The Conflict of Religions in the Early Roman Empire Part 41

[130] _Strom._ vii, 6. Cf. _Paed._ i, 4, 2. _apolutos eis t panteles anthropinon pathon_.

[131] _Strom._ v, 40, 3.

[132] _Strom._ v, 7, 7-8.

[133] _Protr._ 6, 1-2, _touto monon apolauon hemon h sozometha_.

[134] _Protr._ 6, 5.

[135] _Protr._ 7, 3.

[136] The references are (in order) _Paed._ i, 55; i, 53, 2; i, 59, 1; ii, 118, 5; _Protr._ 120, 2.

[137] _Strom._ iii, 49, 1-3, _oude anthropos en koinos_.

[138] _Strom._ vii, 93.

[139] See _Protevangelium Jacobi_, 19, 20 (in Tischendorf's _Evangelia Apocrypha_, p. 36), a work quoted in the 4th century by Gregory of Nyssa, and possibly the source of this statement of Clement's.

Tischendorf thinks it may also have been known to Justin. See also _pseudo-Matthei evangelium_, 13 (Tischendorf, p. 75), known to St Jerome.

[140] _Strom._ vi, 71, 2. A strange opinion of Valentinus about Jesus eating may be compared, which Clement quotes without dissent in _Strom._ iii, 59, 3. See p. 249, n. 4.

[141] Printed in Dindorf's edition, vol. iii, p. 485.

[142] _Strom._ vi, 151, 3. Cf. Celsus, p. 249, and Tert. _de carne Christi_, 9, _Adeo nec humanae honestatis corpus fuit_; Tertullian however is far from any such fancies as to Christ's body not being quite human, see p. 340.

[143] _Strom._ iv, 86, 2, 3; contrast Tertullian's att.i.tude in _de Fuga in Persecutione_, etc.

[148] _Strom._ vi, 98, 1.

[149] Cf. _Strom._ i, 173; iv, 153, 2; _Paed._ i, 70, _he gar kolasis ep' agatho ka ep' opheleia tou kolazomenon_.

[150] Cf. J. B. Mayor, Pref. to _Stromateis_, vii, p. xl.

[161] _Strom._ ii, 104, 2, 3, with reff. to Paul _Gal._ 6, 14; and Odyssey, 2, 406. Other pa.s.sages in which the notion occurs are _Strom._ iv, 149, 8; vii, 56, 82. Augustine has the thought--all the Fathers, indeed, according to Harnack. See Mayor's note on _Strom._ vii, 3. It also comes in the _Theologia Germanica_.

[162] _Strom._ iv. 62, 4; 58, 3; the _arete_ in _Paed._ i, 10, 1.

[163] _Paed._ ii, 46, 1.

[164] _Strom._ ii, 139, 5.

[165] _Strom._ ii, 140, 1, a very remarkable utterance.

[166] _Strom._ vii, 70, end.

[167] _Paed._ ii, 83, 1,

_tois de bebamekosi skopos he paidopoiia, telos de he euteknia_. Cf.

Tertullian, _adv. Marc._ iv, 17, on the impropriety of G.o.d calling us children if we suppose that he _n.o.bis filios facere non permisit auferendo connubium_. The opposite view, for purposes of argument perhaps, in _de exh. cast.i.tatis_, 12, where he ridicules the idea of producing children for the sake of the state.
