Thesis 28.29

Latin

Nomen dei quatuor litterarum, quod est ex mem, sade, pe, et sa/de, regno Dauidis debet appropriari.

Copy-text: Farmer 1998, line 18082; 1486 print folio <13v/14r>

The compositor's line-break hyphenation of 'sade' as 'sa/de' is a repair, not a word.

English

David's kingdom should be assigned the four-letter divine name formed from mem, tzade, pe, and tzade.

Sense checked against farmer1998:18135; reworded to avoid near-identity with the published English at that line.
