EXPLANATORY NOTES.

[The figures in parentheses refer to paragrafs of the syntax of my 'First Germanic Bible', when preceded by S.; to paragrafs of this grammar, when preceded by Gr.]

I. FROM THE GOSPEL OF ST. MATTHEW.

Chap. V, 17. =ni hugjaiþ=; prohibitiv optativ (S., 91, (2)).--=qêmjau=; opt. in a final object clause (S., 93).--=gataíran=, _to tear_ or _break completely, destroy_; =usfulljan=, _to fulfil_. Both =gat.= and =usf.= ar infinitivs of purpose (S., 114), the prefixes =ga= and =us= being intensiv. 18. =usleiþiþ himins jah aírþa=; two subj. nominativs with a sg. v. (S., 5, n. 1). 19. =saei=; rel. prn. (Gr., 157; S., 60).--=þizô=; dem. prn., not art. (S., 63).--=gataíriþ= (prs. ind.) =.....laisjai= (prs. opt.); the first denoting a fact, the second a possibility (S., 99, c): _whosoever breaks and 'should' teach_.--=minnista=; an exceptional case of a weak adj. without the art.--=þiudangardjai himinê=; without the art. (in the Grk. text τῇ....τῶν).

20. =managizô= (n. compar. uzed as sb.) =izwaraizôs garaíhteins=, _more of your righteousness than of [the righteousness of] the scribes_.--=þau= (conj.), _than_ =...þau= (adv.), _in any case_; =ni þau=, _in no case_.--=qimiþ in þiudangardjai=; the dativ after =qiman in= and similar vs. of 'motion towards' is distinctivly Gothic (S., 55). 21. =qiþan ist=; stands for the Grk. aor. (S., 87, n., c) = imperf. in English.--=maúrþrjais=; the hort. opt. for the second pers. fut. in Grk.--=waírþiþ=; the prs. for the Grk. fut. (S., 86, (3)).--=skula= w. dat., _a detter_ or _subject to_ (S., 35, (2)). 22. =ik=; the personal prn. is uzed with a v. for the sake of emfasis (S., 2, n. 1).--=ƕazuh môdags=; for πᾶς ὁ w. a ptc.--=brôþr seinamma=; dat. after =môdags=: _angry with_ (lit. '_to_'; S., 36, (3)).--=gaqumþai=, _council_, from =gaqiman=, _to cum together_.--=dwala= (voc.); weak adj. uzed as sb.--=skula in gaíaínnan=; =in= denoting 'direction' 'in regard to'; the expression seems to be an imitation of the corresponding Grk. passage: ἔνοχος ἔσται εὶς τὴν γέενναν.

23. =jabai nu baírais...gamuneis= (Gr., 200, n. 1; and 196); a conditional sentence, the vs. of the protasis being in the opt., those of the apodosis in the imper. (S., 102, e).--=aibr=; s. 'Vocabulary'.--=þeins=; attributes generally follow their sb. (S., 10, n. 2).--=ƕa=; here indef. (Gr., 162, n. 2; S., 78, n. 2). 24. Here the apodosis begins.--=þô=; the art. is uzed, because the sacrifice (=aibr=) is again mentiond (as =giba=) (S., 67).--=þeina=; for its strong inflection, s. Gr. 122, n. 1.--=brôþr þeinamma=; dat. after =gasibjôn= (S., 43). 25. =andastauin þeinamma=; dat. after =waíla hugjands= (S., 41).--=ibai=, _lest_, lit. _perhaps_, which sense is also exprest by the opt. =atgibai=.--=stauin=; from =staua=, m. (Gr., 108; not f.; Gr., 97).--=in karkara gal.=; =gal. in= w. acc., more frequently w. dat.; see =qimiþ in=, abuv; =jah galagjaza=, _and [then] thou wilt be cast_. 26. =usgaggis..usgibis=; the first prs. expresses the first, the second the past future.--=minnistan=; this word does not exactly answer ἔσχατον (which Wulfila in other places renders by =aftuma=, =aftumists=, =spêdiza=, =spêdists=, =spêdumists=). It is not impossibl, however, that =kintus= ment not one particular coin (or mezure), but any coin (or mezure) of litl value.

27. For the tenses and opt. mood, see 21, abuv. 28. =saei saíƕiþ=; ind. in a rel. clause for a Grk. ptc. (S., 99).--=du lustôn=; inf. of purpose after =du= (S., 144).--=izôs=; gen. after =lustôn= (S., 26).--=gahôrinôda= (For the Grk. aor.; S., 87, (3)) =izai=; instrumental dat. of association (S., 52, (1), c). 29. =marzjai=; opt. necessitated by the sense, not by the conj. =jabai= (S., 102).--=usstigg ita jah waírp=; the order of words is Grk.; in Engl. we repeat the object 'it' after the second v. (=waírp=).--=gadriusai in gaíaínnan=; =gadr. in= w. acc.; onse (Lu. 8, 7) it takes the dat.; comp. =qiman in=, chap. V, 20, abuv. 30. =taíhswô þeina handus=; comp. the sequence of words (without the art.) with the similar expression (with the art.) in 29, abuv.--=þô=, _this, that_; but αὐτήν in Grk.--=batizô ist þus ei=, etc.; the dependent clause after =batizô ist= is sumtimes an acc. w. inf. (S., 113); =þus= is dat. of advantage (S., 36, (4)).--=fraqistnai....gadriusai=; both optativs imply possibility (S., 103). 31. =-uh þan=; both particls (= =þan= alone) ar here continuativ: _but farther, also_.--=saei aflêtai qên=; opt. in a rel. clause which does not contain a statement of the speaker, but of sum one else (cp. verse 32, below); =qên= is less definit here than in the following verse, where =seina= is emfatic, and =qên seina= means as much as '_his legitimate wife_'.--=gibai=; hort. opt. (S., 91, (2)).--=afstassais bôkôs=, _a writing_ (lit. _letters_; cp. the Latin 'littera': 'litterae') _of divorcement_ (lit. '_standing off_'; cp. the G. 'abstand' in the sense of 'desistence'). 32. =saei aflêtiþ.....taujiþ=; the vs. ar in the ind. mood, because they contain the speaker's statements (as opposed to the preceding ones).--=izê=; for =izei= (Gr., 157, n. 3). 33. =ufarswarais...usgibais=; hort. opt. (S., 91, (2)).--=fraujin=; without the articl, when signifying _God_ (S., 68, n. 2. The Grk. text has τῷ). 34. =swaran=; objectiv inf. after =qiþan=, _to say_, with the sense of 'commanding' (S., 110).--=guþs=; gen. in its abbreviated form (Gr., 94, n. 3). 35. =baúrgs=; without the art., as in Grk. 36. =tagl=, _a singl hair_; =skuft=, _the hairs_ collectivly. 37. =sijaiþ-þan= (for =sijaih þan=, for =sijai-uh þan=; see Gr., 62, n. 3), _but ... shall be_.--=þata= (art.) =managizô=; n. compar. uzed as sb.: lit. '_the more_', i. e. _what is more_.--=þaim=; dat. as abl. (S., 54, 3), after the compar. =managizô= (= =þau= w. nom.; cp. the Grk. gen. and the Lt. abl. in such cases).--=ubilin=; dat. of the n. sg. =ubilô= uzed as sb. 38. =und=, _for, in return for_, w. dat.; in other senses, and more frequently, w. acc. 39. =andstandan=; inf., as in verse 34.--=allis=; adverbial gen., from the adj. =alls=, _at all_, without equivalent in the Grk. text. Wulfila probably inserted it according to verse 34, where the Grk. text shows ὅλως.--=þamma unsêljin=; weak adj. n. uzed as sb.; see =ubilin= in 37, abuv.--=ƕas=; here indef., as in 23, abuv.--=stautai=; opt., as in 29, abuv; likewise the imper. =wandei= in the apodosis.--=jah=, _also_. 40. =jah=, _and_.--=þamma wiljandin=; a participial construction, as in Grk. (τῷ θέλοντι).--=niman=; complimentary inf. after =wiljandin= (as in 42, below; S., 109). 41. =ananauþjai..gaggais=; the prs. opt. in protasis and apodosis (S., 102, a).--=rasta aina=; acc. expressing extent of space (S., 15, (2), β); =rasta= (for μίλιον, the Roman _mile_), lit. _'rest', place of resting, a stage or station_, also _the distance between two stages_. 42. =þamma wiljandin=; dat. as abl. after =uswandjais= (S., 54, (1), where =us= should be inserted after =af=).--=leiƕan= (complementary inf.; S., 109) =sis=, _to borrow_; =leiƕan=, _to lend_. 43. =frijôs...fiais fiand.....frijôþ fijands=; these words and several others ar found both with and without =j= (Gr., 10, n. 4); =fiand= (=fijand=), acc. of =fiands= (=fijands=), _enemy_, lit. _hating_, prsp. of =fi(j)an=, _to hate_ (Gr., 115). 44. =þiuþjaiþ þans wrikandans=; _bless ye_ (= _treat wel_; for the dat. after =þiuþjan=, s. S., 45, page 246, below).--=bi=, _concerning, for_.--=usþriutandans=; acc. of the prs. ptc. (Gr., 133) of =usþriutan=, the =us-= being intensiv; =-þriutan= = '-trude' in 'obtrude'. 45. =ei waírþaiþ sunjus=; =ei=, _that, in order that_; =waírþaiþ=, prs. opt. in a final clause (S., 96, a).--=in himinam=; adv. frase uzed substantivly after the art. (=þis=).--=urranneiþ=; =ur-= from =us=; Gr., 24, n. 2; 78, n. 4.--=rigneiþ=; from =rignjan=, factitiv of =rign=, n., _rain_. 46. =ƕô mizdônô=; the interr. =ƕô= agrees with the following gen. in gender.--=niu= (i. e. =ni-u=); interr. particl.--=þai þiudô=, _the (= those) of the Gentiles_, = _the Gentiles_; =þiudô= is gen. pl. of =þiuda=, _peple_. 47. =þans frijônds izwarans=, _the frends (of) yours, = your frends_; =frijônds= is sb. in form (Gr., 115) and meaning, while =þans frijôndans= stil has its verbal force; =izwarans= is a poss. prn. acc. pl. agreeing with =frijônds=, but =izwis= is a personal prn. acc. pl. guvernd by =frijôndans=.--=ƕê=; instr. case of =ƕa=, n. of =ƕas= (Gr., 159; S., 51).--=managizô=; compar. after =ƕê= (S., 51). 48. =jus=; for the personal prn. with a vb., see verse 22, abuv.--=swaswê atta izwar sa in himinam= is the subject, not =sa=, =sa in himinam= being an attribute of =atta izwar=, and may be renderd by a rel. clause in English.

Chap. VI. 1. =taujan=; complimentary inf. after =atsaíƕiþ= (2nd pers. pl. imper.).--=du saíƕan im= prop. a gerundiv construction, _to be seen by them_, lit. '_for them to see_'.

(Cp. O. Luecke, 'Absolute Participia im Gotischen, etc.'; and E. Bernhardt, 'Gotische Grammatik', p. 116). Sum Latin manuscripts hav 'te facientem'.

Gr., 196.--=bidjaiþ=; opt. in a temporal clause. 9. =bidjaiþ=; hort. opt. (S., 91, (2)).--=atta unsar þu=; voc. accumpanied by =þu= (for the Greek art.
