Transcriber’s Note:

variations or inconsistent hyphenation in the text. These have been
left unchanged unless indicated below.
Words and phrases in italics are surrounded by underscores, _like

end of the book. Obvious printing errors, such as backwards, upside
down, or partially printed letters, were corrected. Final stops
missing at the end of sentences and abbreviations were added.
Diacriticals omitted or backwards in French words were corrected.
Tables were reformatted to display in handheld devices.

that: … than those of the present …
Petateuch: … Pentateuch itself …
