1-3, xiii.6.xxx.15, Is.xl.26, 27, and the combined passage, Num.xii.6 and Ex.xxiii.11.There are several repetitions, but these occur too near to each other to permit of any inference.
Our examination of the Old Testament quotations in Justin is greatly facilitated by the collection and discussion of them in Credner's Beitraege [Endnote 39:1], a noble example of that true patient work which is indeed the reverse of showy, but forms the solid and well-laid foundation on which alone genuine knowledge can be built.

Credner has collected and compared in the most elaborate manner the whole of Justin's quotations with the various readings in the MSS.

of the LXX; so that we may state our results with a much greater confidence than in any other case (except perhaps Clement of Rome, where we have the equally accurate and scholarly guidance of Dr.Lightfoot [Endnote 40:1]) that we are not led astray by imperfect materials.

I have availed myself freely of Credner's collection of variants, indicating the cases where the existence of documentary (or, in some places, inferential) evidence for Justin's readings has led to the quotation being placed in a different class from that to which it would at first sight seem to belong.

I have also, as hitherto, not assumed an absolutely strict standard for admission to the first class of 'exact' quotations.
