Introductory Note to Clement of Alexandria
[2208] Ecclus. xv. 10.
[2209] Laertius, in opposition to the general account, ascribes the celebrated αὐτὸς εφα to Pythagoras Zacynthus. Suidas, who with the most ascribes it to the Samian Pythagoras, says that it meant “God has said,” as he professed to have received his doctrines from God.
[2210] This famous line of Epicharmus the comic poet is quoted by Tertullian (de Anima), by Plutarch, by Jamblichus, and Porphyry.
[2211] Ecclus. vi. 33.
Chapter VI.—The Excellence and Utility of Faith.
[2213] Rom. x. 17, 14, 15.
[2214] Loadstone. [Philosophy of the second centure. See note in Migne.]
[2215] 1 Cor. i. 9, x. 13.
[2217] Not in Script.
[2218] Where?
[2219] Rom. i. 17, etc.
[2221] [Clement accepts the Epistle of Barnabus as an apostolic writing. For this quotation, see vol. i. p. 137, this series.]
[2222] The man of perfect knowledge.
Chapter VII.—The Utility of Fear. Objections Answered.
[2223] Instead of ἔκκλισις, it has been proposed to read ἔκλυσις, a term applied by the Stoics to fear; but we have ἔκκλισις immediately after.
[2224] According to the correction and translation of Lowth, who reads τῶν οὔτῶ ἐπιδεχομένων instead of τὸν οὔτως, etc., of the text.
[2227] Prov. i. 17, 18, “Surely in vain the net is spread in the sight of any bird, and they lay wait for their own blood.”
