523 Hebrew adds _of the prophet_. _ 524 Recognised_ or _acknowledged_. 525 Greek adds _In the sight of all the people_; also gives the plural _bars_. 526 Greek lacks these words. 527 So Greek; Hebrew _thou shalt_. 528 Hebrew adds _Hear now Hananiah_. 529 Hebrew adds _that year_. 530 By Giesebrecht. 531 Hebrew adds _Before the Lord, yea before His holy words_ (Greek _before His glorious majesty_). Both break the connection and are unmetrical. 532 The couplet here given by Hebrew and Greek is too long for the verse, breaks the connection, and is apparently a copyist’s dittography expanded by quotation from ix. 2 (Duhm). But a single line is needed. Helped by Greek, we might read _and because of these mourns_. 533 After Duhm. 534 So Syriac, alone yielding a sound division of the lines. 535 Hebrew and Greek add a line breaking metre and parallel. 536 Jerusalem’s (?). 537 Greek adds _of Hosts concerning the prophets_. 538 Cornill rejects this couplet, I think needlessly. 539 So Greek, cp. ii. 5, p. 92. 540 Or _My_, Erbt and Cornill. 541 So Greek. Hebrew _feared and heard His word_. These clauses are not metrical and may be a later intrusion; which 19, 20 certainly are, for they find their proper place in xxx. 23, 24. 542 So Greek. 543 Hebrew expands, _from their evil way and_. 544 So Greek affirmatively. Hebrew, by putting the couplet as a question, confuses the meaning. To _near_ it adds _Rede of the Lord_. 545 So Duhm happily takes a third repetition (for other cases of this kind, see vii. 4; xxii. 29) instead of the senseless _how long_ at the beginning of the next verse. 546 Giesebrecht’s happy emendation. 547 So Greek. 548 Greek _Law_. 549 So Greek. 550 Greek adds _so My words_. 551 Hebrew adds _thus_. 552 So lit. or _call it a Rede_; _fling out_ so two Greek versions, Hebrew _take_. 553 Zeph. iii. 4. 554 In 31 and 32 Hebrew repeats _Rede of the Lord_. The section which follows can hardly be Jeremiah’s. 555 xxii. 19; II. Kings xxiv. 6; just as conversely Huldah’s prophecy that Josiah would _be gathered to his fathers in peace_, II. Kings xxii. 20, was belied at Megiddo. 556 xxiii. 32, repeating what he has frequently said already. 557 As Amos had more strongly put it, _You only have I known of all the families of the earth, therefore I will visit upon you all your iniquities_, iii. 2. 558 xxiii. 27. 559 As we have seen; above, pp. 76, 104 f., 137. 560 viii. 11; xxiii. 14, 17, 22, etc., etc. 561 xxix. 23, xxiii. 14. 562 xxiii. 28, above, p. 257; cp. xxvii. 18. 563 xxviii. 11, cp. xlii. 1-7. 564 xxviii. 6; above, p. 251. 565 xxvi. 14, 15. 566 See further, Lecture vii. 567 xxiii. 31, p. 258. 568 xxiii. 21.
