Introductory Note to the Epistle of Barnabas
[1490] Cod. Sin. inserts “and.”
[1491] These are inaccurate and confused quotations from Ps. xxii. 16, 20, and Ps. 119:120.
Chapter VI.—The sufferings of Christ, and the new covenant, were announced by the prophets.
[1495] The Latin omits “since,” but it is found in all the Greek mss.
[1496] Cod. Sin. has “believe.” Isa. viii. 14, Isa. xxviii. 16.
[1500] Comp. 1 Cor. iv. 13. The meaning is, “My love to you is so great, that I am ready to be or to do all things for you.”
[1501] Ps. xxii. 17, Ps. 118:12.
[1504] Wisdom ii. 12. This apocryphal book is thus quoted as Scripture, and intertwined with it.
[1505] Cod. Sin. reads, “What says the other prophet Moses unto them?”
[1506] Ex. xxxiii. 1; Lev. xx. 24.
[1507] The original word is “Gnosis,” the knowledge peculiar to advanced Christians, by which they understand the mysteries of Scripture.
[1508] Not found in Scripture. Comp. Isa. xl. 13;Prov. i. 6. Hilgenfeld, however, changes the usual punctuation, which places a colon after prophet, and reads, “For the prophet speaketh the parable of the Lord. Who shall understand,” etc.
[1509] The Greek is here very elliptical and obscure: “His Spirit” is inserted above, from the Latin.
