The First Epistle of Clement to the Corinthians.
[4030] I. punctuates ἔλαβε δικαιοσύνην, (received righteousness, having taught).
[4031] Some think Rome, others Spain, and others even Britain, to be here referred to.
[4032] That is, under Tigellinus and Sabinus, in the last year of the Emperor Nero; but some think Helius and Polycletus referred to; and others, both here and in the preceding sentence, regard the words as denoting simply the witness borne by Peter and Paul to the truth of the gospel before the rulers of the earth.
Chapter VI.—Continuation. Several Other Martyrs.
[4033] Some suppose these to have been the names of two eminent female martyrs under Nero; others regard the clause as an interpolation.
[4034] Literally, “have reached to the stedfast course of faith.”
[4036] I. κατέσκαψεν (razed to the ground).
Chapter VII.—An Exhortation to Repentance.

[4039] I. ἐπήνεγκεν (conferred).
[4040] I. διέλθωμεν (traverse, trace).
[4041] Gen. vii; 1 Pet. iii. 20; 2 Pet. ii. 5.

[4045] Comp. Isa. i. 18.
[4046] These words are not found in Scripture, though they are quoted again by Clem. Alex. (Pædag. i. 10) as from Ezekiel.
Chapter IX.—Examples of the Saints.
[4048] Some read ματαιολογίαν, vain talk.
[4049] Gen. v. 24; Heb. xi. 5. Literally, “and his death was not found.”
