Introductory Notice to the Homily Known as the Second Epistle of Clement.
[3868] [ἠθέλησε, “willed.”—R.] [Noteworthy. 2 Pet. iii. 9.]
[3869] Comp. Matt. xviii. 11. [Luke xix. 10.—R.]
[3870] Literally, “already perishing.” [Rev. iii. 2.]
Chap. iii.—the duty of confessing christ.
[3871] [Literally, “the Father of the truth.” The best editions have a period here.—R.]
[3872] Literally, “what is the knowledge which is towards Him.” [C, with Bryennios. Hilgenfeld reads τη̑ς ἀληθείας, “what is the knowledge of the truth,” instead of ἡ πρὸς αὐτόν, A, S, Lightfoot, and earlier editors.—R.]
[3873] [λέγει δὲ καὶ αυτός, “Yea, He Himself saith,” Lightfoot.—R.]
[3875] Comp. Matt. xxii. 37.

Chap. iv.—true confession of christ.
[3878] Matt. vii. 21, loosely quoted.
[3879] [Literally, “in.”—R.]
[3880] [A defect in A was thus supplied, but “these” is now accepted; so C, S.—R.]
[3881] Some read “God.” [“Him” is correct.—R.]
[3882] Or, “with Me.” [This is the more exact rendering of μετ' ἐμου̑.—R.]
[3883] The first part of this sentence is not found in Scripture; for the second, comp. Matt. vii. 23, Luke xiii. 27. [The first part is not even identified as a citation from an apocryphal book.—R.]
Chap. v.—this world should be despised.
[3885] No such conversation is recorded in Scripture. [Comp. note 13.—R.]
[3886] Or, “Let not the lambs fear.”
[3887] Matt. x. 28; Luke xii. 4, 5.
