Many of Justin's quotations are very long, and it seemed only right that in these the standard should be somewhat, though very slightly, relaxed.

The chief point that we have to determine is the extent to which the writers of the first century were in the habit of freely paraphrasing or quoting from memory, and it may as a rule be assumed that all the instances in the first class and most (not quite all) of those in the second do not admit of such an explanation.

I have been glad in every case where a truly scientific and most impartial writer like Credner gives his opinion, to make use of it instead of my own.

I have the satisfaction to think that whatever may be the value of the other sections of this enquiry, this at least is thoroughly sound, and based upon a really exhaustive sifting of the data.
The quotations given below are from the undoubted works of Justin, the Dialogue against Tryphon and the First Apology; the Second Apology does not appear to contain any quotations either from the Old or New Testament.
_Exact._ | _Slightly | _Variant._ | _Remarks._ | variant._ | | | | | |Apol.
