Introductory Note to The Pastor of Hermas
[312] Num. xvii. 8. [Willows are chosen, perhaps, with reference to Isa. xliv. 4; but Ezekiel’s willow supplies the thought here (Ezek. xvii. 5, 6).]
[313] 2 Esdras ii. 43.
[314] [Eph. i. 13, iv. 30.]
[315] [Rev. xix. 8.]
[316] [Rev. viii. 3; Num. xvii. 7.]
[318] [Rom. xi. 16.]
[320] “And by this law the Son of God was preached to all the ends of the earth.”—Vat. [Hermas again introduces here the name which he made his base in Vision ii. 2.]
[321] [Dan. x. 21, xii 1; Rev. xii. 7. It is not necessary to accept this statement as doctrine, but the idea may be traced to these texts.]
[322] [That is, the New Law, the gospel of the Son of God.]
[323] [Vision ii. 2. Denying the Son.]
[324] And … cut, omitted in Pal.
[325] [Wake reads “cleft.”]
[326] [Clefts.]
[327] Omitted in Lips. Translation is made from Vat.
[328] The versions vary in some of the minute particulars.
[329] [The by-gone quarrels about foreknowledge and predestination are innocently enough anticipated here.]
[330] [Jas. ii. 7.]
[331] [Heb. x. 39.]
[332] [Here is a note of Hermas’ time. Not only does it imply the history of heresies as of some progress, but it marks the Montanist refusal to receive penitent lapsers.]
