Introductory Notice to The Recognitions of Clement.
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.”
[795] [This is the title-word of the book, as is evident. Hence the italics here, and not in Homily XII. 23.—R.]
[796] [At this point a discourse of the Apostle on “philanthropy” is inserted in the Homilies (xii. 25–33). Homily XIII. 1 corresponds with this chapter.—R.]
[797] [This account is fuller than that in Homily XIII. 2.—R.]
[798] There is a confusion in the text between Aradus and Antaradus. [Aradus is the name of the Island, Antaradus that of the neighbouring city.—R.]
Chapter XXVIII.—More Recognitions.
[799] [With chaps. 28–36 the narrative in Homily XIII. 3–11 corresponds quite closely.—R.]
Chapter XXIX.—“Nothing Common or Unclean.”
[800] [Comp. Homily XIII. 4.—R.]
Chapter XXXVII.—Peter Inexorable.
[801] [In Homily XIII. 12 the Apostle is represented as thus deferring the baptism; but a longer discourse on chastity (chaps. 13–21) is given, assigned to the evening of that day.—R.]
