Providing a formal syntax of the use of Hebrew accents, this study defines the syntactic grammar of each accent as it functions within the domain of the verse. By means of computer analysis, each rule is exhaustively tested in the Pentateuch or poetic books. Part One of the study examines the accents in prose, while Part Two explores the accents in the poetic books of Job, Psalms, and Proverbs. Also examined are the classic work of William Wickes, and contemporary Israel Yeivin.

Provides the fundamental features of the Tiberian Hebrew accents, focusing on their divisions and exegetical roles.

The three jobs of the accents -- The accents and sense, part one: the disjunctive accents -- The accents and sense, part two: the conjunctive accents -- The accents and exegesis -- The accents in the three.

Includes a general introduction to the entire concordance, a list of the accents, a summary of the frequency of the accents, and an introduction to the phrase-structure grammar. Every volume contains a separate chapter for each disjunctive accent, and a single chapter for the less common conjunctive accents.

This work is intended to serve as a user-friendly and up-to-date source of information on the morphology, syntax, semantics and pragmatics of Biblical Hebrew verbs, nouns and other word classes (prepositions, conjunctions, adverbs, modal words, negatives, focus particles, discourse markers, interrogatives and interjections). It also contains one of the most elaborate treatments of Biblical Hebrew word order yet published in a grammar. This reference grammar will be of service to students who have completed an introductory or intermediate course in Biblical Hebrew, and also to more advanced scholars seeking to take advantage of traditional and recent descriptions of the language that go beyond the basic morphology of Biblical Hebrew.
