Introductory Notice to The Clementine Homilies.
[979] [The Ebionitic tendency appears in this representation of Simon, as opposing the monotheism of the Old Testament. Comp. Recognitions, ii. 38.—R.]
Chapter XXXIX.—Defects Ascribed to God.
[984] Gen. xxii. 1. [These objections from the anthropomorphism of the Jewish Scriptures are not found in the Recognitions.—R.]
Chapter XLI.—“Status Quæstionis.”
[985] The text of this passage in all the editions is meaningless. It becomes clear by change of punctuation.
[986] [Comp. ii. 38 and many other passages for this view of the errors of Scripture. The test of truth as here stated is noteworthy. It suggests some modern affinities.—R.]
Chapter XLIII.—God’s Foreknowledge.
[988] That is, Kibroth-Hattaavah; Num. xi. 34.
Chapter XLVII.—Foreknowledge of Moses.
[989] Deut. xxxiv. 6, LXX.
[990] [It is curious to find the post-exilian theory of the Pentateuch in this place, put in the mouth of the Apostle Peter.—R.]
Chapter XLIX.—The True Prophet.
[992] From the amended reading of Davis.
Chapter L.—His Teaching Concerning the Scriptures.
[993] [Comp. Homily II. 40. The attitude of Peter, as here represented, disparaging the Old Testament, appearing to exalt the author of Christ’s teachings, and yet ignoring the claims of His Person and Work, seeks its justification in rationalistic interpretation. The attitude is not an uncommon one at present.—R.]
[994] Matt. xxii. 29. [Misquoted and misapplied here, as in Homily II. 51.—R.]
[995] This is frequently quoted as a saying of Christ. It is probably from one of the apocryphal Gospels. [Comp. Homily II. 51.—R.]
Chapter LI.—His Teaching Concerning the Law.
Chapter LII.—Other Sayings of Christ.
