The First Epistle of Clement to the Corinthians
[40] Comp. Isa. i. 18.
[41] 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.
[43] Some read ματαιολογίαν, “vain talk.”
[44] Gen. v. 24; Heb. xi. 5. Literally, “and his death was not found.”
Chapter X.—Continuation of the above.
[45] Isa. xli. 8; 2 Chron. xx. 7;Judith viii. 19; Jas. ii. 23.
[48] Gen. xv. 5, 6; Rom. iv. 3.
[49] Gen. xxi. 22; Heb. xi. 17.
Chapter XI.—Continuation. Lot.
[50] Gen. xix.; comp. 2 Pet. ii. 6-9.
[51] So Joseph., Antiq., i. 11, 4; Irenæus, Adv. Hær., iv. 31.
[52] Literally, “become a judgment and sign.”
Chapter XII.—The rewards of faith and hospitality. Rahab.
[54] Others of the Fathers adopt the same allegorical interpretation, e.g., Justin Mar., Dial. c. Tryph., n. 111; Irenæus, Adv. Hær., iv. 20. [The whole matter of symbolism under the law must be more thoroughly studied if we would account for such strong language as is here applied to a poetical or rhetorical figure.]
Chapter XIII.—An exhortation to humility.
[55] Jer. ix. 23, 24;1 Cor. i. 31; 2 Cor. x. 17.
[56] Comp.Matt. vi. 12-15, Matt. vii. 2; Luke vi. 36-38.
Chapter XIV.—We should obey God rather than the authors of sedition.
[59] Ps. xxxvii. 35-37. “Remnant” probably refers either to the memory or posterity of the righteous.
Chapter XV.—We must adhere to those who cultivate peace, not to those who merely pretend to do so.
