Introductory Note to Clement of Alexandria
[3758] “Quibus significat Dominus remissius esse,” the reading here, defies translation and emendation. We suppose a hiatus here, and change “remissius” into “remissum” to get the above sense. The statement cannot apply to Sodom and Gomorrha.
[3759] Similiter iisdem.
[3761] Dominus—Dominium, referring to the clause “despise dominion.” [Jude 8.]
[3766] Spiritibus.
[3768] The reading is “agnosceret.” To yield any sense it myst have been “agnoscatur” or “agnosceretur.”
[3771] “Discernentes a carnibus,”—a sentence which has got either displaced or corrupted, or both.
[3772] Animales.
[3777] By a slight change of punctuation, and by substituting “maculata” for “macula,” we get the sense as above. Animæ videlicet tunica macula est” is the reading of the text.
