Abstract

207 unsatisfactory (p. 241 ; cf. p. 51). These are superficialities for which Mur- phy's painstaking treatment of details only partly compensates. The author's Latin, in the commentary as well as in the concordance, is even more deficient than that of LAB. For instance, he considers ser- vitutis to be a nominative form (p. 254). On p. 244 of the commentary the author assigns three forms of testari to testare, one to testor. J. TROMP REVIEW OF BOOKS J. NEUSNER (ed.), Judaism in Late Antiquity.
