Introductory Notice to Apocrypha of the New Testament.
[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.]
[2482] The mss. originally had days, and hours is substituted in another hand.
[2483] i.e., mounted His chariot.
[2484] According to a Jewish tradition, these were the four angels who stood round the throne of God.
[2485] Probably the reading should be ἕτερον, another, and not ἑταῖρον. Or it may mean: I will not receive a friendly body, i.e., one upon which I have no claims.
[2486] i.e., of which Adam was made.
[2487] Lit., earth.
[2488] ms. D ends here with: To whom be glory and strength to ages of ages. Amen. [D is the Milan manuscript which Tischendorf assigns to “About the eleventh century,” Apocalypses Apocryphæ, p. xi.—R.]
[2489] i.e., reveal.
[2490] Supplied by Tischendorf. Perhaps it should be days.
[2491] Perhaps this should be five—έ instead of ξ—which would make seventy days, as above.
