In the translation, the change recommended, on\r\nhigh authority, of Αὐγούστου into Τιβερίου in the last clause, is\r\nadopted, as on the whole the best way of solving the unquestionable\r\ndifficulty here. If we retain Αὐγούστου, the clause must then be made\r\nparenthetical, and the sense would be: “For the teaching of the Lord on\r\nHis advent, beginning with Augustus and Tiberius (in the middle of the\r\ntimes of Augustus), was completed.” The objection to this (not by any\r\nmeans conclusive) is, that it does not specify the end of the period.</p>\n<p>The first 15 years of the life of our Lord were the last 15 of the\r\nreign of Augustus; and in the 15th year of the reign of his successor\r\nTiberius our Lord was baptized. Clement elsewhere broaches the singular\r\nopinion, that our Lord’s ministry lasted only a year, and consequently\r\nthat He died in the year in which He was baptized. As Augustus reigned,\r\naccording to one of the chronologies of Clement, 43, and according to\r\nthe other 46 years 4 months 1 day, and Tiberius 22 or 26 years 6 months\r\n19 days, the period of the teaching of the gospel specified above began\r\nduring the reign of Augustus, and ended during the reign of Tiberius.</p>\n</div>","source_sha256":"c35077683d75abe553cc6ef5d3ef5a1a978f07dfbcf4bad5c3d56302ad03dc19","source_url":"https://www.gutenberg.org/cache/epub/73020/pg73020-images.html#Footnote_1311","text_sha256":"f69e0707e47aaf63b836fdc3bcf77ba0d4926070a8b2abe0a8a66b83d7108325","verified":false,"work_id":null}
