[974] ii. 4-8: cf. Deut. xxxiii. 8.
[975] i. 8; Deut. xv. 21.
[976] i. 14; Lev. iii. 1, 6.
[977] iii. 5; Deut. v. 11 ff., xviii. 10, xxiv. 17 ff.; Lev. xix. 31, 33 f., xx. 6.
[978] iii. 22 Heb., iv. 4 Eng. _Law of Moses_ and _Moses My servant_ are found only in the Deuteronomistic portions of the Hexateuch and historical books and here. In P Sinai is the Mount of the Law. To the above may be added _segullah_, iii. 17, which is found in the Pentateuch only outside P and in Psalm cxxxv. 4. All these resemblances between “Malachi” and Deuteronomy and “Malachi’s” divergences from P are given in Robertson Smith’s _Old Test. in the Jewish Church_, 2nd ed., 425 ff.: cf. 444 ff.
[979] Lev. xvii.—xxvi. From this and Ezekiel he received the conception of the profanation of the sanctuary by the sins of the people—ii. 11: cf. also ii. 2, iii. 3, 4, for traces of Ezekiel’s influence.

[982] Herzfeld, Bleek, Stade, Kautzsch (probably), Wellhausen (_Gesch._, p. 125), Nowack before the arrival of Ezra, Cornill either soon before or soon after 458, Robertson Smith either before or soon after 445. Hitzig at first put it before 458, but was afterwards moved to date it after 358, as he took the overthrow of the Edomites described in chap. i. 2-5 to be due to a campaign in that year by Artaxerxes Ochus (cf. Euseb., _Chron._, II. 221).
