Abstract

critical editions of the QT. A list of abbreviations frequently used in the apparatus of the Biblia Hebraica (BH and BHS) is attached and the tenns explained. This brief outline of its contents cannot do justice to the extraordinary qualities of this book, which was written by an excellent teacher and outstanding scholar. Its style is lucid, and the subject matter is presented in a didactically solid way. Along with the presentation of the aim, it describes the problems and methods of textual criticism and sketches the discipline's history. General statements are always supported by several pertinent examples. The biographical lists heading each chapter are practically exhaustive. Five indices (Bible verses, rabbinical references, Qumran documentation, authors, and topics) facilitate the search for specific infonnation. One may hope-and expect-that this book will shortly be translated into European languages and thus find the broader audience it deserves. It is safe to predict that it will become the standard reference book on the subject of textual criticism. Benjamin Kedar-KopJstein Haifa University Haifa 31999 Israel CONJECTURES SUR LA BIBLE. By Marco Treves. Pp. 347. Quvrage en souscription, 1990. Paper. Upon receipt of this book, I made a curious discovery. The late author
