Overview
The purpose of The Principal Versions of Baruch is to show conclusively that the whole book was written originally in Hebrew. Harwell shows that the Greek version, which was made by a single hand at an early date, has suffered much variation and corruption, especially in the prose part. The Old Syriac version was originally made from the Greek. Two Latin versions of the book were made: the first of these from the pre-Hexaplaric Greek, the second a later close rendering of the standard Greet text. Harwell also shows that a pre-Christian date for the Greek translation of Baruch is proved by the identity of its author with that of the Greek of Jeremiah of which was a part.
