BDB2037
הַל
Deut 32:6
הַל יְהוָֺה תִּגְמְלוּזֹֿאת (so v. d. H and other
editions) The reading here became early a subject of dispute, and
MSS
. and editions vary accordingly. Some follow the school of Nehardea, and read הַל יְהוָֺה;
others (so Norzi) follow the school of Sora, and read הַ לְיהוָֺה
; others (so Hahn) have הַלְיהוָֺה. Were הַל original, it would be an
interrogative particle = Arabic
[untranscribed source text 1227], for which elsewhere הֲ is always found. The other punctuations would also each
be highly irregular. The true reading is undoubtedly (הַלְיַהְוֶה) הֲלַיהוָֺה. compare De RossiVar. Lect.
on the passage; and on the possible origin of the anomaly,
