  Hello Tyler,
 
  The Israeli pronounciation is "kaf";  isn't the Greek "kappa" its 
equivalent?
 
  Pronounciations are of course subject to change over the years.

That's what I've always thought, Uri. I'm trying to figure out if there is
some reason the second edition of Kittel's text has it as "kof"

So far it seems to be an error from the first edition that now has been
"canonized" in the second edition!
