Description

This book relates to the most basic task of biblical studies: understanding and interpreting the ancient text. John Cook, a leading expert in Biblical Hebrew, describes the system of Hebrew verbs in a way that provides students with an understanding of the grammar and develops their skills at interpreting and translating the Hebrew of the Old Testament. Cook has spent a quarter of a century working on the Biblical Hebrew verbal system. Building on and simplifying the author's much-discussed technical work, this book offers an accessible linguistic treatment of the Biblical Hebrew verb in all its facets. Cook illustrates the analyses with over 250 example passages, plus many more footnoted references. The examples range from individual clauses and verses to longer portions to show how the verb forms interact with each other in larger stretches of text. A glossary of linguistic terms further facilitates understanding of the book's linguistic analyses. The Biblical Hebrew Verb will be useful as a supplementary textbook in both grammar and exegesis courses.
