Early Christian Commentary - (A.D. 100 - A.D. 325) Anf-02 vi.iii.ii.iv Pg 19.1 Npnf-201 iii.vi.xiii Pg 22
Npnf-201 iii.vi.xiii Pg 22 Anf-03 v.v.vi Pg 4 Matt. xvi. 26. Some omit this quotation. Him I seek, who died for us: Him I desire, who rose again for our sake. This is the gain which is laid up for me. Pardon me, brethren: do not hinder me from living, do not wish to keep me in a state of death;863 863 Literally, “to die.” and while I desire to belong to God, do not ye give me over to the world. Suffer me to obtain pure light: when I have gone thither, I shall indeed be a man of God. Permit me to be an imitator of the passion of my God. If any one has Him within himself, let him consider what I desire, and let him have sympathy with me, as knowing how I am straitened. Anf-01 ix.ii.xx Pg 3 Hos. iv. 1. they strive to give the same reference. And, “There is none that understandeth, or that seeketh after God: they have all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable,”2908 2908
Anf-01 v.iv.vii Pg 6 Hos. v. 1. For “he that does not heal himself in his own works, is the brother of him that destroys himself.”770 770 Anf-01 viii.iv.lix Pg 4 Ex. iii. 16. In addition to these words, I went on: “Have you perceived, sirs, that this very God whom Moses speaks of as an Angel that talked to him in the flame of fire, declares to
Anf-02 vi.iv.ii.v Pg 3.1
Anf-03 vi.iv.iii Pg 3 Ex. iii. 13–16. To us it has been revealed in the Son, for the Son is now the Father’s new name. “I am come,” saith He, “in the Father’s name;”8774 8774 Anf-01 ix.vi.xix Pg 12 Jer. xxii. 17. And again Isaiah saith, “Ye have taken counsel, but not of Me; and made covenants, [but] not by My Spirit.”4043 4043 Anf-02 vi.ii.i Pg 17.1
Anf-02 vi.ii.ix Pg 8.1 Anf-03 iv.ix.viii Pg 24 Comp. Ps. xlix. 11 (in LXX. Ps. xlviii. 12). after him reigned, (there, in Alexandria,) Anf-03 v.viii.xxvi Pg 5 Gen. iv. 11. but even this was as a figure of homicidal flesh. For if the earth has to suffer either joy or injury, it is simply on man’s account, that he may suffer the joy or the sorrow through the events which happen to his dwelling-place, whereby he will rather have to pay the penalty which, simply on his account, even the earth must suffer. When, therefore, God even threatens the earth, I would prefer saying that He threatens the flesh: so likewise, when He makes a promise to the earth, I would rather understand Him as promising the flesh; as in that passage of David: “The Lord is King, let the earth be glad,”7464 7464 Anf-01 ix.vi.xix Pg 12 Jer. xxii. 17. And again Isaiah saith, “Ye have taken counsel, but not of Me; and made covenants, [but] not by My Spirit.”4043 4043 Anf-01 viii.iv.lxxxii Pg 3 Isa. i. 23. Now, if you know certain amongst us to be of this sort, do not for their sakes blaspheme the Scriptures and Christ, and do not assiduously strive to give falsified interpretations.
Anf-01 ix.vi.iii Pg 21 Isa. i. 23. And Jeremiah, in like manner: “They,” he says, “who rule my people did not know me; they are senseless and imprudent children; they are wise to do evil, but to do well they have no knowledge.”3822 3822
Anf-02 vi.iii.i.ix Pg 49.1 Anf-01 ix.vi.xix Pg 12 Jer. xxii. 17. And again Isaiah saith, “Ye have taken counsel, but not of Me; and made covenants, [but] not by My Spirit.”4043 4043 Anf-01 vi.ii.ix Pg 10 Isa. i. 10. And again He saith, “Hear, ye children, the voice of one crying in the wilderness.”1557 1557 Cod. Sin. reads, “it is the voice,” corrected, however, as above. Therefore He hath circumcised our ears, that we might hear His word and believe, for the circumcision in which they trusted is abolished.1558
Anf-01 ix.vi.xlii Pg 14 Isa. i. 10. intimating that they were like the Sodomites in wickedness, and that the same description of sins was rife among them, calling them by the same name, because of the similarity of their conduct. And inasmuch as they were not by nature so created by God, but had power also to act rightly, the same person said to them, giving them good counsel, “Wash ye, make you clean; take away iniquity from your souls before mine eyes; cease from your iniquities.”4447 4447
Anf-03 iv.ix.ix Pg 22 Isa. i. 10. when those cities had already long been extinct.1268 1268
Anf-03 v.iv.iv.xiii Pg 28 Isa. i. 10. And in another passage He also says: “Thy father was an Amorite, and thy mother an Hittite,”3281 3281
Anf-03 v.iv.v.xxvii Pg 25 Isa. i. 10. who forbids us “to put confidence even in princes,”4598 4598
Anf-03 v.iv.v.xxi Pg 36 Isa. lvii. i. When does this more frequently happen than in the persecution of His saints? This, indeed, is no ordinary matter,4291 4291 We have, by understanding res, treated these adjectives as nouns. Rigalt. applies them to the doctrina of the sentence just previous. Perhaps, however, “persecutione” is the noun. no common casualty of the law of nature; but it is that illustrious devotion, that fighting for the faith, wherein whosoever loses his life for God saves it, so that you may here again recognize the Judge who recompenses the evil gain of life with its destruction, and the good loss thereof with its salvation. It is, however, a jealous God whom He here presents to me; one who returns evil for evil. “For whosoever,” says He, “shall be ashamed of me, of him will I also be ashamed.”4292 4292 Anf-03 v.iv.v.xxix Pg 53 Jer. xxii. 3. by Isaiah, “Judge the fatherless, plead for the widow,”4702 4702 Anf-02 vi.iii.i.viii Pg 28.1 Anf-03 v.iv.v.xix Pg 3 Isa. xxxii. 9, 10. Quoted as usual, from the LXX.: Γυναῖκες πλούσιαι ἀνάστητε, καὶ ἀκούσατε τῆς φωνῆς μου· θυγατέρες ἐν ἐλπίδι εἰσακούσατε λόγους μου. ῾Ημέρας ἐνιαυτοῦ μνείαν ποιήσασθε ἐν ὀδύνῃ μετ᾽ ἐλπίδος. —that He might prove4185 4185 Ostenderet. them first as disciples, and then as assistants and helpers: “Daughters, hear my words in hope; this day of the year cherish the memory of, in labour with hope.” For it was “in labour” that they followed Him, and “with hope” did they minister to Him. On the subject of parables, let it suffice that it has been once for all shown that this kind of language4186 4186 Eloquii. was with equal distinctness promised by the Creator. But there is that direct mode of His speaking4187 4187 Pronunciatio. to the people—“Ye shall hear with the ear, but ye shall not understand”4188 4188 Anf-03 v.iv.v.xxxiv Pg 55 See Isa. lii. 7, xxxiii. 14 (Sept.), and Amos ix. 6. Down in hell, however, it was said concerning them: “They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them!”—even those who did not believe them or at least did not sincerely4856 4856 Omnino. believe that after death there were punishments for the arrogance of wealth and the glory of luxury, announced indeed by Moses and the prophets, but decreed by that God, who deposes princes from their thrones, and raiseth up the poor from dunghills.4857 4857
Anf-03 v.iv.v.xxxiv Pg 49 Isa. xxxiii. 14–16, according to the Septuagint, which has but slight resemblance to the Hebrew. Now, although this everlasting abode is promised, and the ascending stories (or steps) to heaven are built by the Creator, who further promises that the seed of Abraham shall be even as the stars of heaven, by virtue certainly of the heavenly promise, why may it not be possible,4850 4850 Cur non capiat. without any injury to that promise, that by Abraham’s bosom is meant some temporary receptacle of faithful souls, wherein is even now delineated an image of the future, and where is given some foresight of the glory4851 4851 Candida quædam prospiciatur: where candida is a noun substantive (see above, chap. vii. p. 353). of both judgments? If so, you have here, O heretics, during your present lifetime, a warning that Moses and the prophets declare one only God, the Creator, and His only Christ, and how that both awards of everlasting punishment and eternal salvation rest with Him, the one only God, who kills and who makes alive. Well, but the admonition, says Marcion, of our God from heaven has commanded us not to hear Moses and the prophets, but Christ; Hear Him is the command.4852 4852 Anf-03 v.iii.vii Pg 11 “De enthymesi;” for this word Tertullian gives animationem (in his tract against Valentinus, ix.), which seems to mean, “the mind in operation.” (See the same treatise, x. xi.) With regard to the other word, Jerome (on Amos. iii.) adduces Valentinus as calling Christ ἔκτρωμα, that is, abortion. Unhappy Aristotle! who invented for these men dialectics, the art of building up and pulling down; an art so evasive in its propositions,1920 1920 Sententiis. so far-fetched in its conjectures, so harsh, in its arguments, so productive of contentions—embarrassing1921 1921 Molestam. even to itself, retracting everything, and really treating of1922 1922 Tractaverit, in the sense of conclusively settling. nothing! Whence spring those “fables and endless genealogies,”1923 1923 Anf-02 vi.iii.i.viii Pg 28.1 Anf-02 vi.iv.iv.xxi Pg 54.1 Anf-03 v.iii.vii Pg 11 “De enthymesi;” for this word Tertullian gives animationem (in his tract against Valentinus, ix.), which seems to mean, “the mind in operation.” (See the same treatise, x. xi.) With regard to the other word, Jerome (on Amos. iii.) adduces Valentinus as calling Christ ἔκτρωμα, that is, abortion. Unhappy Aristotle! who invented for these men dialectics, the art of building up and pulling down; an art so evasive in its propositions,1920 1920 Sententiis. so far-fetched in its conjectures, so harsh, in its arguments, so productive of contentions—embarrassing1921 1921 Molestam. even to itself, retracting everything, and really treating of1922 1922 Tractaverit, in the sense of conclusively settling. nothing! Whence spring those “fables and endless genealogies,”1923 1923 Anf-01 viii.ii.lx Pg 6 Deut. xxxii. 22. It is not, then, that we hold the same opinions as others, but that all speak in imitation of ours. Among us these things can be heard and learned from persons who do not even know the forms of the letters, who are uneducated and barbarous in speech, though wise and believing in mind; some, indeed, even maimed and deprived of eyesight; so that you may understand that these things are not the effect of human wisdom, but are uttered by the power of God.
Anf-01 viii.ii.lix Pg 2 Comp. Deut. xxxii. 22. Anf-01 ix.vi.iii Pg 2 Deut. xxxii. 1. Again, David saying that his help came from the Lord, asserts: “My help is from the Lord, who made heaven and earth.”3809 3809 Anf-02 vi.iii.ii.iv Pg 19.1 Anf-02 vi.iii.ii.iv Pg 19.1 Anf-01 ix.iv.vii Pg 6 Ps. l. 1. Who is meant by God? He of whom He has said, “God shall come openly, our God, and shall not keep silence;”3334 3334
Anf-01 viii.iv.xxii Pg 4 Ps. l. (in E. V.). Accordingly He neither takes sacrifices from you nor commanded them at first to be offered because they are needful to Him, but because of your sins. For indeed the temple, which is called the temple in Jerusalem, He admitted to be His house or court, not as though He needed it, but in order that you, in this view of it, giving yourselves to Him, might not worship idols. And that this is so, Isaiah says: ‘What house have ye built Me? saith the Lord. Heaven is My throne, and earth is My footstool.’2004 2004 Anf-01 vi.ii.ix Pg 8 Isa. i. 2. These are in proof.1555 1555 In proof of the spiritual meaning of circumcision; but Hilgenfeld joins the words to the preceding sentence. And again He saith, “Hear the word of the Lord, ye rulers of this people.”1556
Anf-01 ix.vi.iii Pg 4 Isa. i. 2. And again: “Thus saith the Lord God, who made the heaven, and stretched it out; who established the earth, and the things in it; and who giveth breath to the people upon it, and spirit to them who walk therein.”3811 3811
Anf-01 ix.vi.xlii Pg 5 Isa. i. 2. And again, where He says that these children are aliens: “Strange children have lied unto Me.”4439 4439
Anf-02 vi.iv.iv.xxi Pg 53.1
Anf-02 vi.iii.i.ix Pg 15.1
Anf-03 iv.ix.iii Pg 8 Again an error; for these words precede the others. These are found in Isa. i. 2. and again, “And if ye shall have outstretched hands, I will avert my face from you; and if ye shall have multiplied prayers, I will not hear you: for your hands are full of blood;”1168 1168
Anf-03 iv.ix.iii Pg 23 Comp. Isa. i. 2 as above, and Acts xiii. 17. in Egypt, and was transported through the Red Sea, and who in the desert, fed forty years with manna, was wrought to the semblance of eternity, and not contaminated with human passions,1183 1183 Sæculi. or fed on this world’s1184 1184
Anf-03 iv.ix.ix Pg 25 Isa. i. 2, as before. So, too, Egypt is sometimes understood to mean the whole world1271 1271 Orbis. in that prophet, on the count of superstition and malediction.1272 1272
Anf-03 v.iv.iv.xiii Pg 31 Isa. i. 2. So likewise by Egypt is sometimes understood, in His sense,3284 3284 Apud illum, i.e., Creatorem. the whole world as being marked out by superstition and a curse.3285 3285 Maledictionis. By a similar usage Babylon also in our (St.) John is a figure of the city of Rome, as being like (Babylon) great and proud in royal power, and warring down the saints of God. Now it was in accordance with this style that He called the magi by the name of Samaritans, because (as we have said) they had practised idolatry as did the Samaritans. Moreover, by the phrase “before or against the king of Assyria,” understand “against Herod;” against whom the magi then opposed themselves, when they refrained from carrying him back word concerning Christ, whom he was seeking to destroy.
Anf-03 v.iv.iv.xxiv Pg 41 Isa. i. 2. Now, for my own part indeed, even though Scripture held out no hand of heavenly hope to me (as, in fact, it so often does), I should still possess a sufficient presumption3474 3474 Præjudicium. of even this promise, in my present enjoyment of the earthly gift; and I should look out for something also of the heavenly, from Him who is the God of heaven as well as of earth. I should thus believe that the Christ who promises the higher blessings is (the Son) of Him who had also promised the lower ones; who had, moreover, afforded proofs of greater gifts by smaller ones; who had reserved for His Christ alone this revelation3475 3475 Præconium. of a (perhaps3476 3476 Si forte. ) unheard of kingdom, so that, while the earthly glory was announced by His servants, the heavenly might have God Himself for its messenger. You, however, argue for another Christ, from the very circumstance that He proclaims a new kingdom. You ought first to bring forward some example of His beneficence,3477 3477 Indulgentiæ. that I may have no good reason for doubting the credibility of the great promise, which you say ought to be hoped for; nay, it is before all things necessary that you should prove that a heaven belongs to Him, whom you declare to be a promiser of heavenly things. As it is, you invite us to dinner, but do not point out your house; you assert a kingdom, but show us no royal state.3478 3478 Regiam: perhaps “capital” or “palace.” Can it be that your Christ promises a kingdom of heaven, without having a heaven; as He displayed Himself man, without having flesh? O what a phantom from first to last!3479 3479 Omne. O hollow pretence of a mighty promise!
Anf-03 v.iv.vi.ix Pg 30 Isa. i. 2. yet He added not “from the womb.” Now, why should He have added so superfluously this phrase “from the womb” (as if there could be any doubt about any one’s having been born from the womb), unless the Holy Ghost had wished the words to be with especial care5609 5609 Curiosius. understood of Christ? “I have begotten Thee from the womb,” that is to say, from a womb only, without a man’s seed, making it a condition of a fleshly body5610 5610 Deputans carni: a note against Docetism. that it should come out of a womb. What is here added (in the Psalm), “Thou art a priest for ever,”5611 5611
Anf-03 vi.iv.ii Pg 5 Isa. i. 2. Moreover, in saying “Father,” we also call Him “God.” That appellation is one both of filial duty and of power. Again, in the Father the Son is invoked; “for I,” saith He, “and the Father are One.”8771 8771
Anf-03 v.iv.iv.vi Pg 14 Isa. i. 2, 3. We indeed, who know for certain that Christ always spoke in the prophets, as the Spirit of the Creator (for so says the prophet: “The person of our Spirit, Christ the Lord,”3169 3169 This seems to be a translation with a slight alteration of the LXX. version of Lam. iv. 20, πνεῦμα προσώπου ἡμῶν Χριστὸς Κύριος . who from the beginning was both heard and seen as the Father’s vicegerent in the name of God), are well aware that His words, when actually upbraiding Israel, were the same as those which it was foretold that He should denounce against him: “Ye have forsaken the Lord, and have provoked the Holy One of Israel to anger.”3170 3170
Anf-03 v.iv.v.xxi Pg 36 Isa. lvii. i. When does this more frequently happen than in the persecution of His saints? This, indeed, is no ordinary matter,4291 4291 We have, by understanding res, treated these adjectives as nouns. Rigalt. applies them to the doctrina of the sentence just previous. Perhaps, however, “persecutione” is the noun. no common casualty of the law of nature; but it is that illustrious devotion, that fighting for the faith, wherein whosoever loses his life for God saves it, so that you may here again recognize the Judge who recompenses the evil gain of life with its destruction, and the good loss thereof with its salvation. It is, however, a jealous God whom He here presents to me; one who returns evil for evil. “For whosoever,” says He, “shall be ashamed of me, of him will I also be ashamed.”4292 4292 Anf-02 vi.iv.iv.xxi Pg 52.1
