Introduction, by the American Editor.
[3258] Jam hominem, jam virum in Adv. Judæos, “at man’s estate.”
[3259] Lanceare ante quam lancinare. This play on words points to the very early training of the barbarian boys to war. Lancinare perhaps means, “to nibble the nipple with the gum.”
[3260] He alludes to the suppling of their young joints with oil, and then drying them in the sun.
[3261] Pannis.
[3262] Butyro.
[3264] The tam dignum of this place is “jam signum” in adv. Judæos.
[3265] Contineat.
[3266] This opinion of Jews and Judaizing heretics is mentioned by Irenæus, Adv. Hæret. iii. 21 (Stieren’s ed. i. 532); Eusebius, Hist. Eccles. v. 8; Jerome, Adv. Helvid. (ed. Benedict), p. 132. Nor has the cavil ceased to be held, as is well known, to the present day. The הָעַלְֹמָה of Isa. vii. 4 is supposed by the Jewish Fuerst to be Isaiah’s wife, and he quotes Kimchi’s authority; while the neologian Gesenius interprets the word, a bride, and rejects the Catholic notion of an unspotted virgin. To make way, however, for their view, both Fuerst and Gesenius have to reject the LXX. rendering, παρθένος.
[3267] Disposita.
[3268] Et hic.
[3269] Alius ordo jam infantis.
[3270] Infantia est. Better in adv. Judæos, “est infantiæ.”
[3271] The italicised words we have added from adv. Judæos, “hoc est mirabile signum.”
[3272] Posterior. Posteritas is an attribute of heresy in T.’s view.
[3273] Ceterarum, other than the Jews, i.e., Gentiles.
[3277] See Otto’s Justin Martyr, ii. 273, n. 23. [See Vol. I. p. 238, supra.]
