Introductory Notice to Apocrypha of the New Testament.
[1884] Comp.Acts v. 38.
[1888] Comp.Acts iii. 7.
[1891] See note 9, p. 419.
[1893] Matt. xxvii. 15-18, 21-23.
[1895] Or, slanderous.
[1896] The word here, χάρισμα, is used in the New Testament only of gifts and graces bestowed by God, and specially of the miraculous gifts imparted to the early Christians by the Holy Ghost. The word in Matt. ii. 11 is δῶρα.
[1897] Matt. ii. 14-16. [The writer seems to identify Herod the Great and Herod Antipas.—R.]
[1898] Luke xxiii. 6-11. [The only passage directly interpolated into Luke’s narrative is “as being derived of the race of the Jews.” A curious blunder of the compiler!—R.]
[1900] John xix. 2-3; Matt. xxvii. 29.
[1902] Θεοτόκος— a word used several times by Athanasius (died 373), e.g., in Orat. iii. Contra Arianos, c. 14 and 29. The refusal of Nestorius to give this epithet to Mary was the commencement, in 428, of the long struggle between the rival sees of Constantinople and Alexandria. See Haag, Histoire des Dogmes Chrétiens, i. 190. The paragraphs about the Θεοτόκος in this chapter are interpolations.
