  • Pdf Israelian Hebrew in the Book of Amos
    ISRAELIAN HEBREW IN THE BOOK OF AMOS Gary A. Rendsburg 1.0. The Location of Tekoa The vast majority of scholars continue to identify the home vil- lage of the prophet Amos with Tekoa1 on the edge of the Judean wilderness—even though there is little or no evidence to support this assertion. A minority of scholars, the present writer included, identifies the home village of Amos with Tekoa in the Galilee— an assertion for which, as we shall see, there is considerable solid evidence. 1.1. Southern Tekoa The former village is known from several references in Chroni- cles, especially 2 Chron. 11.6, where it is mentioned, alongside Bethlehem, in a list of cities fortified by Rehoboam in Judah. See also 2 Chron. 20.20, with reference to the journey by Jehosha- to the wilderness of Tekoa’.2‘ לְמִדְב ַּ֣ר תְקֹ֑וע phat and his entourage The genealogical records in 1 Chron. 2.24 and 4.5, referencing a 1 More properly Teqoaʿ (or even Təqōaʿ), but I will continue to use the time-honoured English spelling of Tekoa. 2 See also the reference to the ‘wilderness of Tekoa’ in 1 Macc. 9.33. © 2021 Gary A.

  • Israelian Hebrew in the Song of Songs
    Israelian Hebrew in the Song of Songs Gary A. Rendsburg i. During the past 15 years I have published two monographs and more than a dozen articles on the subject of the northern dialect of ancient Hebrew, more properly termed "Israelian Hebrew" (IH). 1 Israelian Hebrew stands in contrast to the standard dialect in which most of the Bible was written, namely, the dialect of Judah in general or of Jerusalem in particular. This latter dialect should be called Judahite Hebrew (JH), which in turn equals Standard Biblical Hebrew (SBH). Most likely IH is an umbrella term, for within IH there probably were several main subdialects, such as Ephraimite, Galilean, and Gileadite, along with even more localized varieties. The continuation of IH in post-biblical times is evident in Mishnaic Hebrew (MH) - one should keep in mind that the Mishna and related texts were redacted in Sepphoris and Tiberias - notwithstanding import~nt differences ~j between IH and MH. Among the sections of the Bible treated in my studies are the Israelian material in the book of Kings, several dozen northern psalms, "The Last Words of David" in 2 Sam 23: 1-7, the blessings to the northern tribes in Genesis 49, and Nehemiah 9. In addition, two of my doctoral students, Y oon Jong Yoo and Yiyi Chen, wrote dissertations on two other northern compositions, Hosea and Proverbs, respectively.2 Other scholars have 1 The two monographs are: G. A. Rendsburg, Linguistic Evidence for the Northern Origin of Selected Psalms (SBLMS 43; Atlanta, 1990); and G. A. Rends burg, Israelian Hebrew in the Book ofKings (Occasional Publications of the Department of Near Eastern Studies and the Program of Jewish Studies, Cornell University 5; Bethesda, 2002).

If you've ever watched "Seinfeld," you probably know what I'm talking about. They NAPH Annual Meeting are actually sub-divisions, each with a Schedule 7 single entrance where a guard lets only invited guests in and, even that, after checking for photo-identification. News from Our Signposts at major intersections point Members 11 to these developments, which serve as landmarks. Directions, therefore, often In Memory 19 take the form, "Turn right at Vista Del Mar," or "Drive past Duckworth Lake," or "Let's meet at the Target behind Pleasant Acres," instead of "Go north on Westwood Ave., then turn left at the Eta Beta Rho 20 Chevron station." In fact, if you ask people where they live, they will usually name their development rather than the city or street address.

  • Hebrew Philological Notes (I)
    HEBREW PHILOLOGICAL NOTES (I) Oary A. Rendsburg Cornell University 1. n,., "Ruth" In a recent article, E. A. Knauf suggested that the name nl, "Ruth" should be correlated with the root rwt that underlies such words as Moabite ryt "offering," Sabaic rwt/ryt "decision."l Knauf also put forward the evidence of a Moabite toponym, f arut (attested in an 18th Dynasty Egyptian text) as additional support. Thus, according to Knauf, we have triple Moabite evidence: the name of Ruth, the common noun ryt attested in the Mesha Stele line 12, and the toponym farilt. With this bounty of evidence from a language so little known, Knauf stated that there is no need to look to Hebrew for an explanation of the heroine's name. The Hebrew evidence most commonly cited is the root ill' "refresh." Knauf, however, saw a grammatical problem in such a derivation because he claimed that this root could not produce a noun m, (possible products are *rewut,~, (Job 37:11), and *riyyah, but not n", according to Knauf). In this estimation he erred, however. A morphological parallel to m, in Hebrew is the common noun n,o "garment," attested only in Oen 49:11. Already Abraham ibn Ezra in the twelfth century C.E. realized that the root of this noun is swy and he pointed to the noun il19Q "veil," attested three times in Exod 34:33-35, as another noun derived from the same root.2 Cognate evidence for the correctness of ibn Ezra's view is forthcoming from Phoenician, where the forms nlO "garment" and n~'o "veil" (1) are attested.3 Since Phoenician orthography represents only consonants and not vowels, the waw in these Phoenician forms must be consonantal, and yet in the corresponding Hebrew form n,o, the waw serves merely as a mater lectionis.4 In short, based on the analogy of the derivation of "'0 "garment" from a root swy, the proper noun n" "Ruth" clearly may derive from a root rwy 1 E.
