20 Juvenal, Satir. vi. 546. “Aere minuto qualiacunque voles Judaei somnia vendunt.” The Emperors, later, issued formal laws against those who charmed away diseases (Digest. lib. i. tit. 13, i. 1). Josephus tells the story of Eleazar dispossessing a demon by incantations. De Bello Jud. lib. vii. 6; Antiq. lib. viii. c. 2. 21 Hist. Eccl. i. 11. 22 Contr. Cels. i. 47; and again, ii. 13: “This (destruction), as Josephus writes, ‘happened upon account of James the Just, the brother of Jesus, called the Christ;’ but in truth on account of Christ Jesus, the Son of God.” 23 Acts xxiii. 24 Bibliothec. cod. 33. 25 Plin. Hist. Nat. v. 17; Epiphan. adv. Haeres. xix. 1. 26 Epiphan. adv. Haeres. x. 27 For information on the Essenes, the authorities are, Philo, Περὶ τοῦ πάντα σπουδαῖον εἶναι ἐλεύθερον, and Josephus, De Bello Judaico, and Antiq. 28 Compare Luke x. 4; John xii. 6, xiii. 29; Matt. xix. 21; Acts ii. 44, 45, iv. 32, 34, 37. 29 Compare Matt. vi. 28‐34; Luke xii. 22‐30. 30 Compare Matt. v. 34. 31 Compare Matt. vi. 25, 31; Luke xii. 22, 23. 32 Compare Matt. xv. 15‐22. 33 Compare Matt. vi. 1‐18. 34 From אסא, meaning the same as the Greek Therapeutae. 35 Compare Luke x. 25‐37; Mark vii. 26. 36 Matt. iv. 16, v. 14, 16, vi. 22; Luke ii. 32, viii. 16, xi. 23, xvi. 8; John i. 4‐9, iii. 19‐21, viii. 12, ix. 5, xi. 9, 10, xii. 35‐46. 37 Luke viii. 10; Mark iv. 12; Matthew xiii. 11‐15. 38 Clem. Homil. xix. 20. 39 Compare Matt. xv. 3, 6. 40 The reference to salt as an illustration by Christ (Matt. v. 13; Mark ix. 49, 50; Luke xiv. 34) deserves to be noticed in connection with this. 41 Clem.

Homil. vii. 8. 51 Col. ii. 21. 52 Gal. iv. 10. When it is seen in the Clementines how important the observance of these days was thought, what a fundamental principle it was of Nazarenism, I think it cannot be doubted that it was against this that St. Paul wrote. 53 Col. ii. 16. 54 Clement. Homil. xix. 22. 55 Gal. v. 2‐4. 56 1 Cor. v. 1. 57 Euseb. Hist. Eccl. iii. 29. 58 _Ibid._
