page 109 note 1 See his Side Lights on New Testament Research (Section VI.). Some critics would exempt the New Testament text from the hand ofthe emender; but why, provided the conjecture is good and carefully follow the ductus literarum? Two excellent conjectures occur to mind here: one in John xix. 29, where for ὐσσώπ (=hyssop) (which makes no sense) read, with Camerarius, ὑσσῷ (=a spear); another in Acts xvii. 14, where for π τν θλασσαν read π τν Θεσσλαν. But hasty conjectures are always to be avoided; as Jebb pertinently says: ‘ Rash conjecture constantly arises from defective understanding.’
