Note 6 — THE “TEACHING OF THE TWELVE APOSTLES”
Reading edition
Cp. Matt. v, 44; Prov. xxv, 21; Talmud refs. in C.M. 406; and Test. of Twelve Patr. Dan. iii, iv; Gad, iii–vi. Canon Spence notes that the resemblance between the Testaments and the Didachê is “very marked.” Note that in the Revised Version the text in Matthew is cut down—a recognition of tampering, in imitation of Luke vi, 27–8. ↑
