The Lord - Fifty-one MSS. of Kennicott' s, and fifty-four of De Rossi' s, and one edition; in the 8th verse, (Isaiah 6:8); forty-four MSS. of Kennicott' s, and forty-six of De Rossi' s, and one edition; and in the 11th verse (Isaiah 6:11); thirty-three MSS. of Kennicott' s, and many of De Rossi' s, and one edition, for Adonai , "the Lord" read " Jehovah ," which is probably the true reading; (compare Isaiah 6:6); as in many other places, in which the superstition of the Jews has substituted Adonai for Yehovah . One of my own MSS., a very ancient and large folio, to which the points and the masora have been added by a later hand, has Yehovah in the 1st and 8th verses, in the teeth of the masora, which orders it in both places to be read Adonai .
