Synopsis

Proofs of the Interpolation of the Vowel Letters in the Text of the Hebrew Bible and Grounds Thence Derived for a Revision of its Authorized English Version is a book written by Charles William Wall and published in 1857. The book argues that the Hebrew Bible, as it exists today, contains numerous errors and interpolations that have resulted in a distorted and inaccurate text. Wall focuses specifically on the vowel letters in the text, which he believes have been added or altered over time, leading to confusion and inconsistencies in the translation. Wall provides numerous examples and evidence to support his claims, including comparisons to other ancient texts and analysis of the Hebrew language itself. He also argues that these errors and interpolations have led to significant theological misunderstandings and misinterpretations, and that a revision of the Authorized English Version of the Bible is necessary to correct these issues. Overall, Proofs of the Interpolation of the Vowel Letters in the Text of the Hebrew Bible and Grounds Thence Derived for a Revision of its Authorized English Version is a scholarly and detailed analysis of the Hebrew Bible and its translation, providing a unique perspective on the history and evolution of this important religious text.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

A rcanumpunctationis revelatum by Capellus in 1624,the comparatively modern origin of the vowel-points in Hebrew writing was clearly exposed, vast advantages were expected to result from this disclosure. These anticipations, however, have not been realized. In fact, the Masoretic system was the gradual production of a long series of ages extending from about the seventh or eighth to the twelfth century of our era ;and the Masorets pointed their Scriptures, not only with great care and deliberation, but also with the most scrupulous honesty :so that the misreadings to be laid exclusively to their charge, which have been detected by Hebraists since the period of its having been found that the pointing of the sacred text is to be treated as a work of uninspired, fallible men, are neither extremely numerous nor of the very highest importance.
