• 16:14d. So sense and grammar require; Heb. inserts "the pin" before "the loom."
• 16:18b. So Qere; Kethibh "he has told her."
• 16:19c. So Kethibh represented by Vrs.; Qere "she began to afflict him."

• 18:7c. So by slight change, cf. vs. 10; Heb. "there was no one to humiliate them in anything."

• 4:5c. So Vrs.;, Heb. "from Ruth."
• 4:20d. So Heb. MSS; Heb. "Salmah."

• 1:1a. Heb. reads "Ramathaim" a dual form that occurs only here. This is probably due to an error in copying. The reading "Zuphite" is based upon LXX; Heb. is ungrammatical.
• 1:1b. The genealogy is found twice besides, in I Chron. 6:11—13 and vss. 18—20. All agree on the first three names, and all differ on the last three names.
• 1:3b. "Eli" is supplied from LXX and is demanded by the context. Heb. has simply, "the two sons of Eli."
• 1:5. "However" follows LXX; Heb. makes no sense.
• 1:6. "Misfortune" is gained by the correction of one letter. Cf. Lucian's "to set at naught." Heb. signifies "to cause to thunder," and makes no sense here.
• 1:7. "she did," following Syr. and Vulg. Heb. "he did." "They went up," so Vulg.; Heb. "she went up."
• 1:9. "They had eaten," so LXX; Heb. "after she had eaten," but ungrammatical. Heb. adds "and after drinking," but construction entirely anomalous, and probably a later gloss.
• 1:10. "Very wretched," Heb. "bitter of mind."
• 1:12. "It happened," Heb. "and it shall be" is ungrammatical.
• 1:15. "Unfortunate," Heb. "hard of spirit" in the sense of obstinate; LXX, "hard of day," i.e., unfortunate.
• 1:18. "To the sacrificial chamber," so LXX; Heb. om. "sad," so LXX, lit. "fell," i.e., be sad; Heb. "was no more."
• 1:20. "And Hannah conceived," following the logical order of LXX; Heb. misplaced.
• 1:23. "Your," so LXX and Syr.; Heb. "his."
• 1:24. "Three-year-old," so LXX and Syr.; Heb. "three bulls" contrary to context and corrupted by a wrong word division. "Five pecks," Heb. "ephah." "She came," so LXX, Heb. "she brought." "Accompanied by the child," so LXX; Heb. inanely "the boy was a boy."
• 1:28. "Lives," so LXX, Targum and Syr.; Heb. "shall be." "Set apart," lit. "asked."

[1634] [page break]

• 2:1. "Strength," lit. "horn." "My god," so some Vrs., Heb. "the LORD."
• 2:2b. "Righteous," so some Vrs.; Heb. "rock."
• 2:3. "By him," following the Qere. The Kethibh "not" makes no suitable sense here.
• 2:5. "To toil" is gained by supplying one letter. Heb. is meaningless as it stands.
• 2:8b. The last two lines of the vs. are not found in LXX.
• 2:10. "Against them," lit. "against him." "Power," lit. "horn," cf. vs. 1.
• 2:11. So LXX; clause a in Heb. reads: "And Elkanah went to Ramah to his house," which connects with Heb. of 1:28b.
• 2:13. Heb. om. "from" owing to a wrong division of words. Heb. also has a faulty vs. division. The rendering of clause a is supported by some Vrs., and a few Heb. MSS. "Three-pronged fork," Heb. requires a slight adjustment of letters to be grammatical.
• 2:14. "For himself," so some Vrs. Heb. reads: "with it." "To sacrifice to the LORD," so LXX; Heb. merely has "came there."
• 2:16. "Should the man," etc., Heb. states it as a past fact, but the context demands the foregoing rendering. "No," so 17 MSS Qere and LXX; Kethibh reads: "to him."
• 2:18. "Linen garment," lit. "ephod."
• 2:20. "Reward," so LXX; Heb. has "put," which appears to be due to a copyist's omission of a letter still expressed by LXX. "Dedicated," following the suggestion of 1:28. Heb. cannot be construed as it stands. "Their place," so Syr.; Heb. has "his."
• 2:21. "And visited," so LXX, Heb. is unidiomatic and obviously wrong.
• 2:22. "All Israel," the word "all" is not in LXX.
• 2:23b. At end of vs. Heb. adds "these," but ungrammatically and probably due to dittography.
• 2:27. "I revealed myself," etc.; Heb. makes this an interrogative sentence calling for a negative answer, which is unintelligible at this point. This is probably an error and arose from dittography. "Subject to," so LXX, omitted in Heb.
• 2:29. "Look," so LXX; Heb. "kick" brought about by a slight change in the order of letters. "Eyeing enviously," so LXX; Heb. cannot be construed as it stands. "In my presence," so LXX; Heb. untenable as it stands.
• 2:31. "Strength," lit. "arm." "Eyeing enviously," following the suggestion of vs. 29; Heb. is untranslatable. "I will bestow," gained by the correction of one letter. Heb. has third person, which is ambiguous and less suitable, since the LORD is speaking.
• 2:33. "To weep out his eyes" . . . "his heart," so LXX; Heb. has "thy." "By the sword of," so LXX; Heb. is unintelligible as it stands.
• 3:4. "Samuel! Samuel!" so LXX; Heb. "to Samuel"; so also in vs. 6.
• 3:13. "And you shall tell," Heb. "and I will tell," but the context greatly favors the second person. "Were blaspheming God," so LXX; Heb. "to them," which is unintelligible and due to the dropping of one letter.
• 3:15. "Then he rose early in the morning," so LXX; Heb. om. probably by copyist's error.
• 3:21. Last sentence of vs. is from LXX; Heb. reads: "In Shiloh by the word of the LORD."
• 4:1b. First clause is from LXX, and required by context. Heb. om.

[1635] [page break]

• 4:2. "Became general," lit. "inclined," i.e., extended, so LXX; Heb. "forsake" is impossible.
• 4:3b. "Let us take," so LXX; Heb. adds "unto us."
• 4:7. "have come to them," so LXX, Heb. om. "to them," probably by dittography.
• 4:8. "and plague"; Heb. has "in the desert," but this is against the tradition. The omission of one letter gives the foregoing reading.
• 4:10. "Every man for himself," lit. "man to his tent."
• 4:13. "beside the gate anxiously watching the road," so LXX; Heb. "by the side of the road watching," but this is inconsistent
• 4:16. "camp," so LXX; Heb. "battle line."
• 4:18. "Through the gate opening." Text is conflate, another alternative "beside the gate."
• 4:19. "About to become a mother"; Heb. is unintelligible. One letter supplied gives the foregoing reading.
• 4:21. "They called"; Heb. "she called," but the context distinctly implies that the woman died in childbirth. Either one letter has dropped off the end or the form has been corrected to conform to vs. 22.
• 5:2. "Ark of God," LXX has "ark of the Lord," which may be correct. Cf . vs. 3.
• 5:3. "And went to the house of Dagon, they looked," so LXX; Heb. om. The clause is required, "fallen face downward," lit. "falling upon his face," so LXX; Heb. makes no sense. One letter supplied gives LXX.
• 5:4. "lifted up," so LXX; Heb. "take." The confusion of one letter accounts for Heb. "His body was left," so Vrs. Heb. "Only Dagon was left," which makes no sense.
• 5:5b. "But leap over it," so LXX; Heb. om.
• 5:10. "To us, to slay us and our," lit. "to me, to slay me and my," used of the personified city, similarly vs. 11.
• 6:4. "Upon you," a correction required by the context. Heb. "upon all of them," this awkward phrase is probably due to repetition of one letter in the wrong place.
• 6:13b. "to meet it," so LXX; Heb. "to see it." Heb. due to omission of one letter.
• 6:18b. "A witness is the great stone," fol. LXX and Targum; Heb. "even unto the meadow," which makes no sense. Heb. confused one letter and then put in wrong vowels of first word.
• 6:19. The first sentence is from LXX; Heb. om. Heb. is thus without any real reason for the slaughter, since "to look at" does not mean "to look into." "Therefore he smote among them," so LXX; Heb. repeats "he smote among the people."
• 7 :2b. "sought after," fol. the Vrs., which vary but have the general sense of turning attention to. Heb. "mourn," found only here in this form.
• 7:3. "Ashtartes," Heb. "Ashtaroth," the Phoenician Ashtarte is nearer Heb. than the original Ishtar, and used here of local goddesses of fertility.
• 7:12. "Yeshana," so some Vrs.; cf. II Chron. 13:19; Heb. "Shen." "Ebenezer," i.e. "stone of help."
• 8:8. "to me," so LXX; Heb. om.
• 8:12. "hundreds," so some Vrs.; Heb. has "fifties."
• 8:16. "cattle," so LXX; Heb. has "young men," out of place here, and already mentioned in vs. 11 .
• 8:21. "presence," lit. "ears of."

[1636] [page break]

• 9:4. "they" throughout the vs., so some Vrs.; Heb. sometimes has singular.
• 9:8. "And you shall give," so LXX; Heb. "I will give."
• 9:12. "He has just now come," so LXX; Heb. "make haste for he has come to the city today."
• 9:15. "had communicated," etc., lit. "uncovered the ear."
• 9 20. "for your father's house," so LXX; Heb. adds "all."
• 9:24. "The fat tail," Heb. is untranslatable. The change of one letter gives the above. Cf. Exod. 29:22. "Samuel" is not in the text but is required.
• 9:24. "before," a correction. Heb. is untranslatable and the Vrs. give no help.
• 9:25. "Spread a bed for Saul," so LXX; Heb. "and he spoke with Saul," but very abrupt, and LXX is needed to complete context. "And he retired," so LXX; Heb. "and they rose up early," which is unsuitable to context. Heb. has confused two letters easily interchanged in the old Hebrew character. "He and Samuel," so LXX; Heb. adds "the two of them."
• 10:1b. "Hath not the LORD," etc., as far as "sign," so LXX; Heb. om., probably by copyist's error.
• 10:5. "post," so Vrs.; Heb. has pl.
• 10:7. "Do as occasion serves," lit. "what your hand finds."
• 10:13. "went home," Heb. and LXX point to "high place," but the verb and context are against it. The foregoing reading involves the necessary change of only one letter.
• 10:19. "no," so Vrs.; Heb. "to him," due probably to same pronunciation.
• 10:21. "And he caused the clan of the Mitrites to approach man by man," so LXX, as the context requires. Heb. om.
• 10:22. "Did the man come hither"? so LXX, as context requires. Heb. awkwardly, "Has there yet a man come thither?"
• 10:27b. "Now it happened after about a month," so LXX; Heb. "And he was like one keeping silent," very dubious. Vrs. suitably make the clause the beginning of chapter 11 . Heb. is probably due to an interchange of the easily confused Hebrew letters r and d.
• 11:6. "Of the LORD," so some Vrs.; Heb. "of God."
• 11:9. "He said," so LXX; Heb. "they said."
• 11:12. "not," so some Vrs. Heb. om.
• 11:13. "And Saul said"; LXX has "Samuel."
• 11:15. "Samuel anointed Saul," so LXX; Heb. "and they made Saul king." "Samuel and all the men," etc., so LXX; Heb. "Saul."
• 12:3. "Messiah," i.e., anointed one, which applied to all kings. "Or a pair of sandals? Testify against me," so LXX, cf . Eccles. 46:9, Heb. "that I might hide my eyes in it." The original difference was probably due to the corruption of one letter in Heb.
• 12:5. "They said," so Vrs.; Heb. "he said."
• 12:6. "Witness," so LXX; Heb. om.
• 12:7. "appointed," this is a correction, Heb. "made," but it gives no suitable sense.
• 12:7. "And let me declare to you," so LXX; Heb. om. "And the Egyptians afflicted them, then," so LXX; Heb. om.
• 12:8. "And he made them dwell," so Vrs.; Heb. "they made them," etc., which is contrary to the tradition of Moses and Aaron.
• 12:11. "Barak," so some Vrs.; Heb. "Bedan," probably a corrupt form of Barak.

[1637] [page break]

• 12:14b. "Well," is not stated but implicit in the sentence.
• 12:15. "And your king to destroy you," so LXX; Heb. "and your fathers," obviously wrong.
• 13:1. Heb. reads: "Saul was a year old when he began to reign; and he reigned two years over Israel." The figures are impossible and the entire statement is lacking in LXX.
• 13:2. "His son," so Syr.; Heb. om. but context demands it.
• 13:3. "in Gibeah," so LXX and Targum; Heb. "Geba," due to loss of one letter, cf. 10:5, 14:16. "The Hebrews have revolted," so LXX; Heb. "Let the Hebrews hear," and this is transposed so that it is not what the Philistines heard, but what Saul was telling the Hebrews by the trumpet blast. LXX has every mark of originality.
• 13:5. "Three thousand," so LXX and Syr.; Heb. "thirty thousand."
• 13:7. "They also crossed the fords of the Jordan," so LXX; Heb. "and the Hebrews crossed," etc. The use of "Hebrews" by Israelites is opposed to Hebrew usage. "Were on the point of desertion," lit. "trembled from after him," so Luc.; Heb. om. "from."
• 13.8. "Saul had said," so LXX and Targum; Heb. om.
• 13:12. "Have appeased the LORD," lit. "have made pleasant the face of the LORD."
• 13:15. "And proceeded on his way, and the rest of the people went up after Saul to meet with the men of war, and they went from," so LXX, Heb. om. probably by accident.
• 13:16. "Gibeah," so LXX, Heb. "Geba."
• 13:18. "The hill," so LXX, Heb. "the border."
• 13:21. So in part with LXX; Heb. is obscure.
• 14:2. "threshing floor," so Syr.; Heb. "Migron," but the location is unsuitable.
• 14:3. "in charge of," lit. "lifting up."
• 14:4. "Bozez," i.e., Shining. "Seneh," i.e., Thorny.
• 14:6. "Philistines" is only implicit in the text.
• 14.7. So LXX, Heb., awkwardly, "Do all that is in your heart; incline, behold, I am with you according to your heart." Copyist's misreading of two letters and omission of a word account for the differences.
• 14:13. "turned back," so LXX; Heb. om., but it is necessary to the context. "wounded" is only implicit in text.
• 14:14b. Heb. is untranslatable. "Part from the post," etc., follows the clue of LXX.
• 14:16. "camp," so LXX; Heb. "tumult." "melted away hither and thither," so LXX; Heb. untranslatable.
• 14:18. "the ephod," so LXX; twice Heb. has "the ark of God," which is obviously wrong.
• 14:19. "While Saul was yet speaking," requires a slight change of vowels.
• 14:21. "even these turned," so LXX and Syr.; Heb. has different vowels and punctuation, which make it awkward and ungrammatical.
• 14:23. "Beth-horon," so some MSS of LXX; Heb. "Bethaven." "and all the people" etc., to end of sentence, so LXX; Heb. om.
• 14:24. "But Saul committed a grave error that day," so LXX; Heb. "And the men of Israel were distressed (?)."
• 14:25. "Now there was comb honey in the field," so LXX; Heb. is untranslatable.

[1638] [page break]

• 14:26. "The bees had just flown away," so LXX; Heb. "and behold a stream (?) of honey."
• 14:27. "lightened," so some Vrs.; Heb. "saw."
• 14:29. "how I have been refreshed," lit. "my eyes have been lightened."
• 14:30. So LXX; Heb. introduces a negative that makes a disjointed sentence, with a premise without a conclusion, and a conclusion without the premises.
• 14:33. "hither," so LXX; Heb. "today," which is meaningless and due to confusion of one letter in Heb.
• 14:34. "the flesh," implicit in the text. "Each what was in his hand," so LXX; Heb. "each his oxen his hand."
• 14:38. "chiefs," lit. "corners."
• 14:41. So LXX thus giving the complete formula of casting the lot, found only here, Heb. omitted an entire clause, probably owing to repetition of a word.
• 14:42. "He whom the LORD," etc. as far as "son," so LXX; Heb. om.
• 14:47. "and Beth-rehob," so LXX; Heb. om. "was successful," lit. "was delivered," Heb. "acted impiously," either deliberately changed by a scribe opposed to Saul, or a copyist's error.
• 14:49. "Ishbaal," so many MSS of LXX. Cf. I Chron., 8:33; Heb. "Ishvi," i.e., "man of Yahweh," to avoid the later offensive word "Baal."
• 15:1. "Words of the LORD," so LXX; Heb. "to the voice of the words of," etc.
• 15:3. "utterly destroy," lit. "put under the ban."
• 15:6. "to the' Israelites," so LXX; Heb. adds "all."
• 15:18. "you have consumed them," so some Vrs.; Heb. untranslatable.
• 15:23. "and the iniquity of the teraphim is arrogance," so in general Symmachus; Heb. is unintelligible.
• 15:32. "trembling" so LXX; Heb. "delicately (?)," difference due to vowels. "Death is bitter," so LXX; Heb. "the bitterness of death has turned." Difference probably due to dittography.
• 16:5. "Rejoice with me today," so LXX, Heb. "come with me to the sacrifice."
• 16:7. "The LORD does not see as," so LXX; Heb. om.
• 16:15. "LORD," so some Vrs.; Heb. "God."
• 16:16. So LXX; Heb. "Let our lord, now, command, thy servants are before you, let them seek," etc. "evil spirit," so LXX; Heb. adds "from God."

• 19:22. "Then Saul's anger was aroused," so LXX; Heb. om. "the cistern of the threshing floor which is on the bare height," so LXX; Heb. "the great cistern that is in Seru," but ungrammatical and probably a corruption, "and they said," so context requires, Heb. "he said."

• 20:3. "replied," so some Vrs.; Heb. "say."
• 20:4. "desire," so some Vrs.; Heb. "say."

• 20:13. "to do you harm," the verb is lacking in the text and has probably fallen out. The clause after the adjuration is according to usage stated, not as a part of the oath, but factatively, and so has no negative.
• 20.16. "the name of Jonathan shall not be cut off from," so LXX; Heb. "and Jonathan made a covenant with the house of David," which throws both vss. 15 and 16 into disorder.
• 20:17. "And Jonathan took oath again to David," so LXX; Heb. "and Jonathan made David swear again."
• 20:19. "be missed," so LXX; Heb. "go down," which gives no sense, "that stone heap," so LXX; Heb. untranslatable.
• 20:25. "Jonathan sat opposite," so LXX and Luc.; Heb. "stood," one letter has fallen out of Heb.
• 20:26. "been cleansed," so LXX and Kethibh. Qere is a mere repetition, "clean."
• 20:29. "and my brothers have" so LXX and Luc.; Heb. "and he my brother has."

• 22:6. "on the high place," so LXX; Heb. "Ramah."

• 22:22. "guilty," so some Vrs.; Heb., untranslatable, owing to copyist's change of one letter.
• 22:23. The pronouns "my" and "your" have evidently changed places in the text.
• 23:7. "sold," so LXX; Heb. "alienated" (!).
• 23:14. "LORD," so LXX; Heb. "God."
• 23:23. "with evidence," very doubtful and harsh, lit. "according to being established." This clause after "know and see" is not in LXX.
• 23:25. "which is in," so LXX; Heb. "and dwelt."
• 24:7. "persuaded," so LXX; Heb. "tore," unsuitably.
• 24:11. "gave you," text adds "today," probably an error.
• 24:18. "and you have shown me exceptional kindness," this involves the addition of one letter; Heb. "you have told," which is very weak and questionable.
• 24:19. "safely," lit. "in a good way."
• 25:1b. "Maon," so LXX; Heb. "Paran."
• 25:6. "to my brother," following suggestion of Vulg.; Heb. makes no sense.
• 25:18. "three and a third bushels," Heb. "five measures."

[1641] [page break]

• 28:16. "your adversary," so possibly Symmachus, or with LXX and Syr. "on the side of your neighbor"; Heb. untranslatable, probably due either to transposition or change of one letter.

• 24:4. "fray," LXX "camp."

• 29:13. "three days ago," so some Vrs.; Heb. om. "days."

• 29:20. "they took," Heb. "David took," but some Vrs. om. "David." If then we read "and they drove them before them," as above, "took" should have the same subject and be plural. Heb. adds superfluously "that cattle," for which LXX has "the spoil." These words were probably added after the pron. suf . "him" preserved in Vulg. was lost from Heb.
• 29:21. "he halted," etc., so some Vrs.; Heb. "they." "they saluted," so required by vs. 22; Heb. "David saluted."

• 30:29. "Carmel," so LXX, Heb. "Racal," probably by error.
• 30:30. "Beersheba," Heb. "Borashan," probably a corruption.
• 31:3. "archers," Heb. adds "men." "and he was grievously wounded in the abdomen," so LXX; Heb. "and he was greatly distressed by the archers," due to confusion of archers and abdomen, and a different vowel pointing of verb. The second "run me through," not found in the parallel in Chronicles.
• 31:6. So "and all his men," not in LXX nor in Chronicles.
• 31:9. "to their idols," so LXX; Heb. "to the house of their idols," due to scribal error.
• 31:10. "Ashtarte," so LXX; Heb. "Ashtaroth." "impaled," Heb. is ungrammatical.
• 31:11. "they burnt them there" is not in Chronicles, and may be a corruption for "they lamented over them there."

• 1:4. "have fallen," so some Vrs.; Heb. adds "are dead."
• 1:9. "confusion," meaning very uncertain.
• 1:10. "because my life is yet in me" so LXX, Heb. "is yet whole in me."

• 1:19. "thy beauty," "thy" is implicit, and refers to Saul and Jonathan.
• 1:21. "of Gilboa," so some Vrs.; Heb. "in Gilboa." "fall," so some Vrs.; Heb. "be upon you." "fields of death," so LXX; Heb. "fields of offerings," probably due to corruption.

• 3:27. "side," so LXX; Heb. "midst."

• 4:10. So read by omitting a superfluous word in Heb. which otherwise makes the vs. untranslatable.
• 5.8. The word sinnor is uncertain but may refer to the underground shaft leading to the Virgin's Spring. This vs. is hopelessly corrupt, the rendering given rests upon a conjectural emendation, and a slight rearrangement.

• 7:19. "unto a far distant time," lit. "unto afar off." "and hast made me see the generations of men," this is an emendation. Heb. "this is the law of men," which makes no sense.
• 7:23. So in part with LXX; Heb. "And what one nation in the earth is like thy people, like Israel, in that GOD went to redeem for himself a people and to make for himself a name, and to do for you the great thing and terrible things for thy land because of thy people whom thou didst redeem for thyself from Egypt, nations and its gods."

• 23:9. "Satyrs," reading the vowels of LXX and Luc.
• 23.12. "upper chamber of Ahaz," may be a later gloss, "and beat them down there," making a different word division from the Heb. which has "beat down from there." Another versional reading is "banish."
