It is an interesting read which brings me to other sources (see below). I have also in my Book Collection, Memar Marqah, The Teaching of Marqah (2 Vol.) edited by John MacDonald and also Memar Marqa, Ein Samaritanischer Midrasch zum Pentateuch by David Rettig. If you have read anything on Marqah or are wondering what if it is worth purchasing, I would say YES!

Most of it aims at providing the reader with theological, didactic and philosophical teachings, artistically associated with the passages of the Torah. Here and there poetic pieces are embedded into its otherwise prosaic text. Tibåt Mårqe is attributed to the 4th century scholar, philosopher and poet, Mårqe. This publication of Tibåt Mårqe follows the monumental Hebrew edition of Ze’ev Ben-Hayyim, Tibåt Mårqe, a Collection of Samaritan Midrashim (Jerusalem 1988), based on a 16th century manuscript. Though he recognized the precedence of an earlier manuscript, dated to the 14th century, Ben-Hayyim was compelled to prefer the former, given the fragmentary state of the latter. He printed its fragments in parallel with the younger one, to which his annotations and discussions chiefly pertain. With the recent discovery of a great portion of the missing parts of the 14th century manuscript, this edition endeavors to present the older form of the composition. The present book may be relevant to people interested in literature, language, religion, and Samaritan studies. https://www.degruyter.com/viewbooktoc/product/460971?rskey=kgPRpY&result=2 Gary N.

  • Spoken Hebrew of the Late Second Temple Period According to Oral and Written Samaritan Tradition*
    SPOKEN HEBREW OF THE LATE SECOND TEMPLE PERIOD ACCORDING TO ORAL AND WRITTEN SAMARITAN TRADITION* STEFAN SCHORCH Bielefeld Three different varieties of the Hebrew language are in use among present days Samaritans: Modern Israeli Hebrew, Samaritan Neo- Hebrew,1 and Samaritan Hebrew. While Samaritan Neo-Hebrew is the language used mainly for liturgical compositions after the revival of Hebrew in the 12th century CE, Samaritan Hebrew (= SH) is the Hebrew language employed in the reading of the Torah as transmitted in the Samaritan community. The present contribution will focus on the latter only. The linguistic evaluation of SH has undergone dramatic changes over the last 50 years, especially due to the work of Zeev Ben-Hayyim.2 While Rudolf Macuch in his comprehensive “Grammatik des samaritanischen Hebräisch” (1969) tried to explain most of the peculiarities of SH as the result of inuence from the Arabic vernacular adopted by the Samaritans around the 11th century CE,3 Ben-Hayyim successfully demonstrated ———— * Thanks are due to Mr. James Harland (Bethel/Oxford) for his thoughtful comments and for correcting my English. 1 For a detailed account of the latter, see Moshe Florentin, Late Samaritan Hebrew: a linguistic analysis of its different types, Studies in Semitic languages and linguistics 43 (Leiden/Boston, 2005). 2 See especially Zeev Ben-Hayyim, The Literary and Oral Tradition of Hebrew and Aramaic Amongst the Samaritans (5 volumes) (Jerusalem, 1957–1977 [= LOT I-V]). Volume 5 contains a grammar of Samaritan Hebrew which was subsequently translated into English: Zeev Ben-Hayyim, A grammar of Samaritan Hebrew: based on the recitation of the law in comparison with the Tiberian and other Jewish traditions (revised edition in English with assistance from Abraham Tal) (Jerusalem, Winona Lake, 2000).

  • How Was the Dageš in Biblical Hebrew Pronounced and Why Is It There? Geoffrey Khan
    1 pronounced and why is it בָּתִּ ים How was the dageš in Biblical Hebrew there? Geoffrey Khan houses’ is generally presented as an enigma in‘ בָּתִּ ים The dageš in the Biblical Hebrew plural form descriptions of the language. A wide variety of opinions about it have been expressed in Biblical Hebrew textbooks, reference grammars and the scholarly literature, but many of these are speculative without any direct or comparative evidence. One of the aims of this article is to examine the evidence for the way the dageš was pronounced in this word in sources that give us direct access to the Tiberian Masoretic reading tradition. A second aim is to propose a reason why the word has a dageš on the basis of comparative evidence within Biblical Hebrew reading traditions and other Semitic languages. בָּתִּיםבָּתִּ ים The Pronunciation of the Dageš in .1.0 The Tiberian vocalization signs and accents were created by the Masoretes of Tiberias in the early Islamic period to record an oral tradition of reading. There is evidence that this reading tradition had its roots in the Second Temple period, although some features of it appear to have developed at later periods. 1 The Tiberian reading was regarded in the Middle Ages as the most prestigious and authoritative tradition. On account of the authoritative status of the reading, great efforts were made by the Tiberian Masoretes to fix the tradition in a standardized form. There remained, nevertheless, some degree of variation in reading and sign notation in the Tiberian Masoretic school. By the end of the Masoretic period in the 10 th century C.E.

  • A Book on Samaritanism and Mandaeism
    A Book on Samaritanism and Mandaeism Rainer Voigt, hrsg. /ed. Und das Leben ist siegreich!: mand!ische und samaritanische Literatur. Im Gedenken an Rudolf Macuch (1919–1993) / And Life Is Victorious: Mandaean and Samaritan Literatures: In Memory of Rudolf Macuch.Mandäistische Forschungen Band 1/Vol. 1. Wiesbaden: Harrassowitz, 2008. 288 pp., 68!. ISSN 1861-1028; ISBN 978-3-447-05178-1. This book consists of papers read before the international conference on Mandaean and Samaritan studies, held at the Freie Universität Berlin in the autumn of 2003. The conference was organised on the tenth anniversary of the death of the well-known scholar in Semitic languages and cultures, Professor Rudolf Macuch (16 October 1919 –23 July 1993). I had the honour of knowing Professor Macuch, who was my host during a research stay in Berlin, from 1 April 1985 to 31 July 1986, arranged and financed by the Alexander von Humboldt Stiftung. It was no secret that Professor Macuch was an authority in various fields of Semitic study: classical and modern Mandaean, new Syriac literature and Samaritan studies in general, and Samaritan Hebrew and Aramaic in particular (see his Grammatik des samaritanischen Hebräisch [Berlin 1969]; Grammatik des samaritanischen Aramäisch [Berlin 1982]). In addition Professor Macuch made such contributions to Arabic studies as translating the Qur<ån into Slovak. His doctoral dissertation, completed in 1948 under the direction of Professor Ján Bako¡, dealt with Slovak names and expressions in Arabic geographies. Yet Rudolf Macuch is best known for his remarkable achievements in the Mandaean language. In the 1950s he discovered a new, spoken Mandaean in Khuzistan (Handbook of Classical and Modern Mandaic [Berlin 1963]; Neumandäische Texte im Dialekt von Ahw"z [Wiesbaden 1993].

  • The Vocalization of Verbs Containing Gutturals in Tiberian and Babylonian Traditions. an Attempt of Systematic Description
    Uniwersytet Warszawski Wydział Orientalistyczny Wiktor Gębski Nr albumu: 305018 The Vocalization of Verbs Containing Gutturals in Tiberian and Babylonian Traditions. An Attempt of Systematic Description Praca magisterska na kierunku orientalistyka w zakresie hebraistyki Praca wykonana pod kierunkiem Dr Angeliki Adamczyk Dr Lidii Napiórkowskiej Zakład Hebraistyki Warszawa, maj 2018 Oświadczenie kierującego pracą Oświadczam, że niniejsza praca została przygotowana pod moim kierunkiem i stwierdzam, że spełnia ona warunki do przedstawienia jej w postępowaniu o nadanie tytułu zawodowego. Data Podpis kierującego pracą Oświadczenie autora (autorów) pracy Świadom odpowiedzialności prawnej oświadczam, że niniejsza praca dyplomowa została napisana przez mnie samodzielnie i nie zawiera treści uzyskanych w sposób niezgodny z obowiązującymi przepisami. Oświadczam również, że przedstawiona praca nie była wcześniej przedmiotem procedur związanych z uzyskaniem tytułu zawodowego w wyższej uczelni. Oświadczam ponadto, że niniejsza wersja pracy jest identyczna z załączoną wersją elektroniczną. Data Podpis autora (autorów) pracy Streszczenie The subject of the present research is the inconsistencies within the vocalization of the Tiberian and Babylonian tradition. The thesis consists of three chapters. While in the first one the general overview of the pronunciation traditions of Biblical Hebrew was given, the second one constitutes a description of the vowel systems of the selected traditions. The third chapter contains the analytical part of the thesis. The collected material included 127 verbal forms from various stems which subsequently were analysed in order to spot fluctuations demonstrated by their vowel systems and prosodic structure. As will be seen, in the Tiberian tradition most of the inconsistencies are a matter of shewa placement and vowel length. Contrary to this, in the Babylonian one the fluctuations occur mostly in the vowel quality.

  • Some Grammatical Features of the Samaritan Pentateuch Hebrew
    DOI: https://doi.org/10.28977/jbtr.2010.10.27.206 206 성경원문연구 제 27 호 Some Grammatical Features of the Samaritan Pentateuch Hebrew: Comparative Study with the Tiberian Hebrew1) Hyun-Joon Choi* 1. Preliminary It was customary to believe that the Samaritans originated from inter-racial marriages of (a mixture of) people who were living in Samaria and other peoples at the time of the Assyrian conquest of Samaria. However, there are a number of theories about the origins of the Samaritans, all of which have in common a tradition which asserts that the cult of Yahweh was originally widespread throughout the land of Israel. Even if this is true, the origin and early history of the Samaritans are quite problematic because their sources are far removed from the events, and because the non-Samaritan sources are told (tell) to be hostile. The biblical account in 2Ki 17 had long been the decisive source for the formulation of historical accounts of Samaritan origins. Reconsideration of this passage, however, has led to more attention being paid to the Chronicles of the Samaritans themselves. The fullest Samaritan version of its own history became .was published (ספר הימים) available since the Chronicle Samaritans are related to Judaism in that they accept the Torah as its holy book. They consider themselves to be true followers of the ancient Israelite religious line.
