page 729 note 1 Hebr. , of which Eašar is a phonetic variant, not a proof that the Bab. Ea and the Hebr. Yahweh were identical (Stephens in JAOS., xlvi, 180–1).

page 729 note 2 Cf. Ranke, Personal Names, p. 127.

page 730 note 1 Hence ana bani (in i, 36b, 3–4) stands for ana pâni “ to the presence of ” and does not mean “ to the son of ” (Smith, pt. i, p. 16).

page 730 note 2 Hence the explanation of forms like usibel given by Stephens (in JAOS., xlvi 180) is inadequate.

page 731 note 1 So mu-ta-be-el-ti-in is corrected by the addition of the sigm tim to mu-ta-be-el-tim in i, 33a, 15–16 (cp. 11. 9–10).

page 731 note 2 The word beldum (in i, 7b, 16) stands for bilbum “talent” and does not mean “ principal ” (Smith, pt. i, p. 13).

page 732 note 1 Mr. Smith has corrected this mistake in R.A., xxi, 88–91. Both here and in the passage under review Mr. Smith writes i-di-in for i-din or, with a suffix, i-di- incorrectly.

page 733 note 1 Properly only the masc. occurs, but the fem. is used as a constr. form before other nouns and pronominal suffixes.

page 733 note 2 This is more likely than (Num. xix, 23).
