Introductory Note to the Writings of Justin Martyr
[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.
[2244] Text has, by “them;” but Maranus says the artifice lay in the priest’s compelling the initiated to say that Mithras himself was the initiator in the cave.
[2246] Literally, “spoiled.”
[2247] Justin thinks the “spoils of Samaria” denote spoils of Satan; Tertull. thinks that they are spoils of Christ.
[2248] Literally, “add.”
Chapter LXXIX.—He proves against Trypho that the wicked angels have revolted from God.
[2250] LXX. “who walk,” πορευόμενοι for πονηρευόμενοι.
[2251] In E. V. “Zoan.”
[2253] ἐκδεξάμενος; in chap. cxv. inf. it is ἐκλεξάμενος.
[2256] Maranus suggests the insertion of ἐποίησαν or ἐπείρασαν before ἐξισοῦσθαι.
[2258] Justin made no previous allusion to this point, so far as we know from the writing preserved.
[2259] Or, “so as to believe thoroughly that such will take place” (after “opinion”).
