Samaritan...
"The
Samaritans now number only about
200, living in and
around Nablus, Jordan, the modern city on the site of Biblical
Samaria. Although the
Samaritans now speak Palestinian
Arabic,
they worship from a Samaritan manuscript of the Torah
(Pentateuch), the only part of the
Scriptures they recognize.
They are the descendants of non-Jewish colonists who were
moved into this region after the fall of Jerusalem to the Baby-
lonians in 586 B.C. Although partially Judaized, the Samaritans
were never accepted by the Jews. Samaritan is a form of
Palestinian (Western) Aramaic.
It is written in an alphabet
derived from the Ancient Hebrew script."--1000 Tongues, 1972

Jewish Palestine, Land of Israel.]
"A dialect of Western Aramaic
formerly spoken around Samaria, pre-
served in the Samaritan Targum, or paraphrase, of the Hebrew text made
in the 1st century B.C., according to the Samaritan tradition, or
possibly
as late as the 4th century A.D, according to western scholars."--

"efforts were being made in England for the
possession of copies,
and between the years 1620 and 1630, Archbishop
Usher obtained six MSS. from the East, of which
some were complete and others not. Five of these MSS. are still
preserved in England, but one copy
which the Archbishop presented to L. de Dieu seems to have been
lost."--1860 S. Bagster [Info only: Hebræo-
Samaritan Pentateuch.]

"The first printed edition of the Samaritan
Pentateuch was made from the Codex Oratorii (i.e. the
MS. belonging to the Oratory at Paris); it was printed by Father Morinus in
the Paris Polyglot.
This text was reprinted in the London Polyglot, with corrections from three
of the MSS. which for-
merly belonged to Usher; and so correct is this edition that a Samaritan
priest whom Maundrell
visited at Nablous, esteemed this Samaritan text equally with a MS. of his
own, which he could not
be prevailed on to part with at any price. Fisk when in Samaria saw a
relict of the very copy of the
Polyglot mentioned by Maundrell. Various readings collated from the
Samaritan MSS. were given
by Dr. Kennicott in his edition of the
Hebrew Scriptures"--1860
