259. The parenthetic statement is absent from the Greek.
260. Not in the Greek.
261. The Greek does not give the names of the letters, but otherwise the section closes practically as above. B is given in App. I. A spells out the names of the letters in both Syriac and Greek, then adds what may well be meant for the Hebrew letters (but ע is not given; it seems to be spelled out again in Greek, αιν ). In A the Greek alphabet follows, interspersed with other characters in part at least Semitic.
262. The Syriac consonants are given, vocalized according to the Greek text so far as possible. For the five books of the Pentateuch the Hebrew titles are given fairly accurately, except that in the case of Numbers the first word of the Hebrew text is given rather than the conventional Hebrew title. The various books are numbered in the margin.
263. The prefixed d in the Greek even shows clearly an Aramaic influence here and in most of the other titles.
264. Another Aramaized form, not used by the Hebrews; cf. Origen's title in Die griechischen christlichen Schriftsteller der ersten drei Jahrhunderte: Hippolytus I(Leipzig, 1897) 137.
265. The title used in the Peshitta; therefore the vocalization of the Greek is not allowed above. This is the exact equivalent of the LXX paraleipomena.
266. The initial d is present in B.
267. So the Greek. Margin: dmethaloth (for B margin see last note), which seems to be the Aramaic root plus the Hebrew fem. pl. ending.
268. In the Syriac lit. "he who collects together."
269. The exact Syriac translation of the Hebrew title.
270. The title used in the Peshitta.
271. Vocalized according to the Greek, for there is no such Hebrew term. It can hardly be related to [ Hebrew ] .
272. Greek: "among the Greeks."
273. The usual form of the word in Epiphanius.
274. Margin: "The Egyptians call the modius [ Syriac ] ." The Syriac translator did not understand the Greek πεντοι , "indeed" or "really."
275. Greek: "which is translated homologia," i.e., "agreement."
276. Not in the Greek.
277. The Greek sentence omits the negatives.
278. Margin: "Gnomon is that which is translated: 'and he gave to every man what was due him.' "
279. Margin: "Homologia, confession or acknowledgment; likewise also the other two names."
280. This sentence not in the Greek.
281. Greek: "the Law of our God," omitting "for us."
282. Greek: "teaching of God is prefigured."
283. Greek: "it is shown that from the Law....."
