Introductory Notice to The Clementine Homilies.
[1438] Or, “on whose account.”
[1439] [Comp. xi. 8; Recognitions, iii. 21, 26, etc.—R.]
[1440] The text is corrupt.
Chapter XVI.—Why the Wicked One is Entrusted with Power.
[1441] The ms. reads: “In this respect he who made him is wicked, who gave existence to what was non-existent.”
[1442] The Greek is either ungrammatical or corrupt, but the sense is evident.
Chapter XVII.—The Devil Has Not Equal Power with God.
[1443] This passage is supposed by most to be defective, and various words have been suggested to supply the lacuna.
[1444] Or, “monarch.” But only two letters of the word are in the ms.; the rest is filled in by conjecture.
[1445] Supplied by conjecture.
[1446] Three words are struck out of the text of the ms. by all editors, as being a repetition.
Chapter XVIII.—Is the Devil a Relation?
[1447] The editors punctuate differently, thus: “And knowing beforehand that he was becoming not good, He would not have allowed him, unless He knew that he would be useful to Himself.” We suppose the reference in the text to be to Gen. i. 31.
[1448] Or, “self-subsistence.” We have supposed a transposition of the words in the text. The text is without doubt corrupt.
[1449] We have adopted an emendation of Lagarde’s.
Chapter XIX.—Some Actions Really Wicked.
[1450] Dressel translates viriliter, “manfully.”
[1451] This word is supplied by conjecture.
[1452] This passage is hopelessly corrupt. We have changed δικαίως into δικαιοῖς, the verb, and τὸν προδιωρισμένον into τοῦ προδιωρισμένου.
[1453] We have adopted Wieseler’s emendation of ἄδικον into ἀδικεῖν.
[1454] This is a conjectural filling up of a blank.
[1455] This is partly conjecture, to fill up a blank.
[1456] The text is likely corrupt.
[1457] Uhlhorn changed οὖν ἑνός into οὐδενός. We have changed καὶ τρίτην into καὶ τότε τήν. Various emendations have been proposed.
Chapter XX.—Pain and Death the Result of Sin.
[1458] Mark iv. 34. [More probably, Matt. xiii. 11.—R.]
