Footnote

“And Aaron,” MLXXVg. In M the words thus translated are marked with extraordinary points by the Sopherim. Moses was commanded to do the numbering, but since Aaron took part with Moses, some ancient copyist inserted “and Aaron” in the text. Later the scribes put dots over the words rather than take them out. SamSy and 11 Heb. mss omit. See App 2A.
