Introductory Note to the Epistle of Barnabas
[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.
[1611] Or, as some read, “in the cross.”
[1613] Cod. Sin. has, “and He shall make him alive.”
[1614] Literally, “the sign.”
[1615] Comp. Num. xxi. 6-9; John iii. 14-18.
[1616] Deut. xxvii. 15. Cod. Sin. reads, “molten or graven.”
[1617] Instead of ἐν δοκῷ, “on a beam,” Cod. Sin. with other mss. has ἐνδόξως, “manifestly,” which is adopted by Hilgenfeld.
[1618] Cod. Sin. simply reads, “offer supplication.”
[1620] Comp. Col. i. 16.
[1621] Cod. Sin. has the imperative, “Put on him;” but it is connected as above.
[1622] Cod. Sin. closes the sentence with Jesus, and inserts, “Moses said therefore to Jesus.”
