Introductory Note to the Writings of Justin Martyr
[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.
[1990] This and following quotation taken promiscuously from Matt. xxiii. and Luke xi.
[1992] [They did not Sabbatize; but Justin does not deny what is implied in many Scriptures, that they marked the week, and noted the seventh day.Gen. ii. 3, Gen. viii. 10, 12.]
Chapter XX.—Why choice of meats was prescribed.
[1996] νεκριμαῖον, or “dieth of itself;” com. reading was ἐκριμαῖον, which was supposed to be derived from ἐκρίπτω, and to mean “which ought to be cast out:” the above was suggested by H. Stephanus.
[1997] ἄὸικος καὶ παράνομος.
[1998] “The reasoning of St. Justin is not quite clear to interpreters. As we abstain from some herbs, not because they are forbidden by law, but because they are deadly; so the law of abstinence from improper and violent animals was imposed not on Noah, but on you as a yoke on account of your sins.”—Maranus.
Chapter XXII.—So also were sacrifices and oblations.
[2001] Amos v. 18 to end, Amos vi. 1-7.
