Introduction, by the American Editor.

[3462] Gen. xxvii. 39.

[3463] Judæorum enim dispositio in Esau priorum natu et posteriorum affectu filiorum. This is the original of a difficult passage, in which Tertullian, who has taken Jacob as a type of the later, the Christian church, seems to make Esau the symbol of the former, the Jewish church, which, although prior in time, was later in allegiance to the full truth of God.

[3464] Temere, si forte, interpretabimur.

[3465] Gen. xxviii. 12-17.

[3466] Apud.

[3467] Amos ix. 6.

[3468] Isa. xlix. 18.

[3469] Isa. lx. 8.

[3470] In allusion to the dove as the symbol of the Spirit, see Matt. iii. 16.

[3471] Dan. vii. 13.

[3472] 1 Thess. iv. 17.

[3473] Isa. i. 2.

[3474] Præjudicium.

[3475] Præconium.

[3476] Si forte.

[3477] Indulgentiæ.

[3478] Regiam: perhaps “capital” or “palace.”

[3479] Omne.

Book IV. In Which Tertullian Pursues His Argument. Jesus is the Christ of the Creator. He Derives His Proofs from St. Luke’s Gospel; That Being the Only Historical Portion of the New Testament Partially Accepted by Marcion. This Book May Also Be Regarded as a Commentary on St. Luke. It Gives Remarkable Proof of Tertullian’s Grasp of Scripture, and Proves that “The Old Testament is Not Contrary to the New.” It Also Abounds in Striking Expositions of Scriptural Passages, Embracing Profound Views of Revelation, in Connection with the Nature of Man.

[3480] [The remarks of Bishop Kaye on our author’s Marcion are simply invaluable, and the student cannot dispense with what is said more particularly of this Book. See Kaye, pp. 450–480.]

Chapter I.—Examination of the Antitheses of Marcion, Bringing Them to the Test of Marcion’s Own Gospel. Certain True Antitheses in the Dispensations of the Old and the New Testaments. These Variations Quite Compatible with One and the Same God, Who Ordered Them.

[3481] Paraturam.

[3482] Provocamus ad. [Kaye, p. 469, refers to Schleiermacher’s Critical Essay on St. Luke and to a learned note of Mr. Andrews Norton of Harvard (vol. iii. Appendix C.) for valuable remarks on Marcion’s Gospel.]
