Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines discrepancies in existing versions of the Pentateuch, or the initial five books of the Old Testament. During the centuries between its composition and the present day, the Pentateuch was repeatedly copied by hand and translated. This process, while indispensable for disseminating these ancient texts, introduced innumerable errors. The author offers a meticulous comparison of the Pentateuch's Hebrew, Samaritan, and Greek texts, scrutinizing every deviation to gauge its significance. The book elucidates the motives behind intentional alterations and explains how accidental omissions, additions, changes of order, and differing interpretations have affected the Pentateuch over time. It underscores the value of textual analysis in understanding this foundational religious text and highlights the significance of preserving its original intent. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781332240845_0
