ANCIENT
HEBRAIC
WRIT
Manuscript Written ia A. D.
735
Oldest OfAny of the Original
Writings Heretofore Found


Cairo, Jan 31.-A Globe-Democrat
correspondent mas had the privilege
Of inspecting an extraordinary Bibli-
cal find. II is a manuscript of four
books Of the Pentatouch, written in
Samaritan characters on parchment.
The manuscript contains 255 folios
in excellent state of preservation with
the exception of the first page, which
has been restored. The folios are 38
centimeters long, containing "a lines
to page. A page containing the date
116 Moslem era, which is equivalent
to A. ID. 735, is we'll preserved.
The manuscript is the Oldest Of any
OF the Hebrew manuscripts of the
Bible yet discovered. Its owner is re-
ported as already negotiating the sale
Of it to Mr. Aver of the Chicago mu-
scum.
Comparing the present Hebrew
Bible with this manuscript, the Globe
Democrat man found seeral notable
differences. Immediately after the
decalogue there is a passage of some
fifteen lines not in the actual version.
Your correspondent had these lines
translated into English They are as
follows:
1T shall come TO pass when the
Lord, your God, shall bring you into
the land OF Canaan, whittier ye are
journeying and which ye are to in
herit, that ye shall set up for your.
selves large stones, built together
with lime and shall write upon these
stones all the works Of this book,
and Il shall come 10 pass that after
the passage of the River Jordan ye
shall also set up the same memorial
as | have already commanded you on
the Mount Gerizim, and ye shall build
there to the Lord your God an altar
OF stones rough hewn and not touched
with iron Tools
The word blank Is blurred and looks
like Gilgal George Zeidan, a member
OF the Royal Asiatic Society, noted
author and historian, Is temporary
custodian OF the manuscript, which
belongs to Khale el Sabra. Pending
its final disposition Biblical scholars
are offered all opportunity to study
it.
