Goldschmidt :
Das Buch Henoch aus dem Aethiopischen in
die urspricnglich hebrdische Abfassungssprache zuriickubersetzt
mil einer Finleitung und Noten versehen y 1892. This retrans-
lation is the work of a very young scholar, and, being so,
it is a creditable performance. It labours, however, under
many defects. First, it is based on Dln/s Ethiopic text,
which is very corrupt : secondly, the author appears to trans-
late at times not from the Ethiopic as he professes, but directly
from Dln.'s German translation, as in xxxvi. 3 ; xxxvii. 2 ;
lxxxix. 7, &c. : thirdly, he mistranslates occasionally familiar
phrases, possibly through carelessness : and finally, he intro-
duces conjectures into the text without any attempted justifi-
cation in the notes. Notwithstanding, we are grateful to the
author for his book, and regard it as full of promise for his
future. For my review of this book see Jewish Quarterly,
Jan. 1893, pp. 327-329.
