EARLY CHRISTIAN LITERATURE AND ART
LITERATURE.
The following examples from primitive Christian writings bear more or
less directly upon this book.
NEW TESTAMENT. Compare B.V.M.'s words in St. Luke i. 38 with Daniel's at
the end of v. 9, ??. With John xviii. 35 compare Bel 38, ????? and ??, as to
a Gentile being taken for a Jew. Moreover the phrase ?„??° ???µ???¬?????±?„?± ??‘????¶??
in Acts xvii. 23 is very like a reminiscence of Bel 27, ??, end. But A.
Scholz's idea that our Lord's words in John x. 9 are based on vv. 3, 6,
13 has little likelihood: "gegens?¤tzlich so nahe verwandt, dass in den
Evangelium darauf Bezug genommen sein k?¶nnte" (note on v. 13).
IREN?†US (?? 200) in IV. ix. 1 quotes vv. 4, 5, 24, as coming from Daniel,
apparently without the smallest misgiving. His quotations accord with ??
as against ?????, v. 4 being the same in both. As Sch??rer says in Hauck's
_Encyclop?¦dia_ (I. 640): "Iren?¤us benuzt die Uebersetzung des Theodotion
und so alle Folgenden." But see under _Cyprian_.
CLEMENT OF ALEXANDRIA (?? 220) refers, _Strom.
