Excerpt from Sayings of the Jewish Fathers: Comprising Pirqe Aboth in Hebrew and English, With Notes and Excursuses
The Second Edition of Dibre Aboth ha-Olam or Sayings of the Jewish Fathers may be shortly described as a reprint of the work as published in 1877, with a section of Additional Notes. Interspersed with the reprint are insertions in square brackets, a few things are omitted, and short new notes fill up pages 26, 41, 77, 98.
An Appendix not yet published contains the Catalogue of Manuscripts referred to in the Introduction, which was announced as undertaken "with especial reference to disputed readings," followed by critical Notes on the Text of Aboth. It is complete as first planned, but awaits a supplement describing Manuscripts examined or to be examined by Mr Schechter, Reader in Talmudic and Rabbinic in the University of Cam bridge, to whose learning and acumen I am indebted for the suggestion of additions and improvements throughout the work.
