APPENDIX I.

DISTRIBUTION OF THE SYRIAC NEW TESTAMENT INTO LESSONS

AS READ IN THE PUBLIC WORSHIP.

THE manuscripts of the Syriac New Testament are strangers to the modern division of the Books into Chapters and Verses: instead of which, they divide the several Books (except the Apocalypse) into reading Les sons,, which are of different lengths, but will average about fifteen of our verses.

The printed Syriac New Testaments exhibit our division into Chapters and Verses, marked commonly in the side margin. The text of the London editions of 1816 and 1826 (which were intended for circulation in the East) is divided (except the Apocalypse) into paragraphs corresponding with the reading Lessons in the common manuscripts. These Lessons are separately numbered in each Book, and the occasions are stated on which they are to be read. This distribution into reading Lessons, its correspondence with the division into Chapters and Verses, and the occasions to which the Lessons are appropriated, are contained in the following Table:—
