Introductory Notice to The Clementine Homilies.
[1134] Altered from John iii. 5.
[1135] [Comp. Recognitions, ix. 7.—R.]
Chapter XXXIII.—The Queen of the South and the Men of Nineveh.
[1136] Matt. 12.42; Luke 11.31.—R.]
[1137] [Matt. 12.41; Luke 11.32. [The order of the two citations suggests that they were taken from Luke.—R.]
Chapter XXXIV.—Peter’s Daily Work.
[1138] [Comp. Homily IV. 12 and the full discussion in XIV. 3–11. In the Recognitions there is no reference to “genesis” before book viii. 2, etc., which is parallel with the passage just referred to.—R.]
Chapter XXXV.—“Beware of False Prophets.”
[1139] A conjectural reading, which seems probable, is, Unless he come to you with credentials, viz., from James. [The whole charge is peculiar to the Homilies.—R.].
Chapter XXXVI.—Farewell to Tripolis.
[1140] Literally, “having broken.”
[1141] [On the correspondence of Homilies XII., XIII., with Recognitions, vii., see note on vii. 1. Chaps. 1–24 here agree quite closely, even in the divisions of chapters, with Recognitions, vii. 1–24.—R.]
[1142] Literally, “of wickedness.”
Chapter V.—Clement’s Office of Service.
[1143] Here the text is hopelessly corrupt, and the meaning can only be guessed at.
[1144] I have ventured to make a very slight change on the reading here, so as to bring out what I suppose to be the sense.
Chapter VII.—“Not to Be Ministered Unto, But to Minister.”
[1145] A negative particle seems to be dropped from the text.
[1146] [The family names as given in the Recognitions are: Matthidia; Faustinianus (the father); Faustinus and Faustus, the twin sons.—Comp. Recognitions, viii. 8, and passim.—R.]
Chapter XXIII.—Reward of Hospitality.
[1147] [Comp. Recognitions, vii. 23, where the translator prints the word in italics.—R.]
Chapter XXV.—Philanthropy and Friendship.
[1148] [The remainder of this Homily has no parallel in the Recognitions. The views presented are peculiar, and indicate a speculative tendency, less marked in the Recognitions.—R.]
[1149] The word repeatedly rendered knowledge and once omniscience in this passage, properly signifies foreknowledge. The argument shows clearly that it means omniscience, of which foreknowledge is the most signal manifestation.
Chapter XXIX.—Sufferings of the Good.
[1150] An incorrect quotation from Matt. xviii. 7; Luke xvii. 1.
[1151] This from a various reading.
Chapter XXX.—Offences Must Come.
[1152] That is, I suppose, who render good for evil.
Chapter XXXI.—“Howbeit, They Meant It Not.”
[1153] See Luke 12.6-7; Matt. 10.29-30.—R.].
Chapter XXXII.—The Golden Rule.
