11.  And He is called by two names, Jesus Christ; Jesus, because He saves,—Christ, because He is a Priest Compare Eusebius (Eccl. Hist. I. cap. iii.), a passage which Cyril seems to have followed in his explanation of the names ‘Jesus’ and ‘Christ.’.  And knowing this the inspired Prophet Moses conferred these two titles on two men distinguished above all For the common reading ἐγκρίτοις πάντων Cod. Mon. I. has ἐκκρίτοις π. which is required both by the construction and the sense.  The change may have been caused by the occurrence of ἐγκρίτων just below.:  his own successor in the government, Auses Eusebius (u.s):  “His successor, therefore, who had not hitherto borne the name Jesus, but had been called by another name, Auses, which had been given him by his parents, he now called Jesus, bestowing the name upon him as a gift of honour far greater than any kingly diadem.”  Auses is a common corruption of the name Oshea.  See the note on the passage of Eusebius in this series., he renamed Jesus; and his own brother Aaron he surnamed Christ Eusebius:  “He consecrated a man high-priest of God, in so far as that was possible, and him he called Christ.”  Cf. Lev. iv. 5, 16; vi. 22:  ὁ ἱερεὺς ὁ Χριστός, that by two well-approved men he might represent at once both the High Priesthood, and the Kingship of the One Jesus Christ who was to come.  For Christ is a High Priest like Aaron; since He glorified not Himself to be made a High Priest, but He that spake unto Him, Thou art a Priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek Heb. v. 4, 5, 6.  Cyril omits from his quotation the reference to Ps. ii. 7:  “Thou art My Son:  this day have I begotten Thee.”.  And Jesus the son of Nave was in many things a type of Him.  For when he began to rule over the people, he began from Jordan Josh. iii. 1., whence Christ also, after He was baptized, began to preach the gospel.  And the son of Nave appoints twelve to divide the inheritance Ib. xiv. 1.; and twelve Apostles Jesus sends forth, as heralds of the truth, into all the world.  The typical Jesus saved Rahab the harlot when she believed:  and the true Jesus says, Behold, the publicans and the harlots go before you into the kingdom of God Matt. xxi. 31..  With only a shout the walls of Jericho fell down in the time of the type:  and because Jesus said, There shall not be left here one stone upon another Matt. xxiv. 2., the Temple of the Jews opposite to us is fallen, the cause of its fall not being the denunciation but the sin of the transgressors.
