INTRODUCTION.
Tus Edition of the Bible is intended for the use of all who read the English language ; and is founded on the text of the Authorized English Version.
The plenary inspiration of the Original Scriptures is taken for granted; and it is believed that the minute attention to every “jot and tittle” which this work enables the ordinary reader to bestow, if availed of, will lead to full conviction on the subject.
In the Hebrew and Greek Scriptures there are precisions, perfections, and beauties which cannot be reproduced in any translation.
The design of the present work is to indicate many of these, by means of mat; ‘ial es and by signs which are both simple and complete.
In connexion with the DivinzE Titus, there are treasures of precious truth which cannot be discovered in ordinary versions. One object of this Edition of the Bible is to present to the eye of the reader the Titles as they really exist in the Inspired Originals.
The varied words used in Scripture for “Man,” no less than six of which are employed in the Old Testament, have also peculiar significance, and often throw light on passages.
By means of MARGINAL EMENDATIONS an effort is made toshow important distinctions between other words of frequent occurrence, such as Assembly, Congregation, Tent, Tabernacle, and renderings are thus made more correct and uniform.
At the end of the Old and New Testaments a LIST OF THE SIGNS employed is given on a fly-leaf for easy reference.
The value of many of these signs will without effort be at once appreciated, and the force of the verb-signs will soon be apprehended.
Without interfering with the revered and loved text of the Authorized Version, much information which cannot be particularized will also be found.

THE SIGNS EMPLOYED IN THE OLD TESTAMENT.
The signs made use Of are the simplest possible, and their meaning is easily understood.
ARTICLES. NUMBERS. x Definite or distinctive article. - Singular. - Objective and accusative article. = Dual * Both combined. = Plural. EmpHatic PRONOUNS. ¥, Thou, he, ete., Old English letters. TENSES, ETC. + Short tense. + Long tense. ! Present time. + Participle.
> .
OTHER SIGNs. A lower hyphen connects words together which in the Hebrew are but one. Example—
Give_ear_unto the_law_of our God. Isa. i. 10. y
Strictly parallel passages are shown by printing the references in capital letters, as Micah iv.1,2. Isa. ii. 2, 3.
»« Denotes words omitted in translation, supplied in the margin.
The NumBers before references in the margin are the numbers of the corresponding verses.
The terrers before words and in the margin are the initials of the emendations.
EXPLANATION OF THE SIGNS.
The sign (x) indicates the distinctive and emphatic article “ha.”
The (+) (representing a hand pointing @) indicates the objective or accusative article “eth,” which points out an object to the mind.
Both combined (¥).
The signs, singular (-), dual (=), and plural (=), need no explanation.
The short tense, which, like the Greek aorist, expresses a point in the nee of time, past, present, or future, is ‘shown by a point or dot (+).
The long tense, expressive of continuance, is shown by a line (-), to which the Antec (is added (+), to distinguish it from a hyphen.
The present is shown by the upright stroke ('), and the participle by the combination of the signs (' and ~) together (+), indicating continuation in the present.
DIVINE’ TITLES.
ee ASS
A NAME or title is expressive of nature and character. Each separate title of God may be regarded as one letter, complete indeed in itself, yet, when arranged and combined together, spelling out in full the one grand and wondrous Name of the God of hie Bible.
EL.
The title Ex (e~God, singular).occurs about 250 times.
The first occurrence is in Gen. xiv. 18, 19, 20, 22, “ Most High ~God (El), possessor of =heaven and earth.”
El signifies “strong,” “first.” It is the title which shows God to be the Mighty One, the First Great Cause of all.
This title is generally connected with some one or more of the Divine attributes or perfec- tions ; as—
“ Almighty ~God.” Gen. xvii. 1.
“Everlasting ~-God.” Gen. xxi. 33.
“ & jealous ~God.” Ex. xx, 5.
«A -God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is He.” Deut. xxxii. 4,
“A great —God, a mighty and a terrible.” Deut. x. 17.
“The living ~God.” Josh. iii. 10.
“A merciful -God.” Deut. iv. 31
“A faithful -God.” Deut. vii. 9.
“A mighty and terrible ~God.” Deut. vii. 21.
The persons of the Godhead are three—Father, Son, and Spirit ; but in nature and essence God is one.
Each attribute of God is infinite—one infinite eternal love, one infinite almighty power, and so on; hence the attributes are connected generally with the name for God, EI, in the singular number.
ELOAH.
Enoau (e? -God, singular), from AuLAH, to worship, to adore, presents God as the one supreme object of worship, the Adorable One.
Tt oceurs about 56 times. :
First, in Deut. xxxii. 15,“Then he forsook Eloah, which made him” ; again, v. 17, “ They sacrificed to devils, not to ‘Eloah. ” Tt is very frequently used in the Book of Job.
~ ELAH, or ELAHAH.
The corresponding title to the Hebrew word Eloah is in the Chaldee language Evan (e2-God, singular) or ELAHAH, emphatic. It is found in the Books of Ezra and Daniel 77 times, and always in the singular. ; 5
The Chaldee portions of the Scriptures occur in Ezra and Daniel, with one verse in Jere- miah (ch. x. 11). Thus the record of Israel’s captivity is nwrought in the Sacred Word.
ELOHIM. Exon (=God, plural of Eloah) occurs about 2500 times ; first, in Gen. i. 1, “In the beginning =God created the heavens and the earth.”
Here it is joined to a verb in the singular, “=God (Elohim, plural) -created ” (singular), and shows Trinity acting in unity.
It also frequently occurs with adjectives, pronouns, and verbs in the plural. “Gen, i, 26.—:
278833
vl DIVINE TITLES (continued).
“ And =God said, Let Us =make (plural) man in Our -image” (singular), Gen. iii. 22—“as one of Us.” Gen. xx. 13—“ When =God =caused me to wander.” Josh. xxiv. 19—* He is a =holy =God ” (plural).
The Chaldee form ELAHNAYAN occurs in Jer. x. 11, applied to false gods.
JEHOVAH.
JEuovau ('The Lord). The title Jehovah occurs about 7000 times, but in the A.V. it is generally rendered “the Lorp,” and only occasionally “ Jehovah,” as Ex. vi. 3; Ps. Ixxxiii. 18; Isa. xii, 2; xxvi.4. It is also found in combination with another word, as Jehoyah-jireh, Gen. xxii. 14; Jehovah-nissi, Ex. xvii. 15 ; Jehovah-shalom, Judg. vi. 24, in all 7 times. It is rendered “Lorp” 6800 times ; Gop 800 times.
It first occurs, in connexion with Elohim, in Gen. ii. 4, “1 The Lorp =God (Jehovah Elohim) made.” It first is used alone, Gen. iy. 1, 3.
The signification is—H&r THAT ALWAYS WAS, THAT ALWAYS IS, AND THAT EVER IS TO COME. We have it thus translated and interpreted in Rey. i. 4, “From Him ~x+which is” (present participle, the Ever-existing One), “and which was” (imperfect tense, expressing continuance in the past), “and x+which is to come” (present participle, the Coming One, ever to come),
It is a combination in marvellous perfection of the three periods of existence in one word— the future, the present, and the past.
First, YEU, “He will_be,” long tense; second, HovE, “being,” participle; third, HAHYAH, “He was,” short tense used in the past.
Taking the three first letters of YEHi, Yeu, the two middle letters of hOVe, ov, and the two last letters of hahyAH, au, we have YEHOVAH, or JEHOVAH, in full YEH-Ov-AH.
I*AM THAT I tAM.
EHYAH ASHER EHYEH. Literally, “I will be that I will be,” Ex. iii. 14. But as the so-called
future or long tense expresses not simply the future, but also and especially continuance, the force is, “I continue to be, and will be, what I continue to be, and will be.”
EHYEH, “I 'AM,” literally, “I will be,” Ex. iii. 14. But in force and meaning, “I that ever will be”; “the Ever-existing One.”
JAH. Jau (*hthe Lorp). This title occurs 49 times, and only in the Books of Exodus, Psalms, and Isaiah.
Its first occurrence is in Ex. xy. 2, “'h The Lorp (Jah) is my strength and song.”
It is often associated with the words “Praise ye” in the word HALLELUJAH, “Praise ye Jah.”
This title is expressive of eternal existence. It is the title of God, as inhabiting eternity, to whom past, present, and future is one eternal Now.
It is composed of the first and last letters of the name JEHOyYAH or YEHOYAH, YH, with the .
central vowel A,—Jah, or Yah.
It is a sublime title, see Ps. lxviii. 4, “Extol Him that rideth upon the heavens” (or the void spaces of infinitude) “by His name Jan” (the eternal One), “and rejoice before Him.”
The word for heavens here is not the usual word, but a word expressive of desolateness— space untenanted and void. Infinitude and eternity are indwelt by Him.
The title Jan or YAu is at once one of the sublimest yet simplest of the Divine names. “The simplest form of speech which infant lips can try,” yet expressive of God’s inflnitude.
“EL =SHADDAY.
-En =Suappay (“God =Almighty, or ~God =All Sufficient); ~Ex, ~God, singular; =SHADDAY, either from Suappip, almighty, strong, or from SHappAy, the breasts.
This title combines the singular title “Eu, with the plural title =Suappay.
It occurs in combination, “God Almighty,” or, “the Almighty God,” 7 times; and alone, “the Almighty,” 41 times. Chiefly in the Book of Job. Its first occurrence is in Gen. xvii. 1, “Tam the =Almighty ~God.”
ADON.
Avon (“~Lord,” singular), Lord, Master, Possessor, or Proprietor. The root either DUN, to rule, govern, judge, or from ADEN, a base.
AvON occurs about 30 times. First occurrence, in Ex. xxiii, 17, “Three times in the year all thy males shall_appear before the ADON JEHOVAH.”
DIVINE TITLES (continued). Vil
ADONAHY.
Aponany (“a=Lord,” plural), Lord, or Master. In this form used only as a Divine title ; different from ADONAY, plural of ApDON. The one is ADONAHY, the other apONAY.
ApoNnAuy occurs about 290 times. First occurrence, Gen. xy. 2,8, “And Abraham said, ADONAHY JEHOVAH.”
JEHOVAH TITLES.
JEHOVAH-HOSEENU, “Jehovah our Maker.” Ps. xcv. 6.
JEHOVAH-JIREH, “Jehovah will see,” or “provide.” Gen. xxii. 14.
JEHOVAH-RopHECA, “Jehovah that healeth thee.” Ex. xy. 26.
JEHOVAH-Nissi, “Jehovah my banner.” Ex. xvii. 15.
JEHOVAH-MEKADDISHKEM, “Jehovah that doth sanctify you.” Ex. xxxi, 13. Ley, xx. 8; xxi. 8; xxii. 9, 16,32. Ezek. xx. 12.
JEHOVAU-ELOHEEND, “Jehovah our God.” Ps. xcix. 5, 7, 9.
JEHOVAH-ELOHEKA, “Jehovah thy God.” Ex. xx. 2, 5, 7.
JEHOVAH-ELOHAY, “Jehovah my God.” Zech. xiv. 5.
| JEHOVAH-SHALOM, “Jehovah send peace.” Judg. vi. 24.
JEHOVAH-TSEBAHOTH, “Jehovah of hosts.” 1 Sam. i. 3, etc.
JEnovAH-Rout, “Jehovah my shepherd.” Ps. xxiii. 1.

JEHOVAH-TSIDKEENU, “Jehovah our righteousness.” Jer. xxiii. 6; xxxiii. 16.
JEHOVAH-SHAUMMAH, “Jehovah is there.” Ezek, xlviii. 35.
IMPORTANT DISTINCTIONS BETWEEN WORDS. Worps For “Man.”
Apam, Heb. anpaum, from AHDAM, to be red, ruddy. Often used collectively. (« man.) Isu, an individual, man of high degree. Often used collectively. (iman.)
Enos, frail, mortal man, from AHNASH, incurable, mortal. (¢man.)
ANAHSHIM, plural of ENOSH, also frequently plural of isu. (“ man.)
GEBER, strong_man, from GAHBAR, to be strong. (s man.)
Metrum, few in number, or mortal. Only used in the plural. (mmen.)
OTHER WORDS OF FREQUENT USE.
CoNGREGATION, Heb. HEDAH, from YAHAD, to appoint, describes a general congregation, inclusive of all.
ASSEMBLY, Heb. KAHAHL, from KAHAL, to call together ; an assembly, local and partial.
Tent, Heb. OHEL.
TABERNACLE, Heb, MISHCAN, a dwelling-place, from SHAHCAN, to dwell.
“TENT OF THE CONGREGATION” is the term used by the Holy Ghost, never “Tabernacle of the Congregation,” as frequently but erroncously rendered.
The term “TENT OF THE CONGREGATION,” or, tent of meeting by appointment, or at appointed seasons, Heb. OHEL MOHEED, is connected with the assembling of the people: TABERNACLE, Heb. MISHCAN, is suggestive of the presence of God, according to Ex. xxv. 8, “Let them make Me a sanctuary ; that I may dwell among them.”
t
viii. THE HEBREW ARTICLES.
THE HEBREW ARTICLES. (The fly-leaf at the end of the Old Testament will keep the signs before the eye.)
The importance of noticing the presence or absence of the Hebrew articles cannot be over-estimated, and this will become more and more apparent in. proportion as attention is given to them. :
The definite article “ha” defines or distinguishes, and is somewhat similar to the English word “the,” The sign chosen to express ha is (x), as being the most simple that could be found.
The objective or accusative article “eth” points out something as an object before the mind, or clse the object on which an action terminates. It cannot in general be rendered by the word “the.” The sign used for eth is (~), representing a hand pointing.
The two articles are frequently combined in the Hebrew, as in Gen. i. 1, “God created «the heavens and sthe earth.” The objective article eth is supplied by the sign (+), and the definite article ha is translated “the.” This may be rendered “These very heavens, and this very earth.” Comp. Jer. x. 11.
When both are combined, but not translated, they are indicated thus (%), as in Gen, xii. 7, “xthis Xland.” Here the word “this” is rendered more emphatic by ha being prefixed before it, and “land” doubly emphatic by eth ha, two articles being inserted in the original.
The absence of the article in the Original is indicated by the word “the” in italics, as in xen. i. 1, “In (the) beginning.” Here the absence of the article leayes the time of creation indefinite ; in fact it carries us back into the boundless ages of eternity.
Sometimes when the article is omitted in the Hebrew, the omission is characteristic; that is, the word without the article gives its character to that with which it is connected. Compare Ex. xviii. 21, “Such as fear God” (without any article)—i. e, God-fearers—with Gen. xlii. 18, “For ¥ fear xGod” (with both articles)—i.e. *God Himself is the object of my fear.
When the article is 1mpLiep by the construction of the Hebrew, in what is called “the construct state,” it is connected by a Low hyphen with the word to which it belongs, as in the word “sons” in Gen. vii. 13, “The_sons_of Noah.”
In genealogies, the objective article “eth” (-) is in Hebrew employed in precisely the same way as the accusative article “ton” in Greek, namely on the first mention of a proper name For example, compare Gen. y. 6-12 with Matt. i. 2-13. .
Gen. y. 6, “And Seth lived a hundred and five years, and begat (eth) “Enos,
v. 9, And Enos lived ninety years, and begat (eth) -Cainan.
». 12. And Cainan lived seventy years, and begat (eth) -“Mahalaleel.”
Matt. i. 2, “Abraham begat (fon) “Isaac; and Isaac begat (ton) Jacob; and Jacob begat (ton) -Judas and his brethren.”
In neither case can the English word “the” be inserted, but the sign used with the first mention of the name specially points out the individual.
THE NUMBERS.
The NuMBERS in Hebrew are—Singular, (-) one; Dual, (=) two: and Plural, (=) three or - more. As in Gen. i. 1:— -created, singular. =heavens, dual. =God, plural. Unless the numbers are thus marked, the English reader has often no means of distinguish- ing them. The variation of number in the first verse of the Bible is of deep import and may help in directing attention to these signs throughout.
THE HEBREW TENSES. ix
EMPHATIC PRONOUNS.
In Hebrew, as in some other languages, the PRONOUNS are for the most part combined with the verb; but where they stand alone they are EmMpuATIC. These emphatic pronouns are distinguished by Old English letters. Examples :—
Gen. iv. 9, “Am = my brother's keeper?”
Gen. iii. 15, “ Titou shalt_bruise.”
Gen. iii. 16, “He shall_rule.”
Ley. i. 3, “ He shall_offer it.”
Just as we in speaking are often greatly helped by emphasis, so is it in reading, as in Cain’s question, by laying stress on the word E. See also Mait. v. 22, 28, 82, 34, and many other instances.
THE HEBREW TENSES.
In Hebrew the TENSES are two, the sHorT (+) and the tone (*).
The TIMES Of OCCURRENCE are three, PAST, PRESENT, and FUTURE.
The sHoRT TENSE (+) is used either in the past, present, or future; its natural place being in the past, hence it has been called the past tense.
The LONG TENSE (') may be used either in the past, the present, or the future; its natural place is in the future; therefore it has been called the future tense.
Strictly speaking, however, the terms past and future tenses are not applicable: for instance, in the first chapter of Genesis, the short or so-called past tense is used in the past only 9 times, and as an imperative twice; but the long or so-called future is used in the past 45 times, and in the future not at ail!
And in the second chapter the so-called past tense is used in the past but 8 times, whereas the so-called future tense is used in the past 33 times, and once in the present, but in the future only twice!
The suorT tense (*) expresses COMPLETENESS, DECISION, OF CERTAINTY, whether used in the past, present, or future.
The Lone tense (+) expresses CONTINUANCE either in the past, present, or future.
The cHARACTER of the tense, whether short or long, and however used, always remains unchanged.
PRESENT TIME is indicated in Hebrew either by the omission of the verb, the use of the participle, or by the word yeesh.
The sigNs employed to distinguish the tenses in “The Newberry Bible” are (+) SHORT; (*) Lone; (') PRESENT TIME; (+) PARTICIPLE.
The Hebrew letter “vaw,’ which also represents the conjunction “and,” performs an important part in the Hebrew Scriptures.
It has been styled the “vaw conversive ;” but inasmuch as when added to the short tense in the past, it makes no change; when added to the long tense used in the future it leaves the tense unaltered; and since it never changes the short tense into the long or the long tense into the short, the term “coayersive” will not strictly apply.
The “vaw” is employed in the Hebrew Scriptures for the purpose of bringing in “THE CONTINUANCE, OF PERMANENCY” of the long tense into narratives of the past, or for adding the decision and certainty of the short tense to promises and predictions in the FUTURE.
This use of the “vaw” is indicated in “The Large Print” and “Portable” Editions of “The Newberry Bible;” but for the sake of simplicity the “vaw” sign is omitted in this version.
EXAMPLES OF THE USE OF THE SHORT AND LONG TENSES.
Ps. i. 1, “Blessed is the man that -walketh not in the_counsel_of the =ungodly, Nor «standeth in the_way_of sinners, Nor -sitteth in the_seat_of the =scornful.”
Here before -walketh, -standeth, -sitteth, the sign of the suort tense (:) is given, implying that in neither case is the action continued.
». 2, “And in His law tdoth_he_meditate day and night.” Here before 'doth_he_meditate the sign of the Lone tense is given, to express that this meditation is continuous and habitual.
v. 3, “And he «shall_be like a tree planted by the_rivers_of =water.” Here before «shall_be the sign of the sHort tense expresses certainty, i.e. And he shall AssuREDLY be.
x THE HEBREW TENSES.
THE IMPERATIVE MOOD.
Where a command is preceded by the sign (+), it implies decision and promptitude. Where a command is preceded by the sign (t), it indicates continuation. Ps. xxxvii, 8 illustrates both.
“sCease from anger, and forsake wrath:” Cease at ONCE, and forsake AT ONCE.
“rFret not thyself in-any_wise to do evil:” Do not go on fretting.
THE PARTICIPLE.
The PARTICIPLE expresses continuous action in the present. It is indicated by the sign (+) ; the upright stroke marking the present, and the line beneath continuation. As in Ps. xiv. 2, “To see if there_were_any +that_did_understand, and seek -=God,” 7.e. understanding and seeking God. It is often used as a noun, either with or without the article. With the article, as in Ps. Ixviii. 4, “*Extol x+Him_that rideth upon the heavens.” Without the article, as in Gen. iv. 2, “ And Abel was +a keeper_of sheep, but Cain was -a tiller_of the ground.”
CORRECT AND UNIFORM RENDERINGS.
Words imperfectly or variously rendered are CORRECTED AND HARMONIZED in the margin; or where words employed in the text are suggestive of other and helpful meanings these are given, as far as possible. Words occurring in the Original, but omitted in the translation, are supplied in the margin and denoted by a caret (,).
