This analysis examines a Masorah Parva note in L to clarify its implications about רעואל (Reuel) in the biblical text.
The Masoretic note in BHS on the word וצבאו (and his host) in Num 2:15 is an attempt to correct a note in L associated with the word רעואל: (Reuel) in 2:14. The necessity of such a “correction,” however, is obviated by a proper understanding of the Masorah Parva note in L itself.
