Oxford, where he spent two years. At the See also:age of twenty-eight he accepted the See also:chair of
See also:Hebrew at Saumur, and twenty years afterwards was appointed See also:professor of theology. Amongst his See also:fellow lecturers were See also:Moses See also:Amyraut and Josue de la See also:Place. As a Hebrew scholar he made a See also:special study of the See also:history of the Hebrew See also:text, which led him to the conclusion that the vowel points and accents are not an See also:original See also:part of the Hebrew See also:language, but were inserted by the Massorete See also:Jews of See also:Tiberias, not earlier than the 5th See also:century A.D., and that the See also:primitive Hebrew characters are those now known as the Samaritan, while the square characters are Aramaic and were substituted for the more See also:ancient at the See also:- TIME (0.

time of the captivity. These conclusions were hotly contested by Johannes See also:Buxtorf, being in conflict with the views of his See also:father, Johannes Buxtorf See also:senior, notwithstanding the fact that See also:Elias Levita had already disputed the antiquity of the vowel points and that neither See also:Jerome nor the See also:Talmud shows any acquaintance with them. His second important See also:work, Critica Sacra, was distasteful from a theological point of view. He had completed it in 1634; but owing to the fierce opposition with which he had to contend, he was only able to See also:print it at See also:Paris in 165o, by aid of a son, who had turned See also:Catholic. The various readings in the Old Testament text and the See also:differences between the ancient versions and the Massoretic text convinced him that the See also:idea of the integrity of the Hebrew text, as commonly held by Protestants, was untenable. This amounted to an attack on the verbal See also:inspiration of Scripture. See also:Bitter, however, as was the opposition to his views, it was not See also:long before his results were accepted by scholars.
Cappel was also the author of Annotationes et See also:Commentarii in Vetus Testamentum, Chronologia Sacra, and other biblical See also:works, as well as of several other See also:treatises on Hebrew, among which are the Arcanum Punctuations revelatum (1624) and the Diatriba de veris el antiquis Ebraeorum literis (1645).
