35<\/strong>. Nahalal<\/em> ] See ch. Jos 19:15<\/span> (Heb.).<\/p>\n Verse 35<\/span>. Dimnah with her suburbs, c.<\/B><\/I>] It is well known to every Hebrew scholar that the two following verses are wholly omitted by the Masora and are left out in some of the most correct and authentic Hebrew Bibles. Between critics there is no small controversy relative to the authenticity of these verses; and those who wish to see the arguments at large on both sides, must consult the Variae Lectiones<\/I> of De Rossi<\/I> on this place. Dr. Kennicott, who is a strenuous advocate for their authenticity argues thus in their behalf: “Verses 41<\/span> and 42<\/span> of this chapter tell us that the Levitical cities were forty-eight, and that they had been all<\/I> as such described; so that they must have been all specified in this chapter: whereas now in all the Hebrew copies printed in full obedience to the Masora, which excludes two<\/I> verses containing four<\/I> of these cities, the number amounts only to forty-four.<\/P> <\/P> “The cities are first mentioned, in the general, as being thirteen<\/I> and ten<\/I>, with thirteen<\/I> and twelve<\/I>, which are certainly forty-eight<\/I>. And yet when they are particularly named, Jos 21:13-19<\/span> gives thirteen<\/I> cities; Jos 21:20-26<\/span> gives ten<\/I> cities; Jos 21:27-33<\/span> gives thirteen<\/I>; Jos 21:34-36<\/span> gives four<\/I> cities; and Jos 21:35-36<\/span> gives four<\/I> more, all which can make but forty-four<\/I>. And what still increases the wonder is, that Jos 21:40<\/span> infers from the verses immediately preceding, that the cities allowed to the Merarites were twelve<\/I>, though they here make eight<\/I> only, unless we admit the four<\/I> other cities expressed in those two<\/I> verses, which have been rejected by that blind guide the Masora<\/I>. In defiance of this authority these two<\/I> verses, thus absolutely necessary, were inserted in the most early editions of the Hebrew text, and are found in Walton’s Polyglot, as well as in our English Bible. But they have scarce ever been as yet printed completely, thus, And<\/I> out of the tribe or Reuben<\/I>, A CITY OF REFUGE FOR THE SLAYER, Bezer<\/I>, IN THE WILDERNESS, with her suburbs, and Jahazah with<\/I> her suburbs, Kedemoth with her suburbs, and Mephaath with her<\/I> suburbs; four cities. See on this place my edition of the Hebrew<\/I> Bible, where no less than <\/I>one hundred and forty-nine copies are<\/I> described, which happily preserve these verses, most clearly<\/I> essential to the truth and consistency of this chapter. See also<\/I> General Discourse<\/I>, pp. 19, 26, 54.”<\/P> <\/P> Though this reasoning of Dr. Kennicott appears very conclusive, yet there are so many and important variations among the MSS. that retain, and those that reject these verses, as to render the question of their authenticity very difficult to be determined. To Dr. Kennicott’s one hundred and forty-nine MSS. which have these two verses, may be added upwards of forty collated by De Rossi. Those who deny their authenticity say they have been inserted here from 1Ch 6:78-79<\/span>, where they are found it is true, in general, but not exactly as they stand here, and in Dr. Kennicott’s Hebrew Bible.<\/P> <\/p>\n Dimnah with her suburbs<\/strong>,…. Nowhere mentioned, unless the same with Rimmon, 1Ch 6:77<\/span>;<\/p>\n Nahalal with her suburbs<\/strong>; see Jos 19:15<\/span>;<\/p>\n four cities<\/strong>; only two are mentioned, 1Ch 6:77<\/span>; and they by different names; the one is Rimmon, before observed, and the other Tabor; perhaps the same with Chislothtabor, Jos 19:12<\/span>.<\/p>\n Dimnah: This and the following verse are wholly omitted by the Masora, and many Hebrew Bibles which are esteemed very highly; though, without them, neither the twelve cities of the Merarites in particular – Jos 21:40, nor the forty-eight Levitical cities in general – Jos 21:41, nor the six cities of refuge, can be made up. But these two verses, are thus absolutely necessary for the truth and consistency of this chapter, are happily preserved in no less than 149 manuscripts collated by Dr. Kennicott, and upwards of 40 collated by De Rossi.
