Note 661 — Chapter X
Evelyn Abbott translation
Nöldeke ("Untersuchungen," s. 62 ff.) proves that Levit. i.-xxvi. 2, and xxvii., with the exception of a few additions, especially cc. xviii.-xx. belong to the first text; and De Wette-Schrader ("Einleitung," s. 286 ff.) proves the same for nearly the whole book. Moreover, he shows at length, pp. 265, 266, that many of the ceremonial ordinances and the faith of the land in general goes back to Moses, or the Mosaic times.
