Traditional Biblical Hebrew (BH) grammars have often defined the temporal information of BH verbs only in terms of tense or grammatical aspect, which can be identified by the finite verbal forms. This paper argues that lexical aspect, which is also known as situation aspect or Aktionsart, is an essential semantic factor for determining the internal temporal structure of BH predicates. As a trial cut, this paper analyses lexical aspect in the verb yd' in the qatal, qotel, and wayyiqtol forms.
传统的圣经希伯来语语法通常只根据时态或语法方面来定义BH动词的时间信息,这些信息可以通过有限的动词形式来识别。本文认为,词汇方面,也被称为情境方面或Aktionsart,是决定BH谓词内部时间结构的一个重要语义因素。作为试切,本文分析了qatal、qotel和wayyiqtol形式的动词yd’的词汇方面。

Expressing the Day of the Month in Biblical Hebrew: A Diachronic Perspective 用圣经希伯来语表达月中的一天:历时的观点
Pub Date : 2022-01-28 DOI: 10.25159/2663-6573/9375
Adina Moshavi
Biblical Hebrew (henceforth BH), like most languages, possesses two different kinds of numerals, cardinals, e.g., sheloshah (three) and ordinals, e.g., shelishi (third). While BH can generate a cardinal of any size, the ordinal paradigm in BH only goes up to ten, and there is no morphological or syntactic mechanism for combining ordinals to express higher numbers. BH compensates for its lack of higher ordinals by employing ordinal numerals in dedicated syntactic constructions. The present study is a diachronic corpus-based analysis of the syntax of one kind of cardinal phrase with ordinal meaning, the day-of-the-month expression. This study takes the syntactic and semantic accounts in Rothstein and Moshavi (2021) as its points of departure, and includes a construction not discussed in that publication. The study examines the synchronic and diachronic distributions of four constructions that account for nearly all occurrences of cardinal constructions with ordinal meaning: the appositional phrase (AP), the reduplicative construct phrase (RCP), the construct phrase (CP), and the bare numeral phrase (BN). The data presented reveals noteworthy developments in day-of-the-month expressions in Late Biblical Hebrew (LBH) that are also reflected in the extra-biblical Hebrew corpora of the Second Temple period. These results establish the syntactic expression of ordinality as a topic of significance for the broader endeavour of characterising the linguistic features of exilic and Second Temple Hebrew.
与大多数语言一样,圣经希伯来语(以下简称BH)拥有两种不同的数字,基数,例如sheloshah(三)和序数,例如shelishi(第三)。虽然BH可以生成任何大小的基数,但BH中的序数范式最多只能达到10,并且没有将序数组合起来表示更高数字的形态学或句法机制。BH通过在专门的句法结构中使用序数来弥补其缺乏高级序数的不足。本研究以历时语料库为基础,对一种具有序数意义的基本短语“月日”的句法进行分析。本研究以Rothstein和Moshavi(2021)中的句法和语义描述为出发点,并包括该出版物中未讨论的结构。本研究考察了四种结构的共时和历时分布,这四种结构几乎解释了序数基本结构的所有出现:同位短语(AP)、重叠结构短语(RCP)、结构短语(CP)和裸数词短语(BN)。所提供的数据揭示了《圣经》晚期希伯来语(LBH)中月日表达的显著发展,这也反映在第二圣殿时期的圣经外希伯来语语料库中。这些结果确立了普通性的句法表达,这对于更广泛地描述流亡语和第二圣殿希伯来语的语言特征具有重要意义。

Niphalisation in Ancient Hebrew: A Perspective from the Samaritan Tradition 古希伯来文的尼法化:撒玛利亚传统的视角
Pub Date : 2022-01-28 DOI: 10.25159/2663-6573/9207

A development in verbal morphology common to multiple forms of ancient Hebrew involves the shift of stative, intransitive, and weakly transitive verbs from G-stem (qal) to N-stem (niphal). Like other Hebrew traditions that crystallised in the Second Temple period, the reading tradition of the Samaritan Pentateuch (consisting of the oral realisation of the constituent consonantal, vocalic, and prosodic components) presents a relatively advanced stage of the shift. Against this tendency, however, Samaritan Hebrew also at times appears to preserve archaic qal morphology. This study surveys salient manifestations of “niphalisation” in Samaritan Hebrew, contrasting them with parallel features in Tiberian Hebrew and other forms of ancient Hebrew and Aramaic, especially Second Temple varieties, and seeks to reveal salient commonalities. While highlighting pertinent secondary features common to Second Temple period sources, the paper also emphasises the historical depth of the shift from qal to niphal.
古希伯来语多种形式常见的动词形态的发展涉及静态、不及物和弱及物动词从G-词干(qal)到N-词干(niphal)的转变。与第二圣殿时期具体化的其他希伯来语传统一样,撒马利亚人五经的阅读传统(包括对辅音、声乐和韵律成分的口头实现)呈现出相对高级的转变阶段。然而,与这种趋势相反,撒马利亚希伯来语有时似乎也保留了古老的qal形态。本研究调查了撒马利亚希伯来语中“niphalisation”的显著表现,将其与台伯希伯来语以及其他形式的古希伯来语和阿拉姆语(尤其是第二圣殿变体)中的平行特征进行了对比,并试图揭示显著的共性。在强调第二圣殿时期来源共有的相关次要特征的同时,本文还强调了从qal到niphal转变的历史深度。

Morphology and Markedness: On Verb Switching in Hebrew Poetry 形态学与标记性:论希伯来语诗歌中的动词转换
Pub Date : 2022-01-28 DOI: 10.25159/2663-6573/9322

Historically, grammarians have viewed tenses as simple, unanalysable pieces of grammatical information. Portmanteau tenses may combine tense, aspect, and modality, but these are the main categories. Suzanne Fleischman has proposed a radically new paradigm in which not only verbal forms but entire discourse contexts are analysed as clusters of oppositional properties to which markedness values apply. It is in the interaction of the cluster of properties associated with a verbal form and those associated with its discourse context that we find the locus of verbal meaning. This interactive meaning is illustrated by examples from Psalm 18, demonstrating that morphological forms have the effect of either drawing non-prototypical situations closer to the prototype or drawing situations farther away from the prototype.
历史上,语法学家认为时态是简单的、不可分析的语法信息片段。混合时态可以结合时态、时态和情态,但这些是主要的类别。苏珊娜·弗莱希曼提出了一个全新的范式,在这个范式中,不仅口头形式,而且整个话语语境都被分析为适用于标记值的对立属性集群。在与言语形式相关的一组属性与其话语语境相关的属性的相互作用中,我们找到了言语意义的轨迹。《诗篇》第18篇的例子说明了这种相互作用的意义,表明形态形式要么使非原型的情况更接近原型,要么使情况远离原型。

The Significance of Three Methods of Grouping Biblical Hebrew Text Portions 《圣经》希伯来文文本部分分组的三种方法的意义
Pub Date : 2022-01-28 DOI: 10.25159/2663-6573/9320
A. Forbes
The paper first indicates the implications of the mixed results obtained by using three disparate analytical methods to infer relationships among biblical text portions based upon their spelling practices. Next, a sketch is provided of matres lectionis (“mothers of reading”) in Biblical Hebrew and of the Andersen-Forbes classification system. Vowel features are specified, and examples presented. The notion of transmissional textual change is introduced. The criticality of comparing the results provided by different analytical methods is emphasised. Next, three complementary analytical methods are introduced in turn, and their results are appraised. Clustering is a heuristic data exploration method, its prime result being that the spelling of the Torah sets it well apart from the other portions of the Hebrew Bible. Clustering, however, produces many other provocative portion groupings inviting investigation. While multidimensional scaling also gathers the Torah portions, it also yields its own tantalising juxtapositions. Seriation orders the portions along a timeline. It results in an expected horseshoe-shaped band of portions, albeit rather “puffy.” Also, some of its text-portion orders are suspicious. While many results produced by the three methods are encouraging, many are perplexing. Envisioned future application of evolving methods to our BH text-portion data may well enhance the trustworthiness of our inferences.
本文首先指出了通过使用三种不同的分析方法来推断圣经文本部分之间基于拼写实践的关系所获得的混合结果的含义。接下来,简要介绍了圣经希伯来语中的“阅读之母”(matres lectionis)和安徒生-福布斯分类系统。指出了元音特征,并给出了例子。引入了传递性文本变化的概念。强调了比较不同分析方法提供的结果的重要性。其次,依次介绍了三种互补分析方法,并对其结果进行了评价。聚类是一种启发式数据探索方法,其主要结果是Torah的拼写将其与希伯来圣经的其他部分区分开来。然而,聚类产生了许多其他令人兴奋的部分分组邀请调查。虽然多维尺度也收集了Torah部分,但它也产生了自己诱人的并置。序列化沿着时间轴对部分进行排序。这导致了马蹄形的部分,尽管相当“肿胀”。此外,它的一些文本部分的顺序是可疑的。虽然这三种方法产生的许多结果令人鼓舞,但也有许多令人困惑。设想未来将不断发展的方法应用于我们的BH文本部分数据,可能会很好地提高我们推断的可信度。

This article surveys the three sources at our disposal for the recovery of ancient northern Hebrew: a) Israelian Hebrew, that is, the dialect present in those portions of the Bible with a northern provenance; b) inscriptions from the northern kingdom of Israel, including Kuntillet ‘Ajrud; and c) Samaritan Hebrew. The overall goal is to determine the common lexical and grammatical features of this complex of northern Hebrew dialects from the biblical period, many of which are shared with Phoenician and Aramaic, though not with Judahite Hebrew.
这篇文章调查了我们所掌握的恢复古代北方希伯来语的三个来源:a)以色列希伯来语,即圣经中那些有北方来源的部分中出现的方言;b)来自以色列北部王国的铭文,包括Kuntillet ' Ajrud;c)撒玛利亚希伯来语。总体目标是确定圣经时期北部希伯来方言的共同词汇和语法特征,其中许多与腓尼基语和阿拉姆语共享,尽管与犹太希伯来语不同。

The Varieties of DSS Hebrew as Reflected in Two Syntactic Traits, and the Sociolinguistic Situation Underlying the Qumran Hebrew Variety 从两个句法特征看DSS希伯来语的变体及库姆兰希伯来语变体的社会语言学状况
Pub Date : 2022-01-27 DOI: 10.25159/2663-6573/9325
M. Colasuonno
This paper offers a provisional evaluation of both the use of the particle ’et preceding a nominal functioning as a direct object and of the reversed word order, as these two groups of syntactic hallmarks are often regarded to be emphatic. The first part of this paper describes a selection of cases from Manuscript a of the Isaiah Scroll (1QIsaa) in which ’et is used differently compared with the Masoretic book of Isaiah (MT). Next, it provides selected examples within non-biblical Dead Sea Scrolls, in order to investigate the double direct object and the shift in verb complementation. The second part of this paper deals with four categories affected by the phenomenon of reversed word order in both the biblical and non-biblical DSS, i.e., subject preceding the verb, direct object preceding the infinitive, apposition, and binary expressions. The conclusion suggests two alternatives to emphasis as the main cause of the alleged idiosyncrasies in the use of ’et and in reversed word order, respectively. The results reveal some insights into the increased frequency of the particle ’et both in the biblical and non-biblical DSS, under certain syntactic circumstances, and into the shift from initial-focus to end-focus in a number of categories—albeit in a transitional stage—prevalent in non-biblical DSS.
本文对名词性功能前的助词“et”作为直接宾语的使用和颠倒的语序的使用进行了临时评估,因为这两组句法特征通常被认为是强调的。本文的第一部分描述了《以赛亚书卷》(1QIsaa)手稿a中的一些案例,其中“et”的使用与《以赛亚书》(MT)中的Masoretic书不同。接下来,它提供了非圣经死海古卷中的精选例子,以研究双重直接宾语和动词互补的转变。本文的第二部分讨论了圣经和非圣经DSS中受语序颠倒现象影响的四类,即动词前的主语、不定式前的直接宾语、同位语和二元表达。该结论提出了两种替代强调的方法,分别作为“et”和“颠倒语序”使用中所谓特质的主要原因。研究结果揭示了在某些句法环境下,在圣经和非圣经DSS中,助词“et”的频率增加的一些见解,以及在非圣经DSS流行的许多类别中从最初的焦点到最终焦点的转变——尽管处于过渡阶段。

Free Forms of Address and the Cases of Expressive Shift in Biblical Hebrew 《圣经》希伯来语中的自由称呼形式和表达转换案例
Pub Date : 2022-01-27 DOI: 10.25159/2663-6573/9297
Young Bok Kim
This paper provides a descriptive analysis of address rules governing two nominal types of free forms of address (i.e., personal names and titles), which are used between two human beings in biblical Hebrew prose. Using the bi-dimensional power/solidarity model as a theoretical framework (Brown and Gilman 1960; Brown and Ford 1961), I attempt to show whether the usage of personal names and titles in biblical Hebrew exhibits unique rules and patterns or accords with their claim of “linguistic universal”—the linguistic form referring to an inferior is used mutually by intimate equals, while the form referring to a superior is used mutually by distant equals. After describing the general rules of address, I attempt to identify possible examples of what Brown and Gilman call “expressive shift,” that is, strategic violation of address rules to communicate the speaker’s temporary feelings and attitudes.
本文对圣经希伯来文中两个人之间使用的两种名义类型的自由称呼(即人名和头衔)的称呼规则进行了描述性分析。以双向权力/团结模型为理论框架(Brown和Gilman 1960;Brown和Ford 1961),我试图证明圣经希伯来语中人名和头衔的使用是否表现出独特的规则和模式,或者是否符合他们的“语言普遍性”主张——指代劣势的语言形式由亲密的平等者相互使用,而表示上级的形式则由遥远的平等者相互使用。在描述了演讲的一般规则后,我试图找出布朗和吉尔曼所说的“表达转变”的可能例子,即战略性地违反演讲规则来传达演讲者的暂时感受和态度。

Reported Direct Speech in the Hebrew Bible and in the Andersen-Forbes Morphology and Syntax Database 《希伯来圣经》和安徒生-福布斯词法句法数据库中的间接引语
Pub Date : 2022-01-27 DOI: 10.25159/2663-6573/9319
Ulf Bergström
The article outlines the phenomenon of direct reported speech in the Hebrew Bible and presents some of the guiding principles for the recently undertaken revision of the speech level markup in the Andersen-Forbes Morphology and Syntax Database. For the revised version of the markup, a higher number of unusual forms of direct speech has been included, such as implied direct speech and direct speech introduced by quotative frames without verbs of speech. The article argues that a simplified markup strategy is often both methodologically and theoretically appropriate for texts that are vague, ambiguous, and/or generally underspecified with respect to direct speech. The simplified markup strategy means that when there is uncertainty as to whether a given point of transition in the text marks either the beginning or the end of a unit of reported speech, one should assume that the current state of affairs continues.
本文概述了希伯来圣经中直接间接引语的现象,并提出了一些指导原则,用于最近对安德森-福布斯形态学和语法数据库中的语音水平标记进行修订。在修订后的标记中,包含了更多不寻常的直接引语形式,例如隐含的直接引语和由引语框架引入的没有动词的直接引语。本文认为,简化的标记策略通常在方法上和理论上都适合于与直接引语相关的模糊、模棱两可和/或通常未明确的文本。简化标记策略意味着,当不确定文本中给定的过渡点是指代引语单元的开始还是结束时,应该假设当前的状态继续下去。

The Noun ’îš in Ancient Hebrew: A Marker of Essential Participation 古希伯来语中的名词“<e:1>”:本质参与的标志

Taking a functional, cognitive, and communication-oriented approach, this paper posits that in ancient Hebrew, the noun ’îš often played a distinctive role: to signal to an audience that its referent is essential for grasping the depicted situation. In such cases, this noun’s meaning resides mainly on the level of the discourse between the speaker and the audience, rather than on the semantic level. Three types of biblical evidence are presented in support of this idea: ’îš-headed appositions, relative clauses that either serve in lieu of a substantive or modify ’îš, and clauses that introduce an unquantified subset of a known group. The tests involve comparing cases where ’îš is present in a referring expression versus similar cases where it is absent. The study found that all of the studied cases with ’îš were sketching a new or modified situation, in which this noun’s referent was profiled as a key participant. In contrast, all cases without ’îš treated the referent of interest as a given element. The hypothesis accounts for 129 biblical instances of ’îš that scholars had deemed pointless or puzzling. Hence it yields a Hebrew Bible text that is more coherent and informative.
本文采用功能、认知和沟通为导向的方法,认为在古希伯来语中,名词“îš”通常发挥着独特的作用:向观众发出信号,表明其指称物对于理解所描述的情况至关重要。在这种情况下,这个名词的意义主要存在于说话人和听众之间的话语层面,而不是语义层面。有三种类型的圣经证据支持这一观点:“îš-head同位语”、代替实质性或修饰“îsh”的相对从句,以及引入已知群体的未量化子集的从句。测试包括比较“îš”出现在指称表达中的情况与不存在的类似情况。研究发现,所有被研究的‘îš’案例都描绘了一个新的或经过修改的情况,在这个情况下,这个名词的指称被描述为一个关键参与者。相反,所有没有“îš”的情况都将感兴趣的指称视为一个给定的元素。该假说解释了129个学者认为毫无意义或令人费解的圣经中的“îš”实例。因此,它产生了一个更加连贯和信息丰富的希伯来文圣经文本。
