法華文句記 (Chin Fa-hua-wen-chy-chi; Jpn Hokke-mongu-ki )
A ten-volume commentary by Miao-lo (711-782) on The Words and Phrases of the Lotus Sutra, one of T'ient'ai's three major works. It clarifies the meaning of T'ient'ai's teachings on the whole text of the Lotus Sutra and refutes interpretations of the sutra advanced by the Flower Garland (Chin Hua-yen), Three Treatises (Sanlun), and Dharma Characteristics (Fa-hsiang) schools. Miao-lo also addresses the controversy over the position of the "Entrustment" chapter in the Lotus Sutra, that is, whether it comes after the "Supernatural Powers" (twenty-first) chapter or at the end of the sutra. He upholds Kumarajiva's view that placed the "Entrustment" chapter after the "Supernatural Powers" chapter, refuting the opposing view set forth by Tz'u-en and Hsüan-tsang.
