Literally, "a book of the law of the Lord, by the hand of Moses," i.e, as Dr. Kennicott understands it, "in the handwriting of Moses;" for, says he, though there are fifteen places in the Old Testament which mention the "Law of Moses," and "book of Moses," yet this one place only mentions "the book of the law in, or by, the hand of Moses."

Michaiah, [MŒykayeh–w <\\See definition 04321\\>,] as he is named in the parallel passage, is here called [MŒykƒh <\\See definition 04318\\>,] Michah, merely by the omission of [Yƒhh <\\See definition 03050\\>,] {yah,} one of the Divine names.

Asaiah <06222> [Asaiah.]

This variation only exists in the translation; the original being uniformly Asaiah, or rather, Asayah.
