[Greek: [Kathos gegraptai] Idou tithaemi en Sion lithon proskommatos kai petran skandalou, kai o pisteuon ep auto ou kataischunthaesetai.] _Is._ viii.14.

[Greek: kai ouch hos lithou proskammati sunantaesesthe, oude os petras ptomati.] _Is._ xxviii.16.

[Greek: Epsilon symbol] _Addition._ A few cases of addition may be quoted, e.g.
