Introductory Note to the Writings of Justin Martyr

[2387] Justin either confuses Joshua son of Josedech with Hosea the prophet, or he refers to the Jewish tradition that “filthy garments” signified either an illicit marriage, or sins of the people, or the squalor of captivity.

[2388] [Isa. lxvi. 21; Rom. xv. 15, 16, 17 (Greek);1 Pet. ii. 9.]

Chapter CXVII.—Malachi’s prophecy concerning the sacrifices of the Christians. It cannot be taken as referring to the prayers of Jews of the dispersion.

[2389] Mal. i. 10-12.

[2390] Or, “God of God.”

[2391] [Note this testimony to the catholicity of the Church in the second century. And see Kaye (compare with Gibbon), cap. vi. 112.]

[2392] εἶτα δὲ for εἰδότες.

Chapter CXVIII.—He exhorts to repentance before Christ comes; in whom Christians, since they believe, are far more religious than Jews.

[2394] Isa. liii. 8.

[2395] 2 Sam. vii. 14:14f.

[2397] The mss. read “them.” Otto has changed it to “Him.”

[2398] Isa. lii. 15,Isa. liii. 1.

[2399] [Let this apology be noted.]

Chapter CXIX.—Christians are the holy people promised to Abraham. They have been called like Abraham.

[2400] Literally, “in the time of Moses.”

[2401] Deut. xxxii. 16-23.

[2402] Zech. ii. 11.

[2403] See chap. cx.

[2404] Isa. lxii. 12.

[2405] Isa. lxv. 1.

Chapter CXX.—Christians were promised to Isaac, Jacob, and Judah.
