Introductory Note to the Writings of Justin Martyr
[1967] According to another reading, “I did not leave.”
Chapter XI.—The law abrogated; the New Testament promised and given by God.
[1968] Editors suppose that Justin inserts a long parenthesis here, from “for” to “Egypt.” It is more natural to take this as an anacoluthon. Justin was going to say, “But now we trust through Christ,” but feels that such a statement requires preliminary explanation.
[1969] According to the LXX, Isa. li. 4, 5.
Chapter XII.—The Jews violate the eternal law, and interpret ill that of Moses.
[1971] Isa. lv. 3 ff. according to LXX.
[1972] Not in Jeremiah; some would insert, in place of Jeremiah, Isaiah or John. [St. John xii. 40;Isa. vi. 10; where see full references in the English margin. But comp. Jer. vii. 24, 26,Jer. xi. 8, and Jer. xvii. 23.]
Chapter XIII.—Isaiah teaches that sins are forgiven through Christ’s blood.
[1973] 1 Cor. x. 4. Otto reads: which he mentioned and which was for those who repented.
[1974] Three times in Justin, not in LXX.
[1975] Deviating slightly from LXX., omitting a clause.
[1976] LXX. “not as,” etc.
[1977] LXX. “not as,” etc.
[1978] Isa. lii. 10 ff. following LXX. on to liv. 6.
[1979] Isa. lv. 3 to end.
Chapter XV.—In what the true fasting consists.
[1980] ἱμάτια; some read ἰάματα, as in LXX., “thy health,” the better reading probably.
[1984] See Apol., i. 47. The Jews [By Hadrian’s recent edict] were prohibited by law from entering Jerusalem on pain of death. And so Justin sees in circumcision their own punishment.
Chapter XVII.—The Jews sent persons through the whole earth to spread calumnies on Christians.
[1987] Isa. iii. 9 ff.
