Dear Dave,

>Is Num 18:29 poetry? I notice that both halves of the verse begin with a
>prepositional phrase with *min*, and end with marked direct objects. The
>verb in the second half is omitted.

This text does not strike me as poetry simply because it uses grammatical
features that occur in poetry.  These features can also occur elsewhere.

				Yours,
