Introductory Notice to Apocrypha of the New Testament.
[2017] The text here is very corrupt.
[2018] Or, so men appeared on high.
[2019] This sentence also is very corrupt.
[2020] Another and more probably reading is, not one. [So B, a Parisms. of the fourteenth century.—R.]
[2021] This is a conjecture of Thilo’s. Themss. have Spania.
[2022] Instead of this last sentence, one of the mss. has: And the whole world was shaken by unspeakable miracles, and all the creation was like to be swallowed up by the lower regions; so that also the sanctuary of their temple was rent from top to bottom. And again there was thunder, and a mighty noise from heaven, so that all our land shook and trembled. Another: And there began to be earthquakes in the hour in which the nails were fixed in Jesus’ hands and feet, until evening.
[2023] One ms. adds: To the number of five hundred.
The Giving Up of Pontius Pilate.
[2024] Or, in the entrance.
[2025] αὐτοκράτωρ.
[2026] The text is very corrupt.
[2027] Lit., he made to be slaves in the dispersion of the Gentiles.
[2028] One of themss. adds: By the will and good pleasure of our Lord Jesus Christ, to whom be the glory of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Ghost, now and ever, and to ages of ages. Amen.
The Death of Pilate, Who Condemned Jesus.
[2029] Or, upon the sight of this.
[2030] This is the first appearance of the word Christian in these writings.
[2031] Losonium was the Roman name of Lausanne. For a discussion of this legend concerning Mont Pilate, near Lucerne, see Smith’s Dictionary of the Bible, under Pilate.
[2032] ms. C. has God-killing. [C is the designation given by Tischendorf to the ms. from which Birch made his edition of the text. It is in Paris; date a.d. 1315. Themss. which Tischendorf himself collated are designated A (in the Ambrosian library at Milan, of about the twelfth century), B (Paris, fifteenth century), D (Harleian codex, of the same century). Only a small part of the last ms. was used by Tischendorf; see his prolegomena, p. lxxxi.—R.]
[2033] Tobit i. 17, 18.
[2034] Perhaps the true reading is ναόν, and not νόμον: plundered the temple.
[2035] ms. B has: And they say that he was of the family of the sister, etc.
[2036] Tischendorf suggests ἀέκρυψας, hidden, for ἀπεκήρυξας.
[2037] Or, taker away.
