NOTES ON THE MASORAH PARVA EZRA ]biW qwsp aWr fW — Com.: This lemma has no circellus. 1:1 tn"v 2 yh¢l « a ¿ hw:hy ` w\ — Com.: The circellus has been placed between hw:hy and yhel¿a, but since there are many more than six occurrences of yhel¿a hw:hy , the note, as the Mm indicates, most likely refers to the three words yIm’V;h’ yhel¿a hw:hy . 11 t/l [;he bW — Com.: Twice, once in this form and once defective in Num 9:17. 2:22 hp ‘fon sWj lwk — Com.: Note that lwk “all” is used here even though there are only two references, this one and Neh 7:26. 59 aiH [Wfb g\ Three times with this accent (in the book). — Com.: The Mp differs from the text of ML, which has only two occurrences of this lemma in the book (Ezra 2:59; Neh 7:61). 62 Wl `a} gOy w P" bWjw bW Twice: Neh 7:64. 69 ~ynI/mK]r D" lWm bW — Com.: The Mp differs from the text of ML, which has three occurrences of this lemma (Ezra 2:69; Neh 7:70, 71). twaBo rI lWm dj bW Twice, once plene (with an a in the book). 70 yrI_[}/Vh’ w lWm jW Eight times plene (in the book). la«‘r:c]yIAlk;w qwsp xWmab y\hW — Com.: The number “fifteen” seems to have been repeated from the adjacent entry for laer:c]yI ynEb]W. Elsewhere the Mp gives the number for this lemma as thirty-four or thirty-five (see Mp to 8:25). 3:1 vyaiHK] bWy\ — Com.: The Mp differs from the text of ML, which has twenty occurrences of this lemma (see the Mp to Neh 7:2; 8:1). The circellus is placed unusually high over this lemma, suggesting that it has possibly been misplaced and originally belonged with the nearby word Wps]a;YEw," which is where BHK3 and BHS assign it. 7 m,v,%w: z\ — Com.: The Mp differs from the text of ML, which has only six occurrences of this lemma (see Weil, ⁄ 3632). 10 ynIBo` h’ hW — Com.: Five times, three plene (Ps 118:22; Neh 3:37; 4:11) and two defective (Job 3:14; Ezra 3:10). 11 [;^h;Alk;w qwsp xWmb n\ — Com.: Elsewhere (e.g., at Josh 1:2) the Mp gives the number of occurrences for this lemma as fifty-one. For a discussion of the discrepancy, see Mynatt, Sub-Loco Notes, 82–83. 12 /varIh I dWsW — Com.: The Mp lists the number of occurrences of this lemma here and in 6:19 and 7:9 as sixty-four. But elsewhere in the book (10:17; Neh 8:18) it lists the number as sixty-three. 4:6 hn:–f]ci n\Ml rWtbw bW Twice, and in two languages (Gen 26:21). 7 l; v]Bi bW — Com.: The Mp differs from the text of ML, which has only one occurrence of this lemma. 13 yki‘l]m’ lW — Com.: This lemma has no circellus.

NOTES ON THE MASORAH PARVA
y\md qwsp bWy\ — Com.: The circellus has been placed at the right hand side of yDI to indicate that the note refers to the entire verse and not just to the word itself. r~WDT’v]a,w lW — Com.: The Mp differs from the text of ML, which has another occurrence of this lemma in v. 19. .t[†Ik]W bW — Com.: The Mp differs from the text of ML, which has only one occurrence of this lemma. .aL;koP am Hl;v] aK ‘l]m’ lW — Com.: The Mp note is placed on the left side of the next Mp note (g\), followed by a squiggle. Since the note is written in the left hand margin, the lW ought to be on the right side of the g\ to indicate that the note on its lemma comes before the note to which the g\ is attached (aL;k)o . an: Wb ytih} bW — Com.: The Mp differs from the text ML, which has only one occurrence of this lemma. yId_ " aBe sWp ar g\ Three times at the beginning of a verse (in the book). hb¢h } d" hW tWk g\ Three times written with h (in this form and with the cj.). yn"T]T’Æ bW Twice (with t lT˘I). yb«¢c;l]W ybvlw djw lW Once, and once ybvlw (Isa 59:20). yId"a Æ [Wfb ?fW Nine times with this accent (in this form and in yId"aBe). — Com.: The Mp is damaged where the lettter fW ought to be written. See Mp to Dan 2:46; 5:9; 6:12; etc. hyr : ` k’z W hW — Com.: This lemma has no circellus. ht ¢y B’ hW tWk bW — Com.: This lemma has no circellus. tve+ tWwk MWnrb wM lkw lW — Com.: The Mp notes only one occurrence of this lemma, whereas the Mm also includes Isa 20:4. WbrI%q]h’w MWylb sWj y\ Ten times defective in this and similar forms (see Weil, ⁄ 667). . /vParIh; dWsW — Com.: The Mp lists the number of occurrences of this lemma here and in 3:12 and 7:9 as sixty-four. But elsewhere in the book (10:17; Neh 8:18) it lists the number as sixty-three. a~r:z [, g\ — Com.: Since Ezra’s name occurs more than three times in the book, the note most likely refers to the occurrences of Ezra when followed by heKoh’ (see the Mp to Ezra 10:10, 16; Neh 8:2), and the circellus has been placed here by mistake. /v+arIh; dWsW — Com.: The Mp lists the number of occurrences of this lemma here and in 3:12 and 6:19 as sixty-four. But elsewhere in the book (10:17; Neh 8:18) it lists the number as sixty-three. tc¿—[}l’w [Wml sWj bWy\ According to the Western tradition there are twelve occurrences of this defective lemma (with and without the w cj.). — Com.: There are actually thirteen occurrences of this lemma, twelve without the w cj. (see Mp to Neh 8:15; 13:27) and this one with the w cj. (see Ginsburg 2, [, ⁄ 825). l†-v]WryliIw jW — Com.: There is only one occurrence of this lemma in its Aramaic form, but there are eight occurrences in its Hebrew form (see Weil, ⁄ 2159). hb ‘h}d"w hW tWk g\ Three times written with h (with and without the cj.). j ‘l]p;l] „fj — Com.: The Mp note is written by a second hand. .dbiI[}t]yI sWjw bW — Com.: The note refers to the fact that this word is written with a œTreq, not a §erP. . hoPyle[} sWjw bW — Com.: The Mp differs from the text of ML, which has only one occurrence of this lemma.

Each letter of the note represents the first letter of their names, except for yTijih’ and yrIx]Mih’, where the second consonant (t and x respectively) has been used. 2 dyw"N dWy\ — Com.: See 8:31. 3 yli-y[im]W lW — Com.: The Mp differs from the text of ML, which has another occurrence of this lemma in v. 5. 6 d[ H mWsd pWwsb [Wfb aWy\ Eleven times with the accent (mPr 3I) connected with (= occurring near) the end (of a verse). 7 hZ<—h’ /Y⁄h’ tWkb g\ — Com.: The Mp must refer to Ezra-Nehemiah not to the Writings since there are more than three references of this lemma in the Writings (e.g., 1 Chr 4:41, 43; 13:11; 17:5; etc.) but only three in Ezra-Nehemiah (Ezra 9:7; Neh 4:10; 9:32).

are two Mp notes. 5 ar—:/Nh’ w l/d“G:h’ bW — Com.: The circellus has been placed between l/dG:h’ and ar:/Nh’ w , but since the phrase ar:/Nh’ w l/dG:h’ occurs more than twice (e.g., Deut 1:19; 8:15; Joel 3:4; etc.), the note most likely refers to the three words laeh; ar:/Nh’ w l/dG:h’, which only occur twice (here and at Dan 9:4). 6 t/j‚Wtup] yn<Qy[e w P [Wfb w\y\ — Com.: The circellus is written far above the lemma and occurs on top of the munIœ on the word an: in the preceding line. 9 t -ao tWkb sWj lW — Com.: There is more than one case of this form written defective in the Writings (see Ginsburg, 4, a, ⁄1442).
