Introductory Note to the Writings of Justin Martyr

[2213] i.e., the priests of Mithras.

[2214] Isa. xxxiii. 13-19.

[2215] Literally, “to do,” ποιεῖν. [The horrible charge of banqueting on blood, etc., constantly repeated against Christians, was probably based on the Eucharist. See Kaye’s Illustrations from Tatian, Athenagorus, and Theoph. Antioch., cap. ix. p. 153.]

[2216] Literally, “to do,” ποιεῖν. [The horrible charge of banqueting on blood, etc., constantly repeated against Christians, was probably based on the Eucharist. See Kaye’s Illustrations from Tatian, Athenagorus, and Theoph. Antioch., cap. ix. p. 153.]

Chapter LXXI.—The Jews reject the interpretation of the LXX., from which, moreover, they have taken away some passages.

[2217] Or, “profess.”

Chapter LXXII.—Passages have been removed by the Jews from Esdras and Jeremiah.

[2218] Or, “even if we.”

[2219] It is not known where this passage comes from.

[2220] Jer. xi. 19.

[2221] This is wanting in our Scriptures: it is cited by Iren., iii. 20, under the name of Isaiah, and in iv. 22 under that of Jeremiah.—Maranus.

Chapter LXXIII.—[The words] “From the wood” have been cut out of Ps. xcvi.

[2222] These words were not taken away by the Jews, but added by some Christian.—Otto. [A statement not proved.]

[2223] It is strange that “from the wood” is not added; but the audacity of the copyists in such matters is well known.—Maranus.

[2224] Many think, “you.”

Chapter LXXIV.—The beginning of Ps. xcvi. is attributed to the Father [by Trypho]. But [it refers] to Christ by these words: “Tell ye among the nations that the Lord,” etc.

[2225] In text, “you.” Maranus suggests, as far better, “we.”

[2226] Something is here wanting; the suggested reading of Maranus has been adopted. [As to omissions between this chapter and the next, critics are not agreed. The Benedictine editors see no proofs of them.]

[2227] Deut. xxxi. 16-18.

[2228] Literally, “for food.”

[2229] The first conference seems to have ended hereabout. [It occupied two days. But the student must consult the learned note of Kaye (Justin Martyr, p. 20. Rivingtons, London. 1853).]

Chapter LXXV.—It is proved that Jesus was the name of God in the book of Exodus.

[2230] Ex. xxiii. 20, 21.

[2231] [Num. xiii. 16.]

[2232] Isa. vi. 8.

[2233] Or, “so many.”

Chapter LXXVI.—From other passages the same majesty and government of Christ are proved.
