Introductory Notice to The Recognitions of Clement.
[764] [Comp. book ii. 45. In Homily X. 10, etc., the influence of the serpent is spoken of, but the discourse here is much fuller. There is, however, a general agreement in outline between chaps. 17–22 here and Homily X. 10–21.—R.]
Chapter XIX.—His Second Suggestion.
[765] The writer means, that insult is offered to that name which belongs to God alone by giving it to others, and thus placing it in a position which is unjust to it.
Chapter XXIII.—Third Suggestion.
[766] [To chaps. 23–36 a parallel is afforded by Homily XI. 4–18.—R.]
Chapter XXV.—Fifth Suggestion.
Chapter XXIX.—God’s Care of Human Things.
[768] 1 Kings xvii.; xviii.; Jas. v. 17-18.
Chapter XXX.—Religion of Fathers to Be Abandoned.
[769] Literally, “change the bestower of it for another.”
Chapter XXXIII.—Origin of Impiety.
[770] The original has here, “as is often known;” that is, as people know from many instances having occurred within their own knowledge.
Chapter XXXIV.—Who are Worshippers of God?
[771] Rom. ii. 28; Rev. ii. 9.
[772] Matt. xvii. 20; Luke xvii. 6.

Chapter IV.—Not Peace, But a Sword.
[777] [The remaining chapters of this book (4–14) correspond with Homily XI. 19–33. The discourse here is somewhat fuller, but the order of topics is the same throughout.—R.]
Chapter V.—How the Fight Begins.
Chapter VII.—The Earth Made for Men.
Chapter VIII.—Necessity of Baptism.
[783] [There is no exact parallel to these statements in the corresponding chapter of the Homilies (xi. 26).—R.]
