Clement of Alexandria quotes the Book of Psalms more than any other Old Testament book and does so more frequently than any other early Christian author apart from from Origen. The aim of this article is to examine Clement’s use of the Psalter in his works. First, it demonstrates how Clement quotes from the Psalms, specifically what sort of introductory wording he uses. It is apparent that the Book of Psalms has many different functions for Clement: a tool of evangelisation, the word of God himself educating human beings, a Christian book of prayer, prophetic writing, a source of theology (providing evidence of God’s characteristics), and a model of morality. Second, the article attempts to characterize the specific role of the Psalms in individual works by Clement. It concludes that the Greek Psalter is quoted in all works except the homily Quis dives salvetur? Finally, the article highlights the verses of the Psalms or the particularly frequent and common themes of the Psalter that are key to Clement’s theological thinking (these are Ps 1:1–6; Ps 18/19, especially v. 5; Ps 33/34:9; Ps 81/82:6; the theme of the “new song” and the image of “the rod of punishment”).

According to the testimony of Eusebius, Clement of Alexandria wrote, in addition to the Stromata, a collection of texts equal in size. These are the eight­‑volume Hypotyposes, commenting on selected scriptural passages from both the Old and New Testaments. While the Stromata (with the exception of the eighth book) was preserved in its entirety, only fragments were preserved from the Hypotyposes. The aim of the present paper is threefold: (1) to summarise how many fragments of Clement’s lost writing Hypotyposes we have, paying close attention to those fragments which are not part of Stählin’s edition – namely, the fragment discovered by Di Benedetti and the fragments surviving in Arabic catenae; (2) to provide a critical evaluation of Riedinger’s hypothesis that certain texts by ps.­‑Caesarius and Isidore of Pelusium contain 24 new fragments of Clement’s Hypotyposes; (3) and lastly, to present arguments for the hypothesis that the text preserved as Eclogae propheticae could have (together with fragments of the Hypotyposes) constituted Clement’s preparatory notes for a Biblical commentary.

It is well known that the Medieval collection of hagiographies Legenda aurea contains (as part of the hagiography De sancto Iohanne apostolo et evangelista) the story about the apostle John and the second repentance of a young robber which was originally part of Clement‘s homily Quis dives salvetur?. The article reflects possible transmitting of texts between the QDS and Legenda aurea (above all Historia ecclesiastica by Eusebius and ps.‑Abdias' text Virtutes Iohannis), looking for additional shared motifs between these two works, and concludes that the author of Legenda aurea was inspired by Clement in the case of at least two other stories. From Clement‘s homily, he assumes not only the stories, but also his theological argumentation related to richness and its uses. Finally, the article reflects the reasons why Clement’s less well-known (marginal) work found its "second life" in the Middle Ages. Part of the article is the Appendix – a synopsis of relevant texts (QDS, Le‑ genda aurea and Virtutes Iohannis).

Clement of Alexandria is well known as the author of Stromata I–VII and Paedagogus I–III, and also the minor works Protrepticus and Quis dives salvetur?. There are several texts by Clement, however, which are often neglected by scholars concerned with Clement’s theology: the so-called Stromata VIII, Excerpta ex Theodoto, Eclogae propheticae and the extant fragments of Hypotyposes. These texts have been evaluated as Clement’s masterpiece by certain scholars while others perceive them as strange and dissonant to Clement’s “standard” theology represented by Stromata and Paedagogus. There were even opinions in the past claiming that these texts represent heretical ideas of a too young or too old Clement. The aim of this paper is to present these works in the light of contemporary scholarship and encourage a reading of these texts as valuable evidence of early Christian (orthodox and heterodox) biblical hermeneutics.
