Introd. To New Test. i. 207. Compare especially in LXX. Chapter 3:7, with Romans 12:16; 11, 12, with Hebrews 12:5, 6; 34, with James 4:6. 1 Peter 5:5; 10:12, with 1 Peter 4:8; 11:31, with 1 Peter 4:18; 25:6, 7, with Luke 14:8-10; 21, 22, with Romans 12:20; 26:11, with 2 Peter 2:22; 27:1, with James 4:13, 14. It is a marked distinction drawn between this Book and the Apocryphal Book of Wisdom, so similar in character; that from the latter no quotation can be adduced in the New Testament.
