Introductory Note to the Writings of Justin Martyr

[2355] Luke xxiii. 46.

[2356] Matt. v. 20.

Chapter CVI.—Christ’s resurrection is foretold in the conclusion of the Psalm.

[2357] Num. xxiv. 17.

[2358] [Or, “Dayspring.”] Zech. vi. 12 (according to LXX.).

Chapter CVII.—The same is taught from the history of Jonah.

[2359] Matt. xii. 38 f.

[2360] In the LXX. only three days are recorded, though in the Hebrew and other versions forty. The parenthetic clause is probably the work of a transcriber.

[2361] Read κικυῶνα for σικυῶνα.

[2362] Jon. iv. 10 f.

Chapter CVIII.—The resurrection of Christ did not convert the Jews. But through the whole world they have sent men to accuse Christ.

[2363] Chap. xvii.

Chapter CIX.—The conversion of the Gentiles has been predicted by Micah.

[2364] Read μαθόντα for παθόντα.

[2365] Literally, “people shall place a river in it.”

[2366] Mic. iv. 1 ff.

Chapter CX.—A portion of the prophecy already fulfilled in the Christians: the rest shall be fulfilled at the second advent.

[2367] 2 Thess. ii. 3; and see chap. xxxii.

[2368] Ps. 128:3.

[2369] Isa. lvii. 1.

Chapter CXI.—The two advents were signified by the two goats. Other figures of the first advent, in which the Gentiles are freed by the blood of Christ.

[2370] Isa. liii. 7.

Chapter CXII.—The Jews expound these signs jejunely and feebly, and take up their attention only with insignificant matters.

[2371] Isa. xxvii. 1.

[2372] Matt. xxiii. 27, 23, 24. [Note the examples he gives of the rabbinical expositions. He consents to their principle, but gives nobler analogies.]

Chapter CXIII.—Joshua was a figure of Christ.

[2373] According to the LXX., Σάρα was altered to Σάῤῥα, and Ἄβραμ to Ἀβραάμ.

[2374] Or, “resurrection of the saints.”

[2375] Justin seems to mean that the renewal of heaven and earth dates from the incarnation of Christ. [St. Matt. xix. 28.]

Chapter CXIV.—Some rules for discerning what is said about Christ. The circumcision of the Jews is very different from that which Christians receive.
