Introductory Note to the Writings of Justin Martyr
[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.”
[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.]
[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.
[2233] Or, “so many.”
Chapter LXXVI.—From other passages the same majesty and government of Christ are proved.
[2234] [Isa. ix. 6, according to LXX.]
[2235] Not in all edd.
[2239] Luke x. 19. [“And on scolopendras” (i.e. centipedes) not in the original.]
[2241] Justin puts “sun and moon” instead of “Lucifer.” [Ps. 110:3, Sept, compounded with Prov. viii. 27.] Maranus says, David did predict, not that Christ would be born of Mary before sun and moon, but that it would happen before sun and moon that He would be born of a virgin.
Chapter LXXVII.—He returns to explain the prophecy of Isaiah.
