Clearly there are cases where emendation is overused, Toy in Proverbs or in a
more modern day commentary Dahood on Psalms. The basic principle I use in
OTTC is to understand the various variants, a task that is not always easy.
This is not a MT fundamentalism, but a more cautious approach, similar to
the one Kevin is suggesting.
