Introductory Notice to The Recognitions of Clement.
Chapter XLVIII.—The True Prophet, a Priest.
Chapter L.—His Rejection by the Jews.
Chapter LII.—The Saints Before Christ’s Coming.
[583] That is, the sin of sacrifice.
[585] [Comp. book ii. 8–11 and Homily II. 24. The writer here confuses the later Dositheus with an earlier teacher, whose disciple Zadok was the founder of the sect of the Sadduccees.—R.]
Chapter LV.—Public Discussion.
[587] [Here we encounter that favourite notion of apocryphal writers, that each Apostle must he represented as contributing his portion to the statement and defence of the faith.—R.]
Chapter LVII.—Samaritan Refuted.
Chapter LX.—Disciples of John Refuted.
[590] We should doubtless read “Barsabas.”
Chapter LXI.—Caiaphas Answered.
[591] Matt. v. 3; Luke vi. 20.
Chapter LXIV.—Temple to Be Destroyed.
[592] Dan. ix. 27; Matt. xxiv. 15.
Chapter LXV.—Tumult Stilled by Gamaliel.
Chapter LXVIII.—The Rule of Faith.
[594] [This title is consistent with the position accorded to James the Lord’s brother in the entire pseudo-Clementine literature.—R.]
Chapter LXIX.—Two Comings of Christ.
[595] [This sentence seems to have been framed to accord with the Catholic doctrine.—R.]
Chapter LXX.—Tumult Raised by Saul.
[596] A marginal note in one of the manuscripts states that this enemy was Saul. [This is confirmed by chap. 71.—R.]
Chapter LXXI.—Flight to Jericho.
[597] Acts xxii. 5. [There is an evident attempt to cast a slur upon the apostle Paul, but the suppression of the name is significant.—R.]
Chapter LXXII.—Peter Sent to Cæsarea.
[598] [Comp. book ii. 7 and Homily II. 22, 24.—R.]
[599] [The visit of Peter to Cæsarea narrated in Acts x. was for a very different purpose. It is probable that the author of the Recognitions connected the persecution by Saul and the sorceries of Simon because of the similar juxtaposition in Acts viii.—R.]
