Introductory Notice to Apocrypha of the New Testament.
[2461] Perhaps for ἴσον we should read εἴσω, within. Another reading is: for the days of his life have been fulfilled, and he will live from today three days, and he will die.
[2462] C has: I take counsel with thee. [C is a Vienna manuscript of the twelfth century; see p. 358, and Tischendorf, Apocalypses Apocryphæ, pp. xi., xii.—R.]
[2463] It seems to be settled that the zizania of the Greeks, the zawân of the Arabs, was darnel; but, from the associations connected with the word, it is better to keep the common translation.
[2464] C has, root and origin.
[2465] Lit, naked.
[2466] i.e., of the garden.
[2467] I have read ταχυνθήσει for παχυνθήσει, thou shalt grow fat.
[2468] The text has ματαίοις, vain; the true reading is probably καμάτοις or μόχθοις.
[2469] Inserted fromms. C.
[2470] ms. B. inserts: And Eve was twelve years old when the demon deceived her, and gave her evil desires. For night and day he ceased not to bear hatred against them, because he himself was formerly in paradise; and therefore he supplanted them, because he could not bear to see them in paradise. [B is a Viennams. of the thirteenth or fourteenth century; see Tischendorf, Apocal. Apocr., p. xi.—R.]
[2471] This is after the version of the LXX., and it is also the interpretation of Gesenius of the Hebrew shûph, Gen. iii. 15.
[2472] Or, incense.
[2473] This is the “sweet cane” of Isa. xliii. 24; Jer. vi. 20. See also Exod. 30.23; Song of Sol. 4.14; Ezek. 27.19.
[2474] Or, and we were upon the earth.
[2475] Perhaps τάφον, tomb, would be better than τόπον.
[2476] Or, anoint.
[2477] Or, all sin.
[2478] The text has πονήσαντα, a misprint for ποιήσαντα.
[2479] Lit., of a womb.
[2480] The last clause is not in C.
[2481] ms. A here ends thus: the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit, now and ever, and to ages of ages. Amen. [A is the Venice ms. “of about the thirteenth century;” Tischendorf, Apocal. Apocr., p. xi.—R.]
