The Epistles of Clement
Show All Footnotes & Jump to 4382
The First Epistle of Clement to the Corinthians.
[4372] Literally, “if he be found corrupting.”
[4373] Baptism is probably meant.
Chapter VIII.—The Necessity of Repentance While We are on Earth.
[4375] Comp. Luke xvi. 10-12.
[4376] ms. has “we,” which is corrected by all editors as above. I. ἀπολάβητε.
[4377] Some have thought this a quotation from an unknown apocryphal book, but it seems rather an explanation of the preceding words.
Chapter IX.—We Shall Be Judged in the Flesh.
[4378] Literally, “looked up.”
[4379] The ms. has εἷς, “one,” which Wake follows, but it seems clearly a mistake for ὡς.
[4380] I. λόγος (word).
Chapter X.—Vice is to Be Forsaken, and Virtue Followed.
[4382] Literally, “rather.”
[4383] Literally, “malice, as it were, the precursor of our sins.” Some deem the text corrupt.
[4384] Literally, according to the ms., “it is not possible that a man should find it who are”—the passage being evidently corrupt.
[4385] I. ἀνάπαυσιν (rest).
Chapter XI.—We Ought to Serve God, Trusting in His Promises.
[4386] I. πάλαι (long ago).
[4387] The same words occur in Clement’s first epistle, chap. xxiii.
Chapter XII.—We are Constantly to Look for the Kingdom of God.
[4389] These words are quoted (Clem. Alex., Strom., iii. 9, 1.) from the Gospel according to the Egyptians, no longer extant.
[4390] Here the piece formerly broke off. From this point to the end the text of Gebhardt, Harnack, Zahn has been followed.
[4391] Comp. 1 Cor. vii. 29.
Chapter XIII.—God’s Name Not to Be Blasphemed.
