Isaiah 53:4
Verse 4. Surely he hath borne our griefs-"Surely our infirmities he hath borne"] Seven MSS. (two ancient) and three editions have cholayeynu in the plural number. And carried our sorrows-"And our sorrows, he hath carried them"] Seventeen MSS. (two ancient) of Dr. Kennicott's, two of De Rossi's, and two editions have the word hu, he, before sebalam, "carrieth them," in the text; four other MSS. have it in the margin. This adds force to the sense, and elegance to the construction.
