Hi all:

First, if there are any Muslim members, may I offer my best wishes for 
Ramadan.

I have found in my Aramaic background studies relevant to the NEW Testament 
that idiom is very often overlooked in doing exegesis.  I would be very 
interested if some members would post examples of Hebrew idioms, euphemisms, 
metaphors and figures of speech from the Tanakh that often go unclarified 
but which may affect exegesis, particularly by Christians.  Perhaps there is 
a seminal work on this as well.

Thanks,

Jack
