Introductory Note to the Epistle of Barnabas
[1590] Cod. Sin. inserts again, “rightly.”
Chapter XI.—Baptism and the cross prefigured in the Old Testament.
[1591] Literally, “should build.”
[1592] Cod. Sin. has, “confine still more,” corrected to “tremble still more.”
[1593] Cod. Sin. has, “have dug a pit of death.” See Jer. ii. 12, 13.
[1594] Comp.Isa. xvi. 1, 2.
[1595] Literally, “dark.” Cod. Sin. has, “of darkness.”
[1597] Isa. xxxiii. 16. Cod. Sin. has, “thou shalt dwell.”
[1598] Cod. Sin. entirely omits the question given above, and joins “the water is sure” to the former sentence.
[1601] Cod. Sin. has, “what meaneth?”
[1604] Omitted in Cod. Sin.
Chapter XII.—The cross of Christ frequently announced in the Old Testament.
[1605] Cod. Sin. refers this to God, and not to the prophet.
[1606] From some unknown apocryphal book. Hilgenfeld compares Hab. ii. 11.
[1607] Cod. Sin. reads, “He speaks to Moses.”
[1608] Cod. Sin. omits “and.”
[1609] Cod. Sin. reads πυγμῆς, which must here be translated “heap” or “mass.” According to Hilgenfeld, however, πυγμή is here equivalent to πυγμαχία, “a fight.” The meaning would then be, that “Moses piled weapon upon weapon in the midst of the battle,” instead of “hill” (πήγης), as above.
[1610] Thus standing in the form of a cross.
