Gennadius Scholarius Scholarios- (1400-1473)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gennadius_Scholarius
Επιτομή κατά Εθνικων 4. XV ( p. 263 in the printed edition)
The word Επιτομη is the Greek ancestor of the English word " epitome", and means "An abridgment ( of a book) ", "a shortened version of something", " a summary", " a synopsis". -- The title κατά Εθνικών means "Against the Gentiles". So the whole phrase unequivocally means
"An abridgment (of the book) Against the Gentiles"!
Does refer to 1 John 5 :7 as follows :
"Τρεις εισιν οι μαρτυρουντες εν τωι ουρανωι, ο Πατήρ, ο Λόγος και το Πνεύμα το άγιον"
There are three that bear witness in heaven, the Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit
and that he utilizes it as a genuine and authentic verse of the New Testament! Georgios Gennadios Scholarios was the first Orthodox Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople immediately after its capture by the Ottoman Turks on May 29th in the year 1453! He was renowned for his profound theological learning!
The context to which Georgios Gennahios Scholarios' reference to (and citation of) "the heavenly witnesses" verse is the following :
Πατρι δε και Υιωι συναριθμουσι και το Πνευμα το άγιον τα της θείας Γραφης ρητά ως... και εν τηι Ιωάννου πρώτηι :
"Τρεις εισιν οι μαρτυρουντες εν τωι ουρανωι, ο Πατηρ, ο Λόγος και το Πνευμα το άγιον."
( Επιτομη κατά Εθνικών 4. XV, page 263 in the printed edition)

He has a work that Wikipedia gives the English title
A treatise, About our God, one in three, against Atheists and Polytheists
Patrologia Graeca, CLX, 667 sqq

here we see that Scholarios was not published until after Erasmus passed
