SHORT NOTICES

SHORT NOTICES The Text o j t h e Old Testament. By Ernst Wiirthwein. Pp.xviii, 244, London, SCM Press, 1980. E8.50. The first edition of the English translation of Professor Wurthwein’s Der Text des Allen Testaments was published in 1957 by Basil Blackwell, in a version produced by Professor Peter Ackroyd. Now Errol F. Rhodes has made a new translation based upon the fourth edition of the German text, published in 1973. For the new English version the bibliography has been updated to 197b (the book was first produced by Eerdmans in the SHORT NOTICES United States in 1979) which notably increases its value. The text has been thoroughly revised, and users of the earlier publication will need to acquire this one. The number of the plates has been increased, and they are far better reproduced though two of them (numbers 4 and 32) appear to have been printed upside down. Despite this momentary aberration the publishers deserve to be both thanked and congratulated on making the book available so cheaply. L.H.C. The Presence of the Future. By George Eldon Ladd. Pp.xiv, 370, London, SPCK, 1980, E4.95.

Abstract

The Text o j t h e Old Testament. By Ernst Wiirthwein. Pp.xviii, 244, London, SCM Press, 1980. E8.50. The first edition of the English translation of Professor Wurthwein’s Der Text des Allen Testaments was published in 1957 by Basil Blackwell, in a version produced by Professor Peter Ackroyd. Now Errol F. Rhodes has made a new translation based upon the fourth edition of the German text, published in 1973. For the new English version the bibliography has been updated to 197b (the book was first produced by Eerdmans in the SHORT NOTICES United States in 1979) which notably increases its value.
