Introductory Note to Clement of Alexandria
[2060] Zephaniah.
[2061] ὀ Ἰωσίου, the reading of the text, is probably corrupt.
[2062] Josias.
[2063] ὀ καὶ Ἰωάχας, instead of which the text has καὶ Ἰωάχας.
[2064] The names, however, were not the same. The name of the latter was Jehoiachin. The former in Hebrew was written יהויקים, the latter יהויכין. By copyists they were often confounded, as here by Clement.
[2065] Lowth suplies Ἰεζεκιήλ, which is wanting in the text.
[2066] He was a contemporary of Jeremiah, but was killed before the time of Zedekiah by Joachin. Jer. xxvi. 20.
[2067] Habakkuk.
[2068] Juba.
[2069] Malachi, my angel or messenger. [Again, p. 331, infra.]
[2070] On account of killing the serpent, as is related in the apocryphal book, “Bel and the Dragon, or Serpent.”
[2071] Dan. ix. 24-27. [Speaker’s Commentary, Excursus, ad locum.]
[2072] The text has David.
[2073] Hiram or Huram was his name (1 Kings vii. 13, 40). Clement seems to have mistaken the words ὑπὲρ ὦν occuring in the epistle referred to for a proper name.
[2074] Such, according to Harpocration, was the title of this work. In the text it is called Τριγράμμοι. Suidas calls it Τριασμοί.
[2075] The passage seems incomplete. The bearing of the date of the building of Thasos on the determination of the age of Archilochus, may be, that it was built by Telesiclus his son.
[2076] Called so because he sojourned at Athens. His birthplace was Acarnania.
[2077] Another reading is Τιμόθεος; Sylburgius conjectures Τιμόξενος.
[2078] The text has Φυτώ, which Sylburgius conjectures has been changed from Πυθώ.
[2079] Plato’s Theages, xi. p. 128.
[2080] [Not to be lightly passed over. This whole paragraph is of value. Noah is the eighth preacher (2 Pet. ii. 5) of righteousness.]
