The American Journal Of Semitic Languages And Literatures Vol 16 Classic Reprint

Excerpt from The American Journal of Semitic Languages and Literatures, Vol. 16 Behold God is my salvation; I will trust and will not be afraid for J ah the Lord is my strength and song, and he is become my salva tion. Therefore with joy shall ye draw water out of the wells of salvation. Salvation belongeth unto the Lord; thy blessing be upon thy people. (selah.) The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. (selah) The Jews had light and joy and gladness and honor. So be it with us, etc. It is evident that, whether or not the compilers of the Jewish Liturgy understood (or thought that they understood) the mean ing of 7150 they regarded it as a component of the sacred text, and therefore never to be omitted. But in addition to these examples there are some eight or nine other instances of the use of 7150 which are not so easily explained.
