二、釋長者子。《法華疏》中具十種德名長者:一姓貴、二位高、三大富、四威猛、五智深、六年耆、七行淨、八禮備、九上歎、十下歸。「子者」下,亦如王子公子也。故經云「持水大長者家中後生一子,名曰流水。」
Second, explaining the elder's son. In the Commentary on the Lotus [Sūtra], possessing ten kinds of virtues is called an elder: first, noble clan; second, high status; third, great wealth; fourth, formidable power; fifth, profound wisdom; sixth, advanced age; seventh, pure conduct; eighth, complete propriety; ninth, praised by superiors; tenth, relied upon by subordinates. From "A son..." downward, it is also like a prince or a young nobleman. Therefore the sūtra says: "Later, in the household of the great elder Jaladhara, a son was born, named Jalavāhana."
