340 “Clement of Alexandria says that Peter, James and John after our
Lord’s ascension were not ambitious of dignity, honoured though they
had been by the preference of their Master, but chose James the Just
as Bishop of Jerusalem.” Dr Salmon, “Introduction to the New
Testament,” p. 565.
341 “This James whom the ancients ... surnamed the Just.” Eusebius,
_Eccl. Hist._ 6, ii. c. 1.
342 John xvi. 7, 8.
343 Acts xvi. 6-8.
344 Philippians ii. 13.
345 Matth. xviii. 21.
346 Romans v. 8.
347 1 Cor. xv. 44.
348 The harvest in Palestine ripens at different times in different
localities; but as a general rule the barley-harvest may be
considered as taking place from the middle to the close of April,
and the wheat-harvest about a fortnight later; see Robinson,
_Palestine_, Vol. 1. p. 431 (ed. 2), and compare Stanley,
_Palestine_, p. 240, note (ed. 2). Note taken from Bishop Ellicott’s
Historical Lectures on the “Life of our Lord,” page 106.
349 John iv. 6. The marginal rendering of the Revised Version is “Jesus
... sat _as he was_ by the well.” The words in italics answer to
“thus,” οὕτως. This means that He did not call for His cloke and
wrap it round Him, as in winter He would have done. This is clearly
eye-witness narration.
350 This _glorifying_ consisted not in its gaining Him glory in the
common sense but in its being an event leading Him to the Cross, to
the fullest abandonment to His Father’s will. This is the true
glory. Compare John xii. 28, xxi. 19.
