Excerpt from The Massoretic, and Other Notes: Contained in the Edition of the Hebrew Scriptures; Translated and Explained
My own connection with the work, and the extent to which I am responsible may be readily and briefly stated. The greater part of the preparatory labour was undertaken and carried through by Mr. Ritson, when the engagements and heavy responsibility that rested upon him in connection with the celebration of the Bible Society's Centenary compelled him to lay aside the task. I then agreed to add whatever was necessary in detail, and to see the book through the press. The credit, therefore, of the initiation and practical accomplishment of the work is due to Mr. Ritson, who devoted to it many hours of the closest attention and thought.
While for blemish es and faults, whether of oversight or of lack of judgement, I must bear the whole burden of blame.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating world of the Massorah, a collection of critical and grammatical notes on the Hebrew text of the Old Testament. The Massorah, meaning "tradition," was developed by Jewish scholars, known as the Massoretes, over centuries to safeguard the sacred text from corruption and ensure its accurate transmission. The author provides a detailed account of the Massoretes' work, outlining the various types of notes they compiled, ranging from meticulous observations on consonants, vowels, and accents to the recording of variant readings and the counting of words and verses in each book. The book explores the historical context of the Massorah, tracing its origins and development from its earliest stages to the comprehensive commentaries that emerged later. It sheds light on the techniques employed by the Massoretes and the significance of their efforts in preserving the integrity of the Hebrew Scriptures. This book offers a valuable resource for students and scholars of the Old Testament, providing a comprehensive understanding of the Massoretic tradition and its enduring influence on the textual history of the Hebrew Bible.
