Note 100 — Chapter IV · BIRTH AND EARLIEST EVENTS OF THE LIFE OF JESUS.
George Eliot translation
As in Matt. ii. 11 it is said of the magi τροσήνενκαν αὐτῷ—χρυσὸν καὶ λίβανον: so in Isa. lx. 6 (LXX.): ἥξουσί, φέροντες χρυσίον, καὶ λίβανον οἴσουσι. The third present is in Matt. σμύρνα, in Isa. λίθος τίμιος. ↑
