448 ἐν τῷ παραδείσῳ omitted. Possibly the whole verse was omitted. 449 οἷς ἐλάλησεν ὑμῖν, instead of ἐλάλησαν οἱ προφῆται. Volckmar thinks that in v. 19, “of Nazareth” was omitted, but neither St. Epiphanius nor Tertullian say so. 450 Tert. adv. Marcion, iv. 2. “Marcion evangelio scilicet suo nullum adscribit nomen.” 451 Ἕν ἐστι τὸ εὐαγγέλιον, ὃ ὁ Χριστὸς ἔγραψεν. 452 Rom. i. 16, xv. 19, 29; 1 Cor. ix. 12, 18; 2 Cor. iv. 4, ix. 13; Gal. i. 7. 453 Rom. i. 9. 454 Rom. i. 1, xv. 16; 1 Thess. ii. 2, 9; 1 Tim. i. 11. 455 Volckmar: Das Evangelium Marcions; Leipzig, 1852, p. 54. 456 Luke ii. 19, 51. 457 Luke i. 66. 458 John xix. 26. 459 This was some time prior to the composition of St. John’s Gospel. The first two chapters of St. Luke’s Gospel were written apparently by the same hand which wrote the rest. Similarities, identity of expression, almost prove this. Compare i. 10 and ii. 13 with viii. 37, ix. 37, xxiii. 1; also i. 10 with xiv. 17, xxii. 14; i. 20 with xxii. 27, and i. 20 with xii. 3, xix. 44; i. 22 with xxiv. 23; i. 44 with vii. 1, ix. 44; also i. 45 with x. 23, xi. 27, 28; also i. 48 with ix. 38; i. 66 with ix. 44; i. 80 with ix. 51; ii. 6 with iv. 2; ii. 9 with xxiv. 4; ii. 10 with v. 10; ii. 14 with xix. 18; ii. 20 with xix. 37; ii. 25 with xxiii. 50; ii. 26. with ix. 20. 460 The descent of the Holy Ghost in bodily shape explains why in iv. 1 he is said to have been full of the Holy Ghost. I suspect the narrative of the unction occurred here. This was removed to cut off occasion to Docetic error, and the gap was clumsily filled with an useless genealogy. 461 Ναζωραῖος for Ναζαρηνός omitted. 462 Tertul. adv. Marcion, iv. c. 25, “ut doctor de ea vita videatur consuluisse quae in lege promittitur longaeva.” 463 ὅταν ὄψησθε πάντας τοὺς δικαίους ἐν τῇ βασιλείᾳ τοῦ Θεοῦ, ὑμᾶς δὲ ἐκβαλλομένους καὶ κρατουμένους ἔξω.—Epiph. Schol. 40; Tertul. c. 30. 464 Luke xiii. 25‐30. 465 Matt. vii. 13. 466 Hist. of the Christian Religion, tr. Bohn, ii. p. 131. 467 παρέκοψε τό: λέγετε, ἀχρεῖοι δοῦλοί ἐσμεν: ὃ ὠφείλομεν ποιῆσαι πεποιήκαμεν, Sch. 47. 468 Baur calls it an “ungeschickte Zusatz.” 469 The Gospel is printed in Thilo’s Codex Apocryph. Novi Testamenti, Lips. 1832, T.I. pp. 401‐486. For critical examinations of it see Ritschl: Das Evangelium Marcions und das Kanonische Ev. Lucas, Tübingen, 1846.
