The Samaritan Pentateuch is a one of the most important textual witnesses to the Pentateuch, and is essential for the academic study of the Pentateuch (particularly for textual criticism). Could we get an edition of the Samaritan Pentateuch in Hebrew? Tal's edition is a good one to go with. It is a diplomatic text that uses the Ms 6C manuscript. Alternatively, just a copy of that manuscript would also be good.

    For the curious, Logos has Von Gall's critical edition from 1918. It preceded access to additional manuscripts since then.

    From Wikipedia:

    "More recently a two volume set edited by Abraham Tal appeared featuring the first critical edition based upon all extant manuscripts containing the Targumic text."

    "If myth is ideology in narrative form, then scholarship is myth with footnotes." B. Lincolm 1999.
