Introductory Notice to The Recognitions of Clement.
[774] [Comp. book iii. 31. To this there is no parallel in the Homilies.—R.]
[775] It will be remembered that the hours were variable periods, and began to be reckoned from sunrise.
Chapter II.—Much to Be Done in a Little Time.
[776] [To chaps. 2, 3, there is a parallel in the corresponding chapters of Homily XI. Then follows a long passage similar to that in book v. 23–36.—R.]
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.]
[784] John iii. 5. [This passage is cited, with additions, in Homily XI. 26.—R.]
Chapter XI.—Inward and Outward Cleansing.
Chapter XII.—Importance of Chastity.
[786] [This chapter is more specific in its statements than Homily XI. 30, to which it has a general resemblance.—R.]
Chapter XIV.—Knowledge Enhances Responsibility.
[787] Matt. xii. 42; Luke xi. 31.
[788] Matt. xii. 41; Luke xi. 32.
Chapter XV.—Bishops, Presbyters, Deacons, and Widows Ordained at Tripolis.
[789] [Comp. Homily XI. 35, 36, which, however, contain additional matter.—R.]
[790] Literally, “breaking the Eucharist.”
Chapter I.—Journey from Tripolis.
[791] [The narrative of book vii. is given in Homilies XII., XIII.; chap. 38 including some details of Homily XIV. 1. The variations in the narrative portions are unimportant: but the Homilies contain longer discourses of the Apostle. Chaps 1–24 here correspond quite exactly with Homily XII. 1–24; the topics of the respective chapters being the same, and the variations mainly in forms of expression.—R.]
Chapter VIII.—Clement’s Family History.
[792] [Comp. Homily XII. 8, where the names given are: Mattidia, Faustus (father); Faustinus and Faustinianus, the twin sons. With these names some connect the German legend of Faust; see Schaff, History, ii. 442.—R.]
Chapter XII.—Excursion to Aradus.
[793] Various reading, “glass.”
[794] Perhaps, “a man in good position.”
