[1230] These words are given, by Oehler and Rig., on the authority of Pamelius. The mss. and early editions are without them.
[1231] Also supplied by Pamelius.
[1232] See Dan. ix . 24-27. It seemed best to render with the strictest literality, without regard to anything else; as an idea will thus then be given of the condition of the text, which, as it stands, differs widely, as will be seen, from the Hebrew and also from the LXX., as it stands in the ed. Tisch. Lips. 1860, to which I always adapt my references.
[1233] Hebdomades is preferred to Oehler’s-as, a reading which he follows apparently on slender authority.
[1234] There is no trace of these last words in Tischendorf’s LXX. here; and only in his footnotes is the “pinnacle” mentioned.
[1235] Or, “speech.” The reference seems to be to Dan. 9.23, but there is no such statement in Daniel.
[1236] So Oehler; and I print all these numbers uniformly—as in the former part of the present chapter—exactly in accordance with the Latin forms, for the sake of showing how easily, in such calculations, errors may creep in.
[1237] Comp. Ps. xlix. 11 (in LXX. Ps. xlviii. 12).
[1238] Diluuntur. So Oehler has amended for the reading of the mss. and edd., “tribuuntur.”
[1239] Comp. Pusey on Daniel, pp. 178, 179, notes 6, 7, 8, and the passages therein referred to. And for the whole question of the seventy weeks, and of the LXX. version of Daniel, comp. the same book, Lect. iv. and Note E (2d thousand, 1864). See also pp. 376–381 of the same book; and Faber (as above), pp. 293–297.
[1240] Or rather, our Lord Himself. See Matt. xi. 13; Luke xvi. 16.
[1241] Comp. the very obscure passage in de Pu. c. vi., towards the end, on which this expression appears to cast some light.
[1242] Or, “in abscision from.”
[1243] And, without “unction”—i.e. without a priesthood, the head whereof, or high priest, was always anointed—no “sacrifices” were lawful.
[1244] See Ps. xxii. 16 (xxi. 17 in LXX.)
[1245] i.e., March 25.
[1246] Comp. Exod. 12.6; Mark 14.12; Luke 22.7.
[1247] See Matt. xxvii. 24, 25, with John xix. 12 and Acts iii. 13.
[1249] Comp. Luke xxiv. 44, etc.
Chapter IX.—Of the Prophecies of the Birth and Achievements of Christ.
[1250] “A virgin,” Eng. ver.; ἡ παρθένος, LXX.; “the virgin,” Lowth.
