Ruth 2:16

The single letter a preceding the first word of 2:16, which is not paired with another a in the verse, indicates that the note refers to the entire verse.

BHS Note Hebrew Text/Retroversion Translation

MT וְגַם שֹׁל־תָּשֹׁלּוּ לָהּ

מִן־הַצְּבָתִים וַעֲזַבְתֶּם

וְלִקְּטָה וְלֹא תִגְעֲרוּ־בָהּ׃ And moreover you shall pull (some) out for her from the bundles and you will leave (it) and she will glean and you shall not rebuke her.

S The Peshitta has an omission of verse 16

The note indicates that the Syriac omits the verse. There is some sense of repetition in 2:16 of the ideas of 2:15, which says, “And Boaz commanded his young men, ‘Also among the sheaves she may glean, and you will not humiliate her.’” A scribe or the Peshitta translator probably deleted verse 16 as redundant and unnecessary. The verse is in G, though with some differences from the MT.26 There is no chance for its loss in S through haplography or its inclusion in the MT by way of dittography. The MT has the preferred reading.
