The early fathers, who wrote in Greek, used the Greek Bible, as almost all of them were ignorant of Hebrew. Thus restricted; they naturally considered its parts alike, citing apocryphal and canonical in the same way. Accordingly, Irenæus(94) quotes Baruch under the name of “Jeremiah the prophet;”(95) and the additions to Daniel as “Daniel the prophet.”(96) Clement of Alexandria(97) uses the apocryphal books like the canonical ones, for explanation and proof indiscriminately. He is fond of referring to Baruch, which he cites upwards of twenty-four times in the second book of his _Pædagogus_, and in a manner to show that he esteemed it as highly as many other parts of the Old Testament. A passage from Baruch is introduced by the phrase,(98) “the divine Scripture says;” and another from Tobit by(99) “Scripture has briefly signified this, saying.” Assuming that Wisdom was written by Solomon, he uses it as canonical and inspired, designating it _divine_.(100) Judith he cites with other books of the Old Testament(101); and the Song of the three children in the furnace is used as Scripture.(102) Ecclesiasticus also is so treated.(103) Dionysius of Alexandria(104) cites Ecclesiasticus (xvi. 26), introducing the passage with “hear divine oracles.”(105) The same book is elsewhere cited, chapters xliii. 29, 30(106) and i. 8. 9.(107) So is Wisdom, vii. 15(108) and 25.(109) Baruch (iii. 12-15) is also quoted.(110) The fathers who wrote in Latin used some of the old Latin versions of which Augustine speaks; one of them, and that the oldest probably dating soon after the middle of the second century, being known to us as the _Itala_. As this was made from the Septuagint, it had the usual apocryphal books. Jerome’s critical revision or new version did not supplant the old Latin till some time after his death. Tertullian(111) quotes the Wisdom of Solomon expressly as Solomon’s;(112) and introduces Sirach by “as it is written.”(113) He cites Baruch as Jeremiah.(114) He also believes in the authenticity of the book of Enoch, and defends it as _Scripture_ at some length.(115) Cyprian often cites the Greek additions to the Palestinian canon. He introduces Tobit with the words “as it is written,”(116) or “divine Scripture teaches, saying;”(117) and Wisdom with, “the Holy Spirit shows by Solomon.”(118) Ecclesiasticus is introduced with, “it is written;”(119) and Baruch with, “the Holy Spirit teaches by Jeremiah.”(120) 1 and 2 Maccabees are used as Scripture;(121) as are the additions to Daniel.(122) The African fathers follow the Alexandrian canon without scruple. Hippolytus of Rome (about A.D. 220), who wrote in Greek, quotes Baruch as Scripture;(123) and interprets the additions to Daniel, such as Susanna, as Scripture likewise.(124)
