New resource . . .
For those who are interested, I added a new resource to my list: Russell Fuller’s recently published intermediate grammar. This is the grammar most of my analysis is based on: grammatical categories, accents, etc. Also, I do plan to make more videos.
Ruth 1:6d
Genesis 3:15d – the Protoevangelicum
The Accusative of Specification
In the videos for Genesis 3:15c and 3:15d we ran across the ‘accusative of specification.’ In this post I will provide a description of this adverbial accusative.
Genesis 3:15c – the Protoevangelicum
Cases in Biblical Hebrew?
In my videos you will often here me use the terms ‘accusative,’ ‘genitive,’ and ‘nominative.’ You will also see these terms in your more traditional grammars, like Gesenius-Kautzsch and Joüon-Muraoka and even more linguistically informed grammars like Waltke-O’Connor. But are these acceptable terms to use in describing Hebrew grammar?
