A critical edition of the Samaritan Pentateuch is one of the most urgent desiderata of Hebrew Bible research. The present volume on Leviticus is the first out of a series of five meant to fill this gap. It provides a diplomatic edition of the five books of the Samaritan Torah, based on the oldest preserved Samaritan manuscripts.Throughout the entire work, the Samaritan Hebrew text as gathered from 30 different manuscripts is compared with further Samaritan witnesses (esp. the Samaritan Targum, the Samaritan Arabic translation, and the oral Samaritan reading tradition) as well as with non-Samaritan witnesses of the Pentateuch, especially the Masoretic text, the Dead Sea Scrolls, and the Septuagint, creating an indispensable resource and tool not only for those working with the Samaritan Pentateuch, but for any scholar interested in textual criticism of the Hebrew Bible in general, and particularly the Pentateuch.

"Derrière ce jargon technique, les spécialistes de la critique textuelle et les exégètes du Pentateuque n'auront aucun mal à comprendre le cadeau qui, via cet ouvrage, leur est offert."
D. Luciani in: Nouvelle revue théologique 141/2 (2019), 313-314

"This new edition of the Samaritan Pentateuch (SP) is a major contribution to biblical studies. For the first time readers have access to the SP with full apparatuses documenting the SP's text, the distribution of readings, and the particulars of the Samaritan manuscript tradition. [...] Through this edition we now can peruse ehe SP wich its roots in the Qumran texts and with its connections to parallel texts outside the SP. Most of all, it shows the Samaritans' Holy Script in its Hebrew, Aramaic and Arabic traditions. This Editio Maior is a superb instrument for everyone to become acquainted with the fascinating world of the Samaritan Pentateuch."
Magnar Kartveit in: Theologische Literaturzeitung 144.10 (2019), 999-1001

"The new volume on Leviticus is one of the most important contributions to textual criticism of the Pentateuch in recent years, with great significance for Samaritan studies as well. It will surely become a reference work for all scholars
working in those fields and will stimulate research. We are all deeply grateful for the fine work already done by Schorch and his team, and we eagerly anticipate the publication of the other volumes in the series." Leonardo Pessoa Da Silva Pinto in: Biblica, 2019, Vol. 100, Iss. 2, 293-295

"The authors are to be congratulated on this enormous achievement that is a veritable blessing for all those who use SP in their research." Emanuel Tov in: Biblische Notizen. Neue Folge, 2020, Nr. 185, 142-143
