Introductory Note to the Epistle of Barnabas
[1649] Cod. Sin. reads, “be prepared.” Hilgenfeld follows Cod. Sin. so far, and reads, “For it is written how the Father commanded Him who was to redeem us from darkness (αὐτῷ—λυτρωσάμενος) to prepare a holy people for Himself.”
[1651] Cod. Sin. has, “we know.”
[1652] Isa. xlix. 6. The text of Cod. Sin., and of the other mss., is here in great confusion: we have followed that given by Hefele.
Chapter XV.—The false and the true Sabbath.
[1654] Cod. Sin. reads “because,” but this is corrected to “moreover.”
[1657] Gen. ii. 2. The Hebrew text is here followed, the Septuagint reading “sixth” instead of “seventh.”
[1658] Cod. Sin. reads “signifies.”
[1659] Cod. Sin. adds, “to me.”
[1660] Cod. Sin. reads, “The day of the Lord shall be as a thousand years.”
[1661] Ps. xc. 4;2 Pet. iii. 8.
[1662] Cod. Sin. seems properly to omit “of the wicked man.”
[1663] Cod. Sin. places stars before moon.
[1664] Cod. Sin. reads “again,” but is corrected as above.
[1665] The meaning is, “If the Sabbaths of the Jews were the true Sabbath, we should have been deceived by God, who demands pure hands and a pure heart.”—Hefele.
[1666] Cod. Sin. has, “But if not.” Hilgenfeld’s text of this confused passage reads as follows: “Who then can sanctify the day which God has sanctified, except the man who is of a pure heart? We are deceived (or mistaken) in all things. Behold, therefore,” etc.
[1667] Cod. Sin. reads, “resting aright, we shall sanctify it, having been justified, and received the promise, iniquity no longer existing, but all things having been made new by the Lord.”
[1668] Cod. Sin. reads, “Shall we not then?”
