Introductory Note to the Writings of Justin Martyr
[2031] πληρώσει πτώματα; Lat. version, implebit ruinas. Thirlby suggested that an omission has taken place in the mss. by the transcriber’s fault.
[2032] πεπήρωνται. Maranus thinks πεπώρωνται more probable, “hardened.”
Chapter XXXIV.—Nor does Ps. lxxii. apply to Solomon, whose faults Christians shudder at.
[2034] [A striking passage in De Maistre (Œuvres, vol. vi. p. 275) is worthy of comparison.]
Chapter XXXV.—Heretics confirm the Catholics in the faith.
Chapter XXXVI.—He proves that Christ is called Lord of Hosts.
[2039] Maranus remarks from Thirlby: “As Justin wrote a little before, ‘and is called Jacob in parable,’ it seems to convince us that Justin wrote, ‘thy face, O Jacob.’ ” [The meaning in this latter case becomes plain, if we observe that “O Israel” is equivalent to, and means, “O house of Jacob:” an apostrophe to the Church of the ancient people.]
Chapter XXXVII.—The same is proved from other Psalms.
[2041] Ps. xlvii. 5-9. [The diapsalm is here used for what follows the “Selah.”]
[2042] “For” wanting in both Codd.
[2044] [Hebrew and Greek, “a good word,” i.e., the Logos.]
[2045] Or, “God, thy God.”
[2046] στακτή.
[2047] Literally, “garments of gold, variegated.”
[2048] Literally, “of a hard-hearted opinion.”
