Greek text · Dindorf 4:257

Ἐν δὲ ταῖς Ὑποτυπώσεσι, ξυνελόντα εἰπεῖν, πάσης τῆς ἐνδιαθήκου γραφῆς ἐπιτετμημένας πεποίηται διηγήσεις, μηδὲ τὰς ἀντιλεγομένας παρελθὼν, τὴν Ἰούδα λέγω καὶ τὰς λοιπὰς καθολικὰς ἐπιστολὰς, τήν τε Βαρνάβα καὶ τὴν Πέτρου λεγομένην ἀποκάλυψιν.

English · Claude translation

In the Outlines, to speak briefly, he has given concise accounts of the whole of canonical Scripture, not passing over even the disputed writings — I mean Jude and the other catholic letters, and Barnabas, and the so-called Apocalypse of Peter.
