page 371 note 3 silba is is emphatic for simple silba = ; the usual order is here reversed, cf. Luke v. I : is silba; I Cor. xv. 28 αύτς υις: is silba sunus.

page 371 note 8 The Greek passive is sometimes represented by an active verb in Gothic, as in Rom. x. 10 γρ πıστεύεταı: hairto auk galaubeib; see G.-L., Gram., 177/6. Άπıστεῑσθαı ‘to be mistrusted, disbelieved’ harks back to the comment on John iii. 30 in section 1.

page 371 note 9 See the comment on section II.

page 371 note 10 The words are not by way of emendation, but they are implied; cf. Phil. iii. 4 καιπερ γὠ χων πεποιθησıν: jah pan ik habands trauain.

page 371 note 11 Seina for the MS. reading meina is imperative. See the comment on section II. The commentator doubtless intended seina (VI b 15) together with Pis waurkjandins (VI c 3) to apply to the Saviour.

page 372 note 12 In the Greek retroversion , νανTιρρητον (Acts xix. 36) both qualify . See comment on section II. Cf. Rom. xv. 14 πάσης , I Cor. i.5 (γνώσει(not in Gothic), I Cor. xiii. τν : all kunpi.

page 372 note 13 This is an example of the Hebraism (construct state) as in Luke xvi. 18 τÒν οіκονÓμον δıκιας: pana fauragaggjan inwindipos.

page 372 note 14 The words ὺμiν παρέχεıν δύναταı are comparable in both form and content with Acts xvii. 31 έν νδρι , πιστıν παρασχὼν ναστήσας αὐτν κ νεκρѽ;ν.

page 372 note 16 Anparleikein = τερτητα (Skeir. v c 5) should be spelt as one word (op. cit. pp. 53–4). The here postulated ν τερτητı is represented by the dative per se, comparable to the dative of price exemplified in I Cor. vii.23 wairpa galaubamma usbauhtai sijup: : pretio. Cf. Rom. 1. 25 (not in Gothic) μετλλαξαν τν λθεıαν ν ψεδεı.

page 372 note 17 Three Consecutive present participles without finite verb are intolerable, and as elsewhere a finite verb has been substituted for one of them in the Greek.

page 372 note 18 Not τıμν, as applicable to Nicodemus in Skeir. ii c 9 (N.T.S. VIII (1961), 49 n. 24), but δξαν, although Gothic N.T. usage requires wulpus, even when applied to Solomon (Matt. vi. 29), and so to Christ as in Luke ii. 32; John xvii. 5, 22, 24.Google Scholar

page 372 note 19 The incongruent gender of missaleiks (masc.) which qualifies weitwodeins (fem.) has been corrected in the Greek. The words recall I Pet. iv. 10 καλοι οіκονμοı ποıκιλης χρıτος .

page 373 note 20 The Gothic order is that of T.R. μνοντα ν μῑν C. A D Γ Δ Λ Π a e q; ν ύμῑν μνοντα Sin B L b c fff2 g l vg.

page 373 note 21 For οὑ μλλεı, expressing the future passive, Gothic N.T. usage requires skulds ist, as in Luke ix. 44 skulds ist atgiban μλλεı παραδδοσθαı (so Luke xix. II). But the impersonal skuld ist= will not stand in this context. Bernhardt was of the same opinion, for he adopted Vollmer's emendation skulds with the comment ‘der Zusammenhang zeigt, daβ skulds ist hier =μλλεı steht.’

page 373 note 22 See comment on section IV. ip is a main rendering of δ, but represents γρ three times in John, in the Epistles and in Skireins it is almost always preceded by uh- (not so in Matthew, Luke, Mark); auk pan is a double rendering; the sense demands γρ or , auk being the main rendering of γρ as pan is of , especially in John. See my Gothic Studies (Blackwell), passim.

page 373 note 23 Cf. II Tim. iv. 8 λοıπν πκεıτα μοı papro pan (paproh A) galagips ist mis. Ju (=) is pleonastic here, as elsewhere.
