Summary: This volume starts to discuss the so far unstudied period from the apparent stabilization of the Hebrew biblical text until the standardization reflected in the oldest manuscripts of the Masoretic text. What happened from the time of the standardization of the consonantic text until the appearance of the first Masoretic codices? How was the biblical text preserved in the meantime? WHat about the body of notes that makes up the Masorah formed? How to explain the diversity of the textual traditions contained in the Masorah, and last but not least, is it consistent with the idea of a text established and standardized centuries before?
