[Mesorah] כי אין הצר שוה בנזק המלך

[Yitzchak M. Gottlieb]

All,

First—חג פורים שמח!

In talking about the מגילה with someone today, he mentioned that the reader read the word נזק twice once with a צירה on the נון and once with a סגול. Breuer’s texts and sources (Leningrad Codex) clearly have only צירה.  However, the רד”ק in ספר השורשים says clearly שש נקודות, and קורן seems to follow that.

Has anyone seen or heard of this before?  Does anyone have a copy of one of the influential printings (e.g., Leteris, Heidenheim) that have a סגול?

Zuki
