( From p . 454 , 1837 . ) TO THE EDITOR . DEAR SIR AND BROTHER . —I have read with attention the reply of Brother Aarons , and admire the research he has evinced , yet he has not satisfied me of the correctness of the example in question . I still contend , that when so distinct and pointed a reference is made
to any passage , as the following expression so emphatically implies , " Again , in the 90 thPsalm , " & c . & c , it is necessary to confine ourselves implicitly to the very words of the text ; if we do not , the value of the quotation is lost . I cannot fold , in auy of the authorities which I have beeu able to consult , that DDV has ever the sense of " day" simply , attached to it . The root of DIDVj according to Buxtorfis QVtheora day ; and
, , , , DDV is formed from it by adding D m the same manner as QlDNj truly , is formed from pN , truth ; and , consequently , cannot be considered in any way as expressive of " day" in its simple sense . Buxtorf , Parkhurst , and others , give the following renderings of DDV : daily , in the day time , by day , every day ; and we see in the latter clause ' of the 2 nd verse of the 1 st Psalm , how either may be used as correctly expressive of its meaning .
nT 7 i DDV x \ yft imirai And in his law doth he meditate , daily , in the day time , by day , or every day , and by night . Having thus endeavoured to prove the soundness of the objections I made to the example in question , I trust I shall be excused by your readers , if I have been too tenacious in asserting , that in quotations we ought to adhere to the very words contained in them . I remain , dear Sir and Brother , Your ' s Fraternally , Sheerness , Feb . 26 , 1838 . J . S . KEDDELL .
