_ 33 Apol._ i. 40.
34 The word used in the Gospel is σύρω, to drag along, but Justin’s
word is merely the same verb with the addition of δια, διασύρω, to
worry, or harass with abuse. Although the English equivalent is thus
changed, and conceals the analogy of the two passages, the addition
of δια, strictly considered, cannot so change the meaning of σύρω,
but rather should imply a continuance of the same action. This is
also Dr. Martineau’s view.
35 Καὶ γάρ, ὡς εἶπεν ὁ προφήτης, διασύροντες αὐτὸν ἐκάθισαν ἐπὶ βήματος
καὶ εἶπον; Κρῖνον ἡμῖν. _Apol._ i. 35.
36 Ἔλεγον, Σύρωμεν τὸν υἱὸν τοῦ θεοῦ, ... καὶ ἐκάθισαν αὐτὸν ἐπὶ
καθέδραν κρίσεως, λέγοντες Δικαίως κρῖνε, βασιλεῦ τοῦ Ἰσραήλ.
_Evang. Petri_, 6. Hilgenfeld says regarding this, “Was fehlt noch
zu dem Beweise, dass Justinus, wie ich schon 1850 ausgeführt habe,
das Petrus-Evg. benutzt hat?” _Zeitschr._ 1893, ii. 251.
37 This passage has been discussed at some length by Dr. Martineau
(_Nineteenth Century_, October 1893, pp. 647 ff.), in controversy
with Mr. T. Rendel Harris (_Contemp. Rev._ August 1893, pp. 234
ff.), as it has frequently before been. Dr. Martineau seems to be in
the right upon all points in connection with it.

40 Swete, _l.c._ p. xxxiv. Mr. Rendel Harris says: “I regard it as
certain that the reading λαχμὸς implies connection between Justin
and Peter, either directly or through a third source accessible to
both.” _Contemp. Rev._ August 1893, p. 231.
