This is very interesting George. What brought you to these conclusions?
Can you translate a passage like Rolf did and show us how your method
can help us translate these ideas in order to recreate the theatrical
stage for the readers?

Dear Rolf,

You know what it looks like? It looks as though you're saying, "It
creates a lot of theoretical difficulties trying to unravel how these
various verb forms function in their contexts, so let's just throw
them all out and make up the meanings that seem logical to us."

Harold (and others),

While it might appear so, I think there is more in Rolf's theory than merely
this. I have been working (among other things) at a theory of Hebrew verbal
aspect over the last few years, and hope to have a grammar ready in the next
couple of years.

Rolf's point that Biblical Hebrew has no tense is one with which I strongly
agree. The evidence strongly points in this direction. But this statement
needs to be nuanced. Perhaps another way to put it is that the verbal
conjugations do not speak so much about tense, but rather the reader's
distance from the action. In other words, the verbs do not work on a temporal
plain, but rather a spatial plain. Tense must be inferred secondarily from
the spatial sphere. The way I describe it to my students is a bit like
watching a play in a theatre. English verbs, which have tense, are like
watching the play from your seat in the audience: you don't move, the action
moves before you. Biblical Hebrew verbs, though, invite you to come onto the
stage and watch the play from various vantage points.

Thus, WAYYIQTOL verbs present an action which is viewed as being initially
'far' from the viewer/reader, but which invites the viewer/reader to come and
look at it. In this way, narrative momentum is produced, and the
viewer/reader moves with the action. A QATAL verb, though, halts such
narrative momentum and presents an action up close. This is not because the
action of the QATAL is close in time, but because the author wants the
viewer/reader to see the action as critically important. A YIQTOL verb
presents an action which is quite distant from the viewer/reader, such that
the action is almost seen as filling out the background or the 'set'. A
WEQATAL verb is merely an 'add on' verb form and sustains the focus wherever
the viewer/reader is. Thus, the verb forms are like stage directions, telling
the viewer/reader 'where' the actions are occuring on the literary 'stage',
rather than 'when' the actions are occuring in time.

The choice of verb forms has primarily to do with dramatic effect. After all,
let's face it, Biblical Hebrew is great at telling a story or a poem. Timing
is of secondary importance. For example, many times a YIQTOL is translated as
a future tense, not because the future tense is intrinsic to it, but because
the author wants the viewer/reader to see the future as 'far' from the
current standpoint. On other occasions, a YIQTOL is translated as a
continuous past tense because, again, the action is seen to be distant from
the current standpoint. In any case, the author is trying to convey that the
action conveyed by the YIQTOL, whether it be past, present, future, or a
combination of these, should be seen as filling in the background or the
'set'. Thus, it's not that Hebrew verbs have no temporal connotations, but
they are not intrinsic to the verb form.

Having said that, some work needs to be done on the various stages of the
development of Biblical Hebrew. At some stage, tense came into the Hebrew
language. A diachronic analysis needs to be done to see how and when the
language developed and gained a tense system.

Yehoshua is a person who lived contemporary with Moses and is credited
in the Talmud with perhaps authoring the last verses of the Torah. Please
refrain from using this name to refer to Jesus. Jesus' Hebrew name was
most likely "y:$u(" spelled y$w(, and represents pronounciation before the
development of a furtive patah under the (ayin in such cases.

More than that, while I have no problem with any personal belief you hold,
please don't make it a requirement for argument with you to assume that
Jesus was the Messiah. This list is not the place to argue to and fro that
point. It is, however, offensive that you invoke Jewish tradition over and
over again in light of such an assumption.

end quote

Yehoshua who took over Moshe' had the same name as the Yehoshua who
fulfilled Moshe's prophecies. The name was in common usage and it is
not inignificant that they shared the same name.
While I appreciate that you do not believe that Yehoshua was the messiah
there are equally members of this mailing list who may be offended by
your view that he was a fraud. But I don't see anyone telling you and
talking down to you as you have done to me and this is a sign of maturity
that those who may have felt offended have kept it to themselves.
While you are correct that arguments about Yehoshua's messiahship are
inapproriate for this mailing list the evidence was appropriate for
the question at hand and unfortunately for you it is the greatest proof
that there is and so has a rightful place in this discussion.

As for your comment about the Anchor bible dictionary:

NO COMMENT!!! (trying my best not to laugh)

Was the best you could do after giving me a lecture on primary sources???

I don't know what to tell you. But you assume that the "Hebrews" diligently
copied and were all literate and familiar with the Torah for much of the
ancient
times. In fact, the two major holidays of the Jewish calendar - the Feast of
Tabernacles and the Feast of Unleavened Bread, were not observed for a great
many years. See 2 Kings 23:21 and Nehemiah 8:13 - 18. Both instances
also follow events where the Torah is made known to the people in some way,
apparently because they were not aware of it beforehand. So now you ask
why they wouldn't object? How would they object if they were not aware of
the contents of the Torah throughout most of the First Temple period and
when the Bible illustrates a situation where the Torah was forgotten again and
again? However, I ask you to refrain from calling Ezra or Josiah or any other
Biblical personality an imposter. That I may think they elaborated or
interpreted
the Torah text, part of it, or joined various earlier documents
together, does not
mean that they weren't divinely inspired to do so. Your assumption that
history
must have happened the way you think it was or else we are talking about
"imposters" and "fabrication" is unwarranted and even offensive.
end quote.

Ezra was certainly not an imposter and I would never dare to incur Yah's
wrath
by suggesting such a thing. Without men like Ezra I wouldn't be able to read
the
torah and I am thankful that he was such a faithful copyist. He is a link in
a
chain which relates all readers and copiers of Yah's words directly back to
Moshe'
himself. He faithfully carried out the work which was patterned for him by
Yehoshua
and commanded by Moshe. But let us not forget exactly what he was, a copyist.
Not a prophet or
a copyist given more than the usual authority but a normal copyist who loved
Yah
and would not have dared to overstep the mark of his duties. In fact, were he
here
today he would set you straight on a fair few matters and teach you the ways
of the
true scholar 'Trust in Yahowah with all your heart and do not lean on your
own
understanding' Proverbs3:5.

Regarding Yosiah. Another interesting case that cuts your reasoning down
mercilessly.
He was born Mannaseh's rule. The whole nation was filled with every kind of
pagan
ritual and divination and practices of magic. Yahowah's temple was desecrated
and
being used as a place of worship for foreign gods and the priests were all a
part
of it. Who do you think carried out the ritual sacrifices???
When Yosiah was king we read that Hilkiah accidently stumbled across Moshe's
scroll
when taking some dosh up to the temple. It was likely the only copy around
and had only
survived because of Yah's intervention so that Yosiah could restore pure
worship to
the land after Mannaseh's death.

I would be interested in hearing your distorted theories for how the 'oral
traditions'
managed to survive through this period in a pure enough state for Ezra to be
able
to complete the torah for us.

Love and Shalom! Yitzhak
Pray and ponder on these things before making another off the cuff attack.

Dear Bryan,

There are several attractive sides with your model, but I will concentrate
on two problems, 1) the lack of control mechanisms, and 2) the possibility
of circularity.

I will concentrate on Psalm 107: 17-20.

NIV has the following translation:

17. Some became fools (nominal cl. ) through their rebellious ways
and suffered affliction (YIQTOL) because of their iniquities.
18. They loathed (YIQTOL) all food and drew near (WAYYIQTOL) the
gates of death.
19. Then they cried (WAYYIQTOL) to the LORD on their trouble,
and he saved (YIQTOL) them from their distress.
20. He sent forth (YIQTOL) his word and healed them (WEYIQTOL), he
rescued (WEYIQTOL) them from the grave (YIQTOL)

It seems that the NIV translators viewed these verses as historical
narrative. They are expressed by 5 YIQTOLs, 2 WEYIQTOLs, and 2 WAYYIQTOLs.
You classify the first part of v 17 as historical narrative, and vv. 18, 19,
as PD (repeated actions in the past), and v 20 has no classification. Only
the YIQTOL of v. 20 is sentence initial.

Q 1: Do the WAYYIQTOLs, the WEYIQTOLs, and the YIQTOLs have the same
semantic meaning (the imperfective aspect), or do they havve different
meanings?

Q 2: The WAYYIQTOLs and the WEYIQTOLs evidently have the same temporal
reference, so what is the difference?

How can we pinpoint repeated action in the past when both the
perefective and the imperfective aspect can portray repeated action? This is
a rhetorical question.
Look at 1a and 1b below, where both have perfective verbs. Example 1a may
very well
indicate repeated action, but whether Ann knocked once or several times is
not made visible. In 1b
the repeated action is made visible, not by the verb, but by the verb +
adverbial. In the account of the death of Enkidu, the friend of Gilgamesh,
in the Akkadian Gilgamesh epic, Gilgamesh says: uri u mu$i eli$u abki "Day
and night I cried over him" (the verb BAKÛ (to weep) is perfective (the
iprus form)) but the adverbial shows that the actions are repeated.

1a. Ann has knocked at the door.
1b. Ann has knocked at the door for one minute.

Also in classical Hebrew repeated actions in the past can be expressed both
by imperfective and perfective verbs. Please compare the three clauses 2a,
2b, and 2c below. In 2a the interpretation of repeated actions is caused by
a knowledge of the world: The paper is regularly published. In 2b and 2c the
adverbials are the cause for our interpretation of repeated actions, one
with a perfective and the other with an imperfective verb.

2a. Last year I have read (perfective) the New Tork Times.
2b. As they have done (QATAL) from the day I brought them out of Egypt until
this day. 1 Samuel 8:8 NIV
2c. That is why to this day neither the priests of Dagon nor any others who
enter Dagon`s temple in Asdod step (YIQTOL) on the threshold. 1 Samuel 5:5
NIV

My point is that if we have a clause in classical Hebrew where we see
repeated actions in the past, this interpretation is caused by other factors
than the conjugation. The only exceptions are verbs whith punctiliar
Aktionsart where the imperfective aspect is used. But the requirements to be
certain are that we can be sure that the verb really is punctiliar and that
we know which conjugation is imperfective. So, when you classify verbs as
signifying repeated action in the past on the basis of discourse analysis,
it seems to me that this may be circular, because there are no control
mechanisms. It seems to me that v. 17 is of the same nature as vv. 18-20,
and if the actions of these verses are interpreted as repeated, that should
be the case with the actions in v. 17. Why should they not?


Best regards

Rolf Furuli
University of Oslo



v. 17 (or the first part?) you classify as historical narrative - one
nominal clause and one YIQTOL.
