Dr. Westcott does not claim any (On the Canon, 1875, p. 48, note 2). Dr. Lightfoot simply assigns the reference to the Psalm and 1 Sam. 13:14.

[570:2] Cf. Westcott, On the Canon, p. 48, n. 2. (The references to Dr. Westcott's work on the Canon up to the present point are always to the 2nd ed., 1866, and those henceforward to the 4th ed., 1875, except where otherwise specified.)

[571:1] The same passage is quoted, Acts 2:21. Cf. Ephes. 1:20-21; Philip. 2:9 f.; 1 John 5:13 f.

[571:2] Lardner, Works, ii., p. 56. This is not advanced by Kirchhofer, nor does Dr. Westcott refer to it. Even Hefele does not suggest a reference.

[572:1] Dr. Westcott does not claim either this or the second (On the Canon, p. 48, note 2), and Hefele merely suggests comparison with Acts (Patr. Ap., p. 103, p. 98).

Dean Alford says: "Nor are there any references in Justin Martyr, which, fairly considered, belong to this book" (Greek Test., 1871, Proleg., ii., p. 20). Dr. Westcott says: "The references to the Acts are uncertain"; and he merely illustrates this by referring to the first of the passages discussed in the text. (On the Canon, 1875, p. 168, note 3).

[576:6] Lardner, Credibility, Works, ii. 142; Westcott, On the Canon, 4th ed., p. 205. Dr. Westcott, however, merely says: "There are forms of expression corresponding to passages in ...and in the Acts which can scarcely be attributed to chance."

[577:5] Zahn, Th. Stud. u. Krit., 1866, p. 680 f. Dr. Lightfoot says: "But there are indications, however indecisive, that Papias did use the writings of St. Luke." And further on, after quoting the passage about Judas, and mentioning the view of Apollinaris that it reconciles the accounts in the first Gospel and in the Acts, he continues: "It is too much to assume that Papias himself repeated the tradition with this aim, but the resemblance to the account in the Acts is worthy of notice" (Contemporary Rev., August, 1876, p. 415).

[578:3] Credibility, etc., Works, ii., p. 133. Kirchhofer makes a similar statement, Quellens., p. 163, anm. 1. Dr. Lightfoot says: "Other points of affinity to the Acts are his mention of Justus Barsabas, and his relations with the daughters of Philip" (Contemp. Rev., August, 1876, p. 415). Such "indications" he may indeed well characterise as "indecisive." Dr. Westcott says: "Dr. Lightfoot notices some slight indications of Papias' use of the writings of St. Luke (in the article quoted above), but I do not think that much stress can be laid on them" (On the Canon, 4th ed., p. 77, note 1).

[578:4] Dr. Westcott merely speaks of "coincidences of language more or less evident with the Acts," etc., referring to c. 3: (Acts 17: 24-25) as "worthy of remark" (Canon, p. 91); but he does not include it in the Synopsis of Historical Evidence, p. 584.

[581:2] Dr. Lightfoot, speaking of the passage we are discussing, says: "Will he (author of Supernatural Religion) boldly maintain that the writers had before them another Acts containing words identical with our Acts, just as he supposes, etc. … Or will he allow this account to have been taken from Acts 7:60, with which it coincides?" (Contemp. Review, August, 1876, p. 41). The question is here answered.
