667 xliii. 1-7. Hebrew and Greek still agree in essentials, Greek as usual omitting Divine Titles (which the Hebrew copyists delight in repeating), the needless father-names and also the term _proud_ (or _presumptuous_) in 2, where it reads _the others_ for the senseless Hebrew participle _saying_. In 6 it reads _remainder_ for _children_, and _household_ for _daughters—of the king_. 668 xliii. 8-13. In 9 for the obscure Hebrew phrase, R.V. _in mortar in the brickwork_, Greek reads ὲν προθύροις; in 10 lacks _My servant_, for _I_ and _I have_ reads _he_ and _thou hast_; and in 12 _he shall_ for _I will_. Also in 12 for _he shall array himself with the land of Egypt as a shepherd putteth on his garment_, Greek has _he shall clear out the land as a shepherd clears his garment from lice_. Suitable and vivid as this figure is and adopted by many moderns, one hesitates to use it for lack of confirmation from other sources. The other one is sufficient. 669 Besides its usual _minus_ Greek omits in 1 _and at Noph_, in 3 _and to serve_ and _neither ... fathers_, in 9 _and your own wickedness_, in 10 _neither have they feared, in my law nor, before you and_, in 11 _against you ... all Judah_, at least half of 12, in 15 _unto other gods_ and _that stood by_, in 18 _and to pour out ... unto her_, in 19 _to portray her_, in 22, _without inhabitant_, in 23 _as it is this day_, in 28 _mine or theirs_. Also Greek begins 19, _And all the women answered and said_, and in 25 for _ye and your wives_ reads properly _ye women_. 670 Hebrew adds _and at Noph_ (Memphis). 671 Duhm, Rothstein, Cornill, Gillies, etc., eliminate from 15 as a later addition _all the men who knew that their wives burned to other gods_ on the ground that 19 shows the women alone to be the speakers; Duhm, precariously changing besides _a great assembly_ (by the alteration of one letter) to _with a great_ (loud) _voice_. And these critics and Driver, Giesebrecht and Peake rightly take _even all the people ... in Pathros_ as a late gloss founded on verse 1. 672 That is _solemnly sworn_; Judg. xi. 36; Numb. xxx. 2, 12. 673 Some Greek MSS. and Syriac have _and all the women answered_, an addition felt to be necessary after the mention of _both_ men and women in 15. 674 Hebrew adds _to portray her_, that is on the cakes. 675 Erbt first made clear the metrical form of these verses, though I think too grudgingly, and has ignored the fact that they are not one but two Oracles. 676 So Greek. 677 Generally accepted instead of Hebrew _vows_. 678 Calvin. 679 The rest of 27 and 28_a_, the destruction of all the Jews in Egypt, is a prose expansion. 680 Hebrew adds, but Greek lacks, _from me or from them_. 681 xx. 8. 682 i. 6. 683 xx. 7. 684 vi. 11, xx. 9.
