Library Pseudo-Clement Clementine Homilies
Homily 20, Chapter 11: Arrival of Appion and Annubion
And as we were going to take our meals, some one ran in and said: Appion Pleistonices has just come with Annubion from Antioch, and he is lodging with Simon.
And my father hearing this, and rejoicing, said to Peter: If you permit me, I shall go to salute Appion and Annubion, who have been my friends from childhood. For perchance I shall persuade Annubion to discuss genesis with Clement.
And Peter said: I permit you, and I praise you for fulfilling the duties of a friend. But now consider how in the providence of God there come together from all quarters considerations which contribute to your full assurance, rendering the harmony complete. But I say this because the arrival of Annubion happens advantageously for you.
And my father: In truth, I see that this is the case.
And saying this, he went to Simon.
