Papers

  1. The intersection of syntax and poetry in the first Hebrew acrostic poem of Lamentations 1 (2023)
    The authors ask whether the alphabetic acrostic of Lamentations 1 (each strophe opening with the next letter) and its parallelism forced the poet into unnatural syntax.
  2. Differentiating dislocations, topicalisation, and extraposition in Biblical Hebrew: Evidence from negation (2019)
    The paper sorts the constituents that stand at the edges of a Biblical Hebrew sentence into six constructions, by three features: inside or outside the matrix sentence, moved or base-generated, and resumed or not.
  3. The Evolution of Biblical Hebrew Linguistics in South Africa: The Last 60 Years (2018)
    A history of Biblical Hebrew study in South Africa in three eras: a philological one (teaching grammars, the writing system, word formation, vocabulary), one shaped by European and American linguistics (generative syntax, functional grammar, discourse analysis, the Biblical Hebrew Reference Grammar of 1999 and its…
  4. At the interface of syntax and prosody: Differentiating left dislocated and tripartite verbless clauses in Biblical Hebrew (2017)
    The "tripartite" verbless clause has two noun phrases and a third-person pronoun (PRON), as in "the LORD, he (is) God" (Deut 4:35).
  5. The contribution of Qumran to historical Hebrew linguistics: Evidence from the syntax of participial negation (2016)
    Qumran Hebrew sits between Biblical and Mishnaic Hebrew; the authors use the negation of the participle to show it is a distinct stage.
  6. Is the adjective distinct from the noun as a grammatical category in biblical Hebrew? (2016)
    Many grammars (Joüon–Muraoka, Waltke–O'Connor, GKC §79a) fold the adjective into the noun because their endings look alike.
  7. The Translation of Quotative Frames in the Hebrew Bible (2015)
    The paper studies how Biblical Hebrew narrative introduces speech. It sorts the quotative frames (the words that wrap a quotation, such as "X said to Y, ...") into three syntactic shapes: a single neutral verb of saying, several finite speech verbs in a row, and a frame built on the grammaticalised infinitive…
