Psalm 78/Notes/Grammar.v. 69a.64577

v. 69a – For the alternative revocalization רֵמִים for the MT's וַיִּ֣בֶן כְּמוֹ־רָ֭מִים מִקְדָּשׁ֑וֹ, see the LXX (= Gall.), Hebr. "like a wild ox" and TgPs' "like the horn of a wild ox" (ὡς μονοκερώτων; similitudinem monoceroton; היך קרנא דרימנא;). The Syr. and both Aquila and Symmachus, however, read the expected "high place" (ܒܢܐ ܥܠ ܪܘܡܐ ܡܩܕܫܗ; ὁμοίως ὑψηλοῖς; ὡς τὰ ὑψηλὰ), as the MT. The orthographic inclusion of the aleph, which is expected of רֵמִים/רְאֵמִים (cf. Pss 29:6; 92:11) but not רָמִים, is found in Kennicott manuscripts 121?, 128 (see VTH, vol 4, 376).
