Information and Notes: Song of Songs

This is an internet image version of the Ethiopic Song of Songs. It follows Hiob Ludolf’s (1624–1704) critical edition published in Frankfurt am Main in 1701. Ludolf’s entire book is available at Google Books, where the Critical Apparatus can be found. The Ethiopic text of Song of Songs was extracted and cleaned; Ludolf’s Mendum Typographicum was corrected. Each chapter is directly accessible from the main menu (following the Septuagint chapter division; the Ethiopic division is different).
NOTE that this is not the most recent critical edition of Song of Songs; Gleave’s edition was published in 1951.
