From: Harold Holmyard
Dear Karl,
I used to think that the -MW suffix always referred to the thirdJob 40:4 is a bit different because the -MW suffix has no pronominal
person indefinite number, but when I was recently analyzing Job 40:4,
I came to the realization that the subject of the -MW suffix was Job
himself, in the first person. Now I'll have to go back and see if this
is the only usage that is not third person, or if there are others as
well. This is a new assignment for me.
value. LMW is functioning as a poetic alternative for the preposition L.
It is a frequent usage, appearing 55 times according to BDB.
Yours,
Harold Holmyard
[Steve Miller] Harold, LMW is used 59 times in the Tanach. How could it be
used 55 times with no pronoun meaning? Job 40:4 looks like the only one
where most translators skip the pronoun meaning.
