ἐν πνεύματι κρίσεως] After these words, the clause καὶ πνεύματι καύσεως is found in all MSS. except A, and 106, which not seldom supports readings of A otherwise singular. We may compare Aesch. Agam. 849. ἤτοι κεάντες ἦ τεμόντες πειρασόμεσθα πήματος τρέψαι νόσον. 5. καὶ ἥξει, καὶ ἔσται] LXX. seem to have read ABBREV ‘and come’ for ABBREV ‘and will create’: and ABBREV ‘and it shall ABBREV ‘the Lord.’ The sentence is then continued with There is some resemblance to Psalm 1. 3. πᾶς τόπος] The sentence is hardly grammatical as it stands; for if πᾶς τόπος is the subject to ἔσται the clause appears unmeaning, and we should expect πάντα τόπον as object to σκιάσει, ἔσται meaning merely ‘it shall be,’ i.e. come to pass, as for instance in vii. 18, 21, 23. But σκιάσει is an addition of the LXX., and the sentence would be better without it, περικύκλῳ being then nominative. As the text stands, however, πᾶς τόπος is probably a cams pendent, filling the place of another object to σκιάσει, and perhaps changed to the nom. by the influence of ἔσται preceding, aided by the general influence syntax. τὰ περικύκλῳ] Either a paraphrase of Heb. ‘her assemblies,’ or possibly a misreading of ABBREV as some form from the root ABBREV . καπνοῦ] LXX., against Heb. accents, connects the smoke with the fire, and some authorities take the Heb. so. For the mention of smoke, cf. Exod. xix. 18, Psalm xxviii. 8; Kay compares Song of Sol. iii. 6 and notices the absence of any mention of smoke in Exod. xl. Numb. ix.
