The _Ecclesiastical History_ of Eusebius cannot have been completed later than A.D. 325, but the earlier books were probably written about A.D. 313, soon after the Edict of Milan.

[15] If Zahn is right in thinking that Clement knew, and perhaps commented on, the Epistle of James, it may have become known in Alexandria somewhat earlier. A few passages in Clement have possible reminiscences of James; _e.g._ in _Strom._ II. v. he says of Abraham that he is found to have been expressly called the "friend" of God (James ii. 23); and in _Strom._ VI. xviii., in connexion with loving one's neighbour (the βασιλικὸς νόμος of James ii. 8), he speaks of being βασιλικοί (Zahn, _Geschichte des Neutestamentlichen Kanons_, I., pp. 322, 323--Erlangen, 1888). The _Hypotyposeis_, in which Clement perhaps treated of the Catholic Epistles, were written after he left Alexandria (_Ibid._, p. 29). [16] Or, more literally, "a right strawy Epistle"--"eine rechte strohern Epistel.... Denn sie doch keine evangelische Art an sich hat" (_Luther's Werke_, ed. Gustav Pfizer, Frankfurt, 1840, p. 1412; see also pp. 1423, 1424, and Westcott _On the Canon_, 3rd ed., pp. 448-54).
