Hi Schmuel,

Christopher, does your dissertation and research go into these issues in depth? Do you consider in your book also how the tiqqune sopherim question affects the basic underlying question as to whether the Masoretic Text represents the "original" text.

The short answer is "no." My dissertation and the book that resulted after most of the "dissertationese" was removed focus on a reading of the "canonical form" (so to speak) of Genesis 12-36. I addressed the tiqqune soferim issue only with specific regard to Genesis 18:22. As such, my book doesn't really fit on your bibliographic list, as kind as it was of you to include it. :-)
