This scrupulous study foregrounds an often forgotten element of the
Masoretic texts of these important prophetic chapters: the
Masoretic systems of indicating smaller and larger parts of the
text through the use of spaces and accents. The Masoretes were not
only transmitters of the biblical text but also exegetes and
interpreters of it, so taking the Masoretic text divisions
seriously should be an essential part of our contemporary exegesis.
That is not to say, however, that the Masoretic text divisions
should be followed uncritically; de Bruin compares the Masoretic
delimitation of textual units with his own structural analysis of
the text based on its internal characteristics, as well as with the
text division in other ancient manuscripts of Isaiah 1-12. He
concludes that such comparisons show the reliability of the
Masoretic system and its value for modern exegetes.
