The 134 Passages Where The Sopherim Altered "Jehovah" to "Adonai".

   Out of extreme (but mistaken) reverence for the Ineffable Name "Jehovah", the ancient custodians of the Sacred Text substituted in many places "Adonai" (see Appendix 4. viii. 2). These, in the Authorized Version and Revised Version, are all printed "Lord". In all these places we have printed it "LORD", marking the word with an asterisk in addition to the note in the margin, to inform the reader of the fact.
   The official list given in the Massorah (§§ 107-15, Ginsburg's edition) contains the 134.
