Jonathan:
As Alice said, "Curiouser and curiouser". (Lewis Carroll, /Alice in

I don't think it affects the exegesis in any material way. The opposite
and contrary vice to the vice of Dittography is Haplography. If one
scribe is dictating Scriptures to a whole roomful of writing scribes,
sometimes a word or phrase is duplicated; sometimes omitted. It happens.
