大方廣佛華嚴經隨疏演義鈔 17.82

17.82

疏「以祇園身子皆後時故」者，出後時所以。祇園在後者，佛成道後在王舍城，因長者為子娶妻，至於此城。聞佛發心，方造精舍，故知在後。身子等在後者，案《報恩經》初度五人，次度耶舍門徒五十人，次度優樓頻螺門徒五百，次度伽耶門人三百，次度那提門人二百，次度鶖子門徒一百，次度目連門徒一百，合有一千二百五十五人。《十二遊經》初成道第一年度五比丘，第二年化迦葉兄弟三人，第五年度身子、目連。五人者，一抲隣；二頞濕鞞，亦云馬星跋提；三摩訶男；四十力迦葉；五拘利太子。二是母親，三是父親。釋曰：既身子等在後，今第九會有此等五百及祇園，則在後矣。

The commentary states: 'Because the Jeta Grove and Śāriputra both belong to a later time.' This gives the reason for the 'later time'. That the Jeta Grove was later: after the Buddha attained the Way, he was in Rājagṛha, and because an elder went to that city to seek a wife for his son, he heard the Buddha, generated the aspiration, and only then constructed the vihāra; hence we know it was later. That Śāriputra and the others were later: according to the Sūtra on Repaying Kindness, he first delivered five men; next he delivered Yaśas and fifty disciples; next he delivered Uruvilvā[-kāśyapa] and five hundred disciples; next he delivered Gayā[-kāśyapa] and three hundred disciples; next he delivered Nadī[-kāśyapa] and two hundred disciples; next he delivered Śāriputra and one hundred disciples; next he delivered Maudgalyāyana and one hundred disciples—amounting in total to 1,255 people. The Twelve Years' Wandering Sūtra states: in the first year after attaining the Way, he delivered the five bhikṣus; in the second year, he transformed the three Kāśyapa brothers; in the fifth year, he delivered Śāriputra and Maudgalyāyana. The five men were: first, Kauṇḍinya; second, Aśvajit, also called Vāṣpa-Bhaddiya; third, Mahānāma; fourth, Daśabala-Kāśyapa; fifth, Prince Kolita. Two were the mother's relatives, and three were the father's relatives. Explanation: Since Śāriputra and the others were later, now that the ninth assembly includes these five hundred and the Jeta Grove, it must be later.
