Introductory Note to Clement of Alexandria
[3640] [See book ii. p. 358, also book vii. cap. 17, infra.]
[3642] These words are not found in Scripture. Solomon often warns against strange women, and there are the Lord’s words in Matt. v. 28.
Chapter XIV.—Description of the Gnostic Furnished by an Exposition of 1 Cor. vi. 1, Etc.
[3648] εὐπειθεῖς here substituted by Sylburgius for ἀπειθσῖς. May not the true reading be ἀπαθείς, as the topic is ἀπαθεια?
[3653] ἄνευ: or above, ἄνω.
[3656] [Ps. lxxiii. 1. The “Israelite indeed” is thus recognised as the wheat, although tares grow with it in the Militant Church. See cap xv., infra.]
[3657] Matt. v.; sic. τέλειοι, τελείως.
Chapter XV.—The Objection to Join the Church on Account of the Diversity of Heresies Answered.
[3658] [Matt. xiii. 28. But for our Lord’s foreshowing, the existence of so much evil in the Church would be the greatest stumbling-block of the faithful.]
[3659] The “eccleisastical canon” here recognised, marks the existence, at this period, of canon-law. See Bunsen, Hippol., book iii. p. 105.]
