Introductory Note to Clement of Alexandria
[3619] ποθεῖν suggested by Lowth instead of ποιεῖν.
[3620] [The peril of wealth and “business,” thus enforced in the martyr-age, is too little insisted upon in our day; if, indeed, it is not wholly overlooked.]
[3621] ἀτεχνῶς adopted instead of ἀτέχνως of the text, and transferred to the beginning of this sentence from the close of the preceding, where it appears in the text.
[3622] See Matt. xx. 21. Mark xi. 23; 1 Cor. xiii. 2, etc.
[3623] Or His, i.e., the Lord’s.
[3624] Referring to Matt. vi. 21.
[3626] [Again the sanctity of chaste marriage. The Fathers attach responsibility to the conscience for impure dreams. See supra, this page.]
[3627] ὰγίων, as in the best authorities: or ὰγγέλων, as in recent editions. [“Where two or three are gathered,” etc. This principle is insisted upon by the Fathers, as the great idea of public worship. And see the Trisgion, Bunsen’s Hippolytus, vol. ii. p. 63.]
[3631] i.e., The sentient soul, which he calls the irrational spirit, in contrast with the rational soul.
[3633] In allusion to Gal. vi. 8, where, however, the apostle speaks of sowing to the flesh.
[3634] [See, supra, cap. vii. p. 533.]
Chapter XIII.—Description of the Gnostic Continued.
[3637] Matt. vi. 12; Luke xi. 4.
