Excerpt from The God of Israel: A Paper Read Before the International Positivist Congress at Naples, 27th April 3rd May, 1908

One result of this is that the solution of an Old Testament puzzle is sometimes to be found in a redistribution of the letters into words. In Jeremiah xxiii,. 33, by turning three of the words into two, we get the much better rendering given in the margin of the English Revised Version, which is confirmed by the Septuagint and the Vulgate.
