dear b-haverim,

wanted to throw the general results out for some comment, though i can't
give out the details till i get something in press.

been assembling every sort of formal feature i can think off, as a sort of
biblical dialect geography. there are four major, distinct bundles:

Torah Prophets Sources
1. leviticus isaiah/amos P
2. deuteronomy jeremiah/ezekiel D
3. gen/exodus zechariah J/E
4. ezra-neh/chronicles/Writings (and with own internal continuum)

interesting that most psalms are #4. also for eg., 2sam9-20 (!)

i'm thinking that this will come out as individual studies, but maybe
brought together as a monograph in a couple of years <sigh>.

thoughts? ;-)

cheers
