Oh, sod.
Bleh.
You see what I did?
This, my friends, is what is known as a Setback. It's also what's known as a Totally Classic Scribal Error That You Totally Should Have Avoided.
The bits with boxes drawn round them - אלוה is a Name of God, which means I can't erase it, and אלה is a Maybe Name of God, which I also can't erase in case it Is A Name of God.
I can fix it, it'll just involve some tedious erasing and some clever (but fiddly and somewhat fraught) knifework to avoid erasing the Divine Names. Blehhhhhh.
ויאכל תנובת שדי ושמן מחלמיש צור עם חלב כרים עם חלב כליות חטה וישמן ישרון ויבעט ויטש אלוה עשהו יקנאהו בזרים יזבחו לשדים לא אלה חדשים מקרב באו |
