Translation: Question: how [is it that] Paul places the apostles first? [He places them] first by an analogy of contests and due to their glory from God, but [they are] last because they arrive at the ends of the ages. Consequently [it follows] that they are both first and last; and [he also does this] in order that in this [matter] they mimic the teacher, who says "I am the first and the last".[1]
