We refer to this broadly in the title of the volume as the ‘Masoretic Tradition’. The papers are innovative studies of a range of aspects of this Masoretic tradition at various periods, many of them presenting hitherto unstudied primary sources. They focus on traditions of vocalisation signs and accent signs, traditions of oral reading, traditions of Masoretic notes, as well as Rabbinic and exegetical texts. The contributors include established scholars of the field and early-career researchers.</p> 04 00 CONTRIBUTORS .................................................................... vii PREFACE................................................................................. xi ABSTRACTS.............................................................................xv Elvira Martín-Contreras Using the Masora for Interpreting the Vocalisation and Accentuation of the Biblical Text.............................. 1 Kim Phillips The Masoretic Notes in RNL EVR II B 80+: An Initial Report................................................................. 23 Vincent D.
