<p class="MsoNormal">A colleague of mine has raised the following query. The work in question is
<span lang="HE" dir="RTL" style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">שאר ישוב</span><span dir="LTR"></span><span lang="HE"><span dir="LTR"></span>
</span>Yerushalayim : Yad Yitsḥaḳ Ben-Tsevi, 729 [1968].<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">“I was cataloguing a revised edition of a well-known work by Itzhak Ben Zvi, about the return of the scattered remnants of Jewish communities (English title: Remnants of ancient Jewish communities in the Land of Israel). Amazingly, all
entries in OCLC of this edition romanise the second word as ‘yishuv’, despite the source references in Isaiah 7: 3 and 10: 21, in which it is clear that the correct romanisation is ‘yashuv’.”<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Is he right? I must admit I read it as yishuv, but clearly I don’t have his level of biblical knowledge!<o:p></o:p></p>
