Old testament marginalia in the Moscow Bible of 1663

The article discusses various types of marginal glosses of the Moscow Bible, published by the Moscow Print Yard in 1663, including textual, grammatical, and lexical glosses. Marginal glosses are considered as a tool for text criticism. Some of the glosses were borrowed from the Ostrog Bible and reflect collation with the Vulgate. Some glosses of the Moscow Bible replace the text omitted in the Ostrog Bible. The textual gaps in the Ostrog Bible do not depend on the Latin tradition and are mainly haplographic. The comparison of the Moscow Bible glosses with the readings of various Slavic sources shows that the corrections presented in the glosses were made using the Greek text without involving these sources. In the Moscow Bible glosses that do not correspond to the Ostrog Bible preference is given to the lexical and grammatical variants that calque Greek lexemes and constructions. These include elimination of dual forms and reproduction of case forms in phrases, as well as morphemic and semantic calques
