The so called Eclogae Propheticae, the last section of the fragmentary text that follows the seventh book of the Stromateis in the manuscript, consists of a set of exegetical notes on selected passages in the Scriptures. This paper focuses on the passage Ecl. 38–50 which includes esp. references to Psalm 17, the Book of Wisdom and also the Apocalypse of Peter. The references to the Apocalypse are analysed, their number and demarcations are questioned and individual ideas contained in their context are compared with Clement’s statements in Stromateis. On the basis of this comparison it seems probable that (most of) the references to the Apocalypse of Peter are not Clement’s direct quotations or allusions, but are parts of Clement’s excerpts from exegetical literature. The paper contains the Greek text and Czech translation of Ecl. 38–50 with the certain, probable and possible references to the Apocalypse highlighted.

One of the accusations against Priscillian and his followers was their use of non-canonical books in their writings and teachings. This was proof positive for Priscillian’s opponents that he and his followers were a sect worthy of condemnation and that their writings were tainted with heresy. These accusations are found in several of the Suevic-Visigothic councils of Hispania. it is fortuitous that we have Priscillian’s response to this accusation in his Tractatus III: Priscilliani Liber de Fide et de Apocryphis. In this work Priscillian wrote a spirited and proficient defense against his adversaries.
