Grammarians have been unable to provide a sufficient explanation for the verbal system of Biblical Aramaic by means of the standard categories of tense and aspect. Michael B. Shepherd exposes this situation and suggests a way out of the present impasse through distributional analysis by proposing that Biblical Aramaic has a primary verbal form for narration and a primary verbal form for discourse. This simple yet comprehensive proposal holds t...

Commentators have long set the book of Daniel within the context of world history and the genre of apocalyptic literature. The present volume argues that the primary context for the book is the composition of the Hebrew Bible as a whole. Daniel in the Context of the Hebrew Bible has implications for every major hermeneutical issue in Daniel including the four kingdoms, the son of man, and the prophecy of seventy sevens. In the final analysis, ...

Analysis of inner-biblical exegesis ordinarily involves examination of the intertextual relationship between two texts within the biblical corpus. But in many cases there is an often overlooked intertext that serves as a bridge between the two texts. Such an intermediary text reads the primary text in a manner similar to the way the tertiary text reads it and supplies a missing link in a very subtle yet identifiable manner. The direction of de...

To understand biblical world making, it is important to understand how biblical books are made and read. The Textual World of the Bible explores the patterns of figuration in biblical composition and the way in which these patterns are read within the Bible (inner-biblical exegesis). This book is an excellent choice for ...

It ultimately seeks to issue a call for study of the Bible for its own sake. "Textuality and the Bible represents a serious engagement with the text of the Bible in its various textual witnesses. With...

This volume presents an Optimality-Theoretic (OT) analysis of the role of the syllable in Spanish phonology. The explanatory power of the syllable has earned it a central role in phonological theory, and this distinction has followed it into Optimality Theory. Chapter 1 divides simple and complex onsets and codas into well formed, ill formed, and unclear/marginal cases. Chapter 2 presents an OT analysis of syllabification. Chapter 3 demonstrat...
