Shalom everybody The apparatus of BHS to Deut 5,33 claims a Qumran text (not specified) with the reading TLKWNW replacing the "'eloheykem 'etkem teleku" of the MT.
I can't find this reading anywhere - the closest would be the Tfilin text 4Q135 that has TLKWN - which seems rather more easy to make sense of than the BHS apparatus reading (and which, incidentally, was not published in DJD yet when the relevant fascicle of BHS came out in 1972). Am I being completely muddleheaded or did Hempel (who edited Deuteronomy for BHS) quote some preliminary publication which I am unaware of? all the best Soren _______________________________________________ g-Megillot mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mailman.McMaster.CA/mailman/listinfo/g-megillot
