Synopsis

Excerpt from The Massoretic, and Other Notes: Contained in the Edition of the Hebrew Scriptures; Translated and Explained

My own connection with the work, and the extent to which I am responsible may be readily and briefly stated. The greater part of the preparatory labour was undertaken and carried through by Mr. Ritson, when the engagements and heavy responsibility that rested upon him in connection with the celebration of the Bible Society's Centenary compelled him to lay aside the task. I then agreed to add whatever was necessary in detail, and to see the book through the press. The credit, therefore, of the initiation and practical accomplishment of the work is due to Mr. Ritson, who devoted to it many hours of the closest attention and thought.

While for blemish es and faults, whether of oversight or of lack of judgement, I must bear the whole burden of blame.
