From: "Pastor Mark Eddy"
>Ps 39:7 which says that the three major LXX uncial manuscripts (B, S
[=aleph in the N-A Greek NT], and A) all have the word SWMA, as in  Hebr.
10:5. As support for the reading WTIA, the footnote simply has "Ga". The
"Explanation of Symbols" section doesn't list "Ga" so I don't know what it
means. Does somebody tell me what "Ga" stands for.


My little green handout of sigla (i.e. abbreviations, symbols, and signs )
that comes with Rahlfs has under III Versions: Ga = Psalterium Gallicanum,
which means we just entered the world of Latin.

There are two traditional complete Psalters by St. Jerome: The Psalterium
Gallicanum and the Psalterium juxta/iuxta Hebraicum.
