Notes and quotes.
§ I count the following
agreements between Matthew and
Luke against Mark:
- Matthew 12.1 has και
εσθιειν (and to eat)
and Luke 6.1 has και
ησθιον (and they ate)
where Mark 2.23 has no parallel.
- Matthew 12.2 and Luke 6.2 both have δε
(but or and) where Mark 2.24 has
και (and).
A common agreement.
- Matthew 12.2 and Luke 6.2 both have the aorist
ειπαν
(they said) where Mark 2.24 has the imperfect
ελεγον
(they were saying).
- Matthew 12.3 and Luke 6.3 each have the definite article
ο (the), the former as a change
of subject with δε,
the latter with the actual subject Ιησους (Jesus).
Mark 2.25 lacks the article.
- Matthew 12.3 and Luke 6.3 both use the aorist
ειπεν (he said)
where Mark uses the historic
present λεγει
(he says).
- Matthew 12.4 and Luke 6.4 have τοις
μετ
αυτου (those with him)
while Mark 2.26 uses a different preposition (entailing a different case
for the object of the preposition) in the expression
τοις
συν
αυτω (those with him).(
- Matthew 12.4 has
μονοις
(alone) and Luke 6.4 has
μονους
(alone) where Mark 2.26 has no parallel word.
§ From Epiphanius, Panarion 30.16, writing of the Ebionites
and the gospel according to the
Hebrews:
Ου
φασκουσι
δε
εκ
θεου
πατρος
αυτον
γεγεννησθαι,
αλλα
εκτισθαι,
ως
ενα
των
αρχαγγελων,
μειζονα
δε
αυτων
οντα,
αυτον
δε
κυριευειν
και
αγγελων
και
παντων
υπο
του
παντοκρατορος
πεποιημενων,
και
ελθοντα
και
υφηγησαμενον,
ως
το
παρ
αυτοις
κατα
Εβραιους
ευαγγελιον
καλουμενον
περιεχει,
οτι
Ηλθον
καταλυσαι
τας
θυσιας,
και
εαν
μη
παυσησθε
του
θυειν,
ου
παυσεται
αφ
υμων
η
οργη.
And they say that he was not engendered from God the father,
but created, as one of the archangels, but being greater than they are, and that he is
Lord both of angels and of all things made by the creator of all, and that he came also
to declare, as the gospel among them called according to the Hebrews has: I came to
abolish the sacrifices, and, if you do not cease to sacrifice, the wrath will not cease
from you.
