- English Wikipedia, viewed June 14, 2024(Pseudo-Macarius; Pseudo-Makarios; conventional designation for the anonymous author or authors of works falsely attributed to Macarius of Egypt; it is evident from statements in the works that the author was from Upper Mesopotamia, where the Roman Empire bordered the Persian Empire; it is clear from the manuscript tradition that these works were written before the year 534)

Volume 3, The golden age of Greek Patristic literature, 1960:page 161, etc. (under Macarius the Egyptian: works passed down under his name are spurious, although attributed to him already in a Syriac manuscript dated 534 A.D.; some scholars believe the works can be attributed to a certain Symeon, native of Mesopotamia; Pseudo-Macarius used in remainder of article in discussing author of works, which include the Spiritual homilies, several letters, and seven opuscula or treatises)

Tome 1, 1980:title page (Pseudo-Macaire) page 13, etc. (designation used for the author of a corpus of writings consisting of a few letters and a large number of homilies; the author was active between 380 and 430 in Asia Minor or Syria-Mesopotamia but known only from the works; he was perhaps named Symeon and perhaps is to be identified with Symeon of Mesopotamia, known otherwise as a leader of the Messalian sect) page 21 (the letter called Ad filios is not part of the corpus and may be a genuine work of Macarius the Egyptian) page 32 (corpus generally passed down under name of Macarius the Egyptian, although one collection in Arabic and Coptic is attributed to a certain Symeon)
