater et Filius et Spiritus Sanctus, et ”tres unum sunt” ....
Qui ita unum sunt, ut tres quoque non dubitemus; ita tres sunt, ut separai a se non posse fateamur.

(Formula”Clemens Trinitas", 4-5th century; Denzinger, Enchiridion Symbolorum definitionum et declarationum de rebus fidei et morum, 1908, p. 14) ”Fides catholica Sancti Augustini episcopi”)

RGA
Clemens Trinitas est una divinitas, also known as the “creed of St Augustine” (Southern France, fifth/sixth century; text given in Denzinger, 2001, 49-50, § 73-74). Although Clemens Trinitas does not contain the comma in its classical form, it contains the phrase tres unum sunt (here with the status of a symbolum) with an enumeration of the persons of the Trinity, creating an oddly ungrammatical sentence ( Itaque Pater et Filius et Spiritus Sanctus, et tres unum sunt).

check if Bibliothèque nationale de France. Département des Manuscrits. Latin 2341 is exactly Clemens Trinitas

Is RGA wrong about "contains the phrase tres unum sunt" ?
it has tres sunt and unum sunt - so it is close

An Exposition of the Catholic and Apostolic Faith (650-799 AD)
- move to c. AD 500, maybe even earlier noticing the Arian component and the early ms.
Not in RGA, no mention of Quesnel

WOGIG
The first of the four Formulae of Faith contained in this Quesnel collection (the four are numbered XXXVII, XXXVIII, XXXIX, XL), ...
... one manuscript is of the sixth century.
An Exposition of the Catholic and Apostolic Faith (650-799 AD)
An Exposition of the Catholic and Apostolic Faith against the Arian Heresy

The Father is God, the Son God, the Holy Ghost God, and the three are one (unum) in Christ Jesus. There are therefore three Persons, ...

Pater Deus, Filius Deus, Spiritus sanctus Deus, et tres unum sunt in Christo Iesu. Tres itaque personae,
(Appendix ad opera S. Leonis Magni. CAPITULUM XXXVII.; Migne Latina, PL 56.582)

=====================================================


Alcuin, De fide sanctæ et individuæ trinitatis

RGA
Alcuin, De fide sanctæ et individuæ trinitatis I.11, PL 101:19-20
Et hæc tria unum, et vere unum; et hoc unum tres, sed non tres Patres, nec tres Filii, nec
tres Spiritus sancti; sed tres personæ, unus Pater, unus Filius, unus Spiritus sanctus. Et hi tres, id est, Pater, et Filius, et Spiritus sanctus, unum sunt in natura, omnipotentia, et æternitate

See also the Invocatio ad ss. trinitatem, et fidei symbolum ejusdem constituting book III of the
same treatise, PL 101:57: “Et hæc tria unus Deus, et unus Deus hæc tria; idem Deus et Dominus [ms Sanct-Germ.: Et hæc tria unus Deus et unus Dominus; hæc tria idem Deus et Dominus] vera et sempiterna Trinitas in personis, vera et sempiterna unitas in substantia, quia una est substantia Pater, et Filius, et Spiritus sanctus.

====================================================

Symboli Apostolici et Athanasii Enarratio (circa AD 350-400)
Pseudo-Athanasian enarratio in symbolum apostolorum (CPL 1744a)

”There are three,” he says,”who bear witness in heaven, Father, Word and Spirit, and these three are one.”

cujus suscipienti te Matris Vicarius affectus a Dominio diligatur; qui ad monumentum Domini etiam Petrum festinus antevenit.”Tres sunt,” inquit, ”qui testimonium perhibent in caelo, Pater, Verbum, & Spiritus, & ii tres unum sunt. ”Nonne post haec nobis jujusmodi fidem & mors est perdere, & sallus est custodisse.

Correct ii ?


(Pseudo-Athanasius & Bianchini, 1744, p. 38-40. Translation by Rosalinda MacLahlahn via correspondence dated 18 September 2019)

RGA
NOT FOUND (searched for qui testimonium perhibent in and then look for inquit and caelo)

Explanatio Fidei ad Cyrillum (circa AD 400-425) Marcus Celedensis

● Letter 17. So we have one Father and one Son of his the true God, and one Holy Spirit, the true God, and these three are one, one divinity and power and kingdom.
(Marcus Celedensis, Epistola XVII. Marcus' exposition of the faith to Cyril III, Migne Latina, PL 30, 181C-D; CPL 633, nr. 1746.)

Latin: Nobis igitur unus Pater, et unus Filius eius verus Deus, et unus Spiritus sanctus verus Deus: et hi tres unum sunt, una divinitas, et potentia, et regnum.
(Marcus Celedensis, Epistola XVII. Seu Expositione Fidei ad Cyrillum III, apud Hieronymum, Migne Latina, PL 30, 181C-D; CPL 633, Nr. 1746.)

NOT in RGA
Some similarity to Clemens Trinitas
