   Hi Karl,

  Do you think the use of the English word "uncontaminated" in this context
is a fortunate one?

  In fact an argument can be made of the very opposite of your position,
namely that at least some knowledge of cognate languages is essential for BH
study. On modern Heb. the argument is different.

my understanding of Biblical Hebrew is uncontaminated from such sources.
