Overview

Excerpt from Collation of an Indian Copy of the Hebrew Pentateuch: With Preliminary Remarks; Containing an Exact Description of the Manuscript, and a Notice of Some Others (Hebrew and Syriac) The ms. Here collated derives its importance principally from the country where it was discovered, and the class of Jews from whom it was procured. The learned Dr. Buchanan, while in India, was attentive to the investigation of the History and Literature of the Christians and Jews in those parts of the East*; for which purpose he travelled from Calcutta to Cape Comorin by land, and made excursions in the interior of that extensive peninsula, where he met with Jewish colonies.
