Notes

  • 6.

    All mss., with only one exception, give ἐμπλησθῆναι (with ψυχήν)

  • 17.

    καιον is the end of δίκαιον

  • 19-21.

    Papyrus, now in agreement with several mss., now providing new readings of its own, seems to agree with both Hebrew and Peshitta. See Commentary in P.Ryl.

  • 21.

    The large space left after [αὐ]τῶν suggests that κατὰ τὴν ἀσέβ[ειαν αὐτοῦ] belongs to the following rather than to the preceding sentence.

  • 28.

    After γενέσθαι scribe has omitted σε, read by all uncials

  • 35.

    A new column begins with this fragment.

  • 36-37.

    The length of the line makes it probable that the scribe omitted σου after υἱοί as he certainly did after θυγατέρες. This latter omission is supported by the second corrector of F, for the former there is no other authority.
