  FROM THE GERMAN PREFACE

The present (twenty-eighth) edition of this Grammar, like the former ones, takes account as far as possible of all important new publications on the subject, especially J. Barth's, pt. i, Lpz. 1907; the important works of C. Brockelmann (for the titles see the heading of ; vol. i of the was finished in 1908); P. Kahle's, Lpz. 1902 (giving on p. 51 ff. an outline of Hebrew accidence from a Babylonian MS. at Berlin); R. Kittel's, Lpz. 1905 f., 2 vols. (discriminating between certain, probable, and proposed emendations; see, end); Th. Nöldeke's, Strassburg, 1904; Ed. Sievers' (for the titles of these striking works see ). The important work of J. W. Rothstein,, &c. (see also ), unfortunately appeared too late to be used. The two large commentaries edited by Nowack and Marti have been recently completed; and in P. Haupt's Polychrome Bible, part ix (Kings) by Stade and Schwally was published in 1904.

For full reviews of the twenty-seventh edition, which of course have been considered as carefully as possible, I have to thank Max Margolis (in, 1902, p. 159 ff.), Mayer
