Introductory Note to Irenæus Against Heresies

^[3437] Luke i. 17.

^[3438] This evidently refers to 1 Kings xviii. 36, where Elijah invokes God as the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, etc.

^[3439] Matt. xi. 9; Luke vii. 26.

^[3440] 1 Cor. xii. 28.

^[3441] The transition here is so abrupt, that some critics suspect the loss of part of the text before these words.

^[3442] John ii. 3.

^[3443] John vi. 11.

^[3444] John i. 18.

^[3445] John i. 47.

^[3446] The reading νεῖκος having been followed instead of νῖκος, victory.

^[3447] John i. 49,John vi. 69; Matt. xii. 18.

^[3448] Harvey thinks that this is the Hebrew Gospel of which Irenæus speaks in the opening of this book; but comp. Dr. Robert’s Discussions on the Gospels, part ii. chap. iv.

^[3449] Literally, “four catholic spirits;” Greek, τέσσαρα καθολικὰ πνεύματα: Latin, “quatuor principales spiritus.”

^[3450] 1 Tim. iii. 15.

^[3451] Ps. lxxx. 1.

^[3452] Rev. iv. 7.

^[3453] John i. 1.

^[3454] The above is the literal rendering of this very obscure sentence; it is not at all represented in the Greek here preserved.

^[3455] The Greek is ὑπέρ: the Latin, “pro.”

^[3456] Matt. i. 1, 18.

^[3457] The Greek text of this clause, literally rendered, is, “This Gospel, then, is anthropomorphic.”
