Thank you Trevor and Ken,

As Trevor pointed out, the use of suffixes (also construct chains) makes the
constituent order in the LXX improbable as a representation of Hebrew
constituent order. I was trying to rule out the possibility that there was
something in the vorlage of Job 39:3a OG that was driving the constituent
order. I think we have succeded in rulling it out.

Ken's point is well taken. I looked at the first ten chapters of Job to see
how many times a suffix in the MT is represented by a "fronted" constituent.
The results of this search settled the issue. I have listed the citations
from E.Tov's MT/LXX after my signature. I realize I am using "fronted" in
an odd way but forgive me this once, ok? :-)


greetings,
Clay Bartholomew
