Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Poets of the Old Testament
In the poetical literature the text is peculiarly Obscure, and Often corrupt: The keen criticism of the past century has, however, helped largely to recover the original readings. The carefully sifted results of criticism are now available to the student in Kittel's Biblia Hebraica. As the present book appeals chie?y to English readers, I have not considered it advisable to load the pages with critical apparatus.
