Introductory Note to the Epistle of Barnabas
[1513] Cod. Sin. inserts, “the Lord says.”
[1514] Cod. Sin. has “I make.”
[1515] Not in Scripture, but comp.Matt. xx. 16, and 2 Cor. v. 17.
[1517] Ezek. xi. 19, Ezek. xxxvi. 26.
[1518] Cod. Sin. inserts “Himself;” comp. John i. 14.
[1519] Comp. Eph. ii. 21.
[1520] Comp. Ps. xlii. 2.
[1521] Cod. Sin. omits “He says.”
[1522] Cod. Sin. omits “in the midst.”
[1523] Ps. xxii. 23; Heb. ii. 12.
[1524] Cod. Sin. has “But we said above.”
[1526] These are specimens of the “Gnosis,” or faculty of bringing out the hidden spiritual meaning of Scripture referred to before. Many more such interpretations follow.
Chapter VII.—Fasting, and the goat sent away, were types of Christ.
[1527] Cod. Sin. reads “temple,” which is adopted by Hilgenfeld.
[1528] Not to be found in Scripture, as is the case also with what follows. Hefele remarks, that “certain false traditions respecting the Jewish rites seem to have prevailed among the Christians of the second century, of which Barnabas here adopts some, as do Justin (Dial. c. Try. 40) and Tertullian (adv. Jud. 14; adv. Marc. iii. 7).”
[1529] Cod. Sin. has “by them.”
[1530] Cod. Sin. reads, “what commanded He?”
[1531] Cod. Sin. reads, “one as a burnt-offering, and one for sins.”
[1532] Cod. Sin. reads, “type of God,” but it has been corrected to “Jesus.”
[1533] In Cod. Sin. we find “Rachel.” The orthography is doubtful, but there is little question that a kind of bramble-bush is intended.
