17. W.C. Van Unnik, “Is I Clement 20 Purely Stoic?,” Vigiliae Christianae 4 (1950): 184: “The Stoa starts from the phaenomena and finds in them the (pantheistic) God,” whereas for the author of I Clement, “the τάξις is not a good in itself, but the result of God’s will.”

18. According to Van Unnik (“Is I Clement 20 Purely Stoic?,” 189), “the tinge of Stoic language is unmistakable,” but this conception of the universe “is subjected to . . . the biblical idea of God” that is consistent with the Jewish catechetical instruction known to Saint Paul.
