Introductory Notice to The Clementine Homilies.
[1079] [The conclusion of the discussion is noteworthy, not only from the fairness of the argument, but from the skill with which the position of Clement, as a heathen inquirer, is maintained.—R.]
Chapter I.—Peter Addresses the People.
[1080] [The historical details of this Homily also have no parallel in the Recognitions.—R.]
[1081] [With this discourse respecting Simon, compare Recognitions, ii. 6–18. But the statements respecting Simon’s power and the design of it are much stronger than here.—R.]
Chapter V.—Peter Departs for Sidon.
[1082] We have adopted Wieseler’s emendation. The text may be translated thus: “And after that, among his other wondrous deeds, all the rest (who had not been baptized) sat down,” etc.
[1083] [Compare with this chapter the recently discovered “Teaching” and Apostolic Constitutions, book vii. chap. 1, in vol. vii. pp. 377, 465.—R.]
Chapter VIII.—The Service of God’s Appointment.
[1084] [Comp. Recognitions, iv. 36. The language recalls Acts 15.20; 1 Cor. 10.21.—R.]
Chapter I.—Peter’s Arrival at Tripolis.
[1085] [For the general parallelism of Homilies VIII.–XI. with Recognitions, iv.–vi., see the footnote on Recognitions, iv. 1. Homilies VIII., IX., contain matter included in the single discourse of Recognitions, book iv.—R.]
[1086] Lit.: More willing to learn than the others.
[1087] [“Maro” in Recognitions, iv. The resemblance between that book and this Homily is quite marked.—R.]
Chapter III.—A Conversation Interrupted.
[1088] [Comp. Recognitions, iv. 3.—R.]
[1089] [With chaps. 4–11 compare the closely resembling passage, Recognitions, iv. 4–11.—R.]
[1090] Matt. viii. 11; Luke xiii. 29.
Chapter V.—Faith the Gift of God.
Chapter VI.—Concealment and Revelation.
[1093] Matt. 11.25; Luke 10.21.—R.]
Chapter VII.—Moses and Christ.
Chapter VIII.—A Large Congregation.
[1095] [In Recognitions, iv. 7, the healing is represented as occurring at once.—R.]
Chapter XI.—Cause of the Fall of Man.
[1096] The general meaning seems to be as given; but the text is undoubtedly corrupt, and scarcely intelligible.
Chapter XII.—Metamorphoses of the Angels.
[1097] [Chaps. 12–16 have no parallel in the corresponding discourse in the Recognitions. The doctrine here is peculiar. But compare Recognitions, iv. 26.—R.]
Chapter XIII.—The Fall of the Angels.
[1098] [Comp. Recognitions, i. 30. The details here are not only fuller, but apparently represent a more developed speculation.—R.]
[1099] The text is somewhat obscure; but the following sentence shows this to be the meaning of it.
Chapter XIV.—Their Discoveries.
