[373] In his Commentary on St. Matt. xvi. 24:--[Greek: Dia pantos tou biou touto dei poiein. Dienekos gar, phesi, periphere ton thanaton touton, kai kath hemeran hetoimos eso pros sphagen] (vii. 557 b). Again, commenting on ch. xix. 21,--[Greek: Dei proegoumenos akolouthein to Christo toutesti, panta ta par autou keleuomena poiein, pros sphgas einai hetoimon, kai thanaton kathemerinin] (p. 629 e):--words which Chrysostom immediately follows up by quoting ch. xvi. 24 (630 a). [374] i. 949 b,--'_Quotidie_ (inquit Apostolus) _morior propter vestram salutem_. Et Dominus, juxta antiqua exemplaria, _Nisi quis tulerit crucem suam quotidie, et sequntus fuerit me, non potest meus esse discipulus_'--Commenting on St. Matt. x. 38 (vol. vii. p. 65 b), Jerome remarks,--'in alio Evangelio scribitur,--_Qui non accipit crucem suam quotidie_': but the corresponding place to St. Matt. x. 38, in the sectional system of Eusebius (Greek and Syriac), is St. Luke xiv. 27. [375] Viz. Evan. 473 (2^{pe}). [376] ii. 66 c, d. [377] See above, p. 175, note 2. [378] Proleg. p. cxlvi. [379] N.T. (1803), i. 368. [380] Lewis here agrees with Peshitto. [381] iv. 745. [382] In Ps. 501. [383] 229 and 236. [384] vii. 736: xi. 478. [385] ii. 1209. [386] 269. [387] 577. [388] i. 881. [389] _Ap._ Chrys. vi. 460. [390] _Ap_. Greg. Nyss. ii. 258. [391] Galland. vi. 53. [392] ii. 346. [393] ii. 261, 324. [394] _Ap._ Greg. Nyss. iii. 429. [395] i. 132. [396] The attentive student of the Gospels will recognize with interest how gracefully the third Evangelist St. Luke (ix. 5) has overcome this difficulty. [397] Augustine, with his accustomed acuteness, points out that St. Mark's narrative shews that after the words of 'Sleep on now and take your rest,' our Lord must have been silent for a brief space in order to allow His disciples a slight prolongation of the refreshment which his words had already permitted them to enjoy. Presently, He is heard to say,--'It is enough'--(that is, 'Ye have now slept and rested enough'); and adds, 'The hour is come. Behold, the Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.' 'Sed quia commemorata non est ipsa interpositio silentii Domini, propterea coartat intellectum, ut in illis verbis alia pronuntiatio requiratur.'--iii^{2}. 106 a, b. The passage in question runs thus:--[Greek: Katheidete to loipon kai anapauesthe. apechei; elthen he hora; idou, k.t.l.] [398] Those who saw this, explain the word amiss. Note the Scholion (Anon. Vat.) in Possinus, p. 321:--[Greek: apechei, toutesti, peplerotai, telos echei to kat' eme]. Last Twelve Verses, p. 226, note. [399] I retract unreservedly what I offered on this subject in a former work (Last Twelve Verses, &c., pp. 225, 226). I was misled by one who seldom indeed misleads,--the learned editor of the Codex Bezae (_in loco_). [400] So Peshitto. Lewis, _venit hora, appropinquat finis_. Harkleian, _adest consummatio, venit hora._
