>I have a few comments to your post. But before I give those comments,
I would ask you one question: You speak of WEQATAL as a particular
Mishnaic Hebrew form. What is the meaning/use of Mishnaic WEQATAL?

Mishnaic Hebrew veqatal is 'qatal'.
It does not have a 'we-qatal' that functions complementary with yiqtol,
that is, it does not have what might be seen in Exodus 25-31. Or like
with gen 29:2-3

>I have not read the dissertation of Ohad Cohen. Can you give me the
particulars?>
