Book excerpt: Excerpt from The General Repository and Review, 1813, Vol. 3: To Be Continued Quarterly It may be considered a defect of Doderlein and Meisner, that they designate mss. By the numbers of Kennicott and De llossi, without giving us a descriptioniof those mss. These numbers therefore are of no service to one, who does not pos sess or cannot consultthe Bible of Kennit and the collection of De Rossi. For instance, Leviticus ix. 21. We have mm, in the text, but Diiderlein and Meisner tell us, in the margin, that mm is readin the 109th,529th, andperhaps in the 846thot' Kennicott, and in the 789th, 174th, s43d, and 693d, by the first hand, of De Rossi; and that instead of either, we read m rm mm in the Samaritan, and in the mss. Of Kennicott numbered84,107, 369, 437, 4-38, 439, 459, 464, 466, 482, 488, sir, 564, 567, 581, 593, 597, 610, and also in the 436th, by the first hand. Of all this what is the profit, till we know more of these mss. Than their number on the list? Either the number of mss.
