Page 174, note 1a, line 7, read: Hath He said, and shall He not do it? being the quotation from Numbers 23:19, which is intended as an answer to the pretension. The rendering of the passage by the learned Dr. Schwab is untenable.LTJMB3 478.5
Page 268, note 3: the quotation is taken from the unmutilated and sublime citation as given in R. Martini Pugio Fidei, ed. Carpzov. p. 782. Page 271(k). This is the view of Beer, Leben Abr. p. 88.LTJMB3 478.6
Page 292: for temptations read temptation. The ten temptations of Abraham are referred to in Ab. P. 3, and enumerated in Ab. de R. N. 33 and Pirque de R. El. 26. Page 312h. Of course, this is the expression of a later Rabbi, but it refers to Pharisaic interpretations.LTJMB3 478.7

Page 384, note 1: In Vayy. R. 30, the expression refers to the different condition of Israel after the time described in Hosea 3:4, or in that of Hezekiah, or at the deliverance of Mordecai.

Page 443, as to priest guilty of open sin, the details, which I refrained from giving, are mentioned in Duschak, Jud. Kultus, p. 270.LTJMB3 478.11
Page 444, note 3. This, of course, in regard to an unlearned priest. See discussion in Duschak, u.s. p. 255.LTJMB3 478.12
Page 447(c). Ber. 6 b. Probably this was to many the only ground for reward, since the discourse was the Pirqa, or on the Halakah. Ib.(e) Taan. 16 a: though the remark refers to the leader of the devotions on fast-days, it is also applied to the preacher by Duschak, p. 285.LTJMB3 478.13
Page 505, note 3, see correction of p. 174, note (u.s.).LTJMB3 478.14
Page 514, note 2: in Taan. 20 a the story of the miracle is cold which gave him the name Nicodemus.LTJMB3 478.15
Page 536(g). I refer to the thanksgiving of Nechunyah. See also the prayer put into the mouth of Moses, Ber. 32 a. And although such prayers as Ber. 16 b, 17 a, are sublime, they are, in my view, not to be compared with that of Christ in its fulness and breadth.LTJMB3 478.16
Page 539(c). sanh. 100 b is, of course, not verbatim worded. This would be in the second sentence: Possibly on the morrow he will not be, and have been found caring for a world which is not his.LTJMB3 479.1
