Luther has particular reference to the Elector's high rank. But it divides Ps. 147 into two; vv. 1-11 being counted as Ps. 146, and vv. 12-20 as Ps. 147; and so both versions agree again from Ps. 148 to 150. Luther harks back to his discussion of this point in the Preface, p. 113. Particular reference to the Elector. See pp. 147 ff. Cypr. de mortal. c. Vulgate reading. See pp. 149 f.
Crt. and Hel. &c. Crt. Matt. xxv. 41. Tert. Cypr. Hil. Hipp. and Origen in the Latin translation. Luke xii. 48. Luke xx. 24. On the other hand, he appears to have with them and other authorities, including Syr. Crt., the Agony in the Garden as given in Luke xxii, 43,44, which verses are omitted in MSS. of the best Alexandrine type.
So a, b, Iren., Vigil., Ambr., Jer. John vi. 39. Non perdam ex eo quicquam. Crt. John vi. 51. Et panis quem ego dedero pro salute mundi, caro mea est. Crt., Theb., Aeth., Orig., Cypr. John xii. 30. The instances that have been here given are all, or nearly all, false readings on the part of Tertullian. It is, of course, only as such that they are in point for the present enquiry.
Besides these there are some coincidences in form between quotations as they appear in Justin and in other writers, such as especially the Clementine Homilies. Iren. Cypr. A third meeting-point between Justin and the Clementines is afforded by a text which we shall have to touch upon when we come to speak of the fourth Gospel.
That in the ancient church, for a long time, the election of ministers remained in the power of the whole church or congregation, it is evident from Cypr., lib. 1, epist. 4, 68; August., epist. 106; Leo I., epist. 95; Socrat., lib. 4, cap. 30; and lib. 6, cap. 2; Possidon, in Vita Aug., cap. 4. The testimonies and examples themselves, for brevity’s cause, I omit.
John i. 13. Non ex sanguine nec ex voluntate carnis nec ex voluntate viri, sed ex deo natus est. Matthew, in Augustine, and three times in Irenaeus. John iii. 36. So b, e, g, Syr. Pst., Memph., Aeth., Iren., Cypr.; against a, c, d, f, ff, Syrr. Crt. and Hcl., etc. John v. 3, 4.
And that, in the ancient church, as bishops gave not ordination, so neither did they suspend nor depose any man without the common counsel, advice, and concurrence of the presbytery, yea, and sometimes of a synod, it is clear from Cypr.
