[QUOTE]Originally posted by ThePhysicist: [B]Shalom Lavi ================================================================= I wanted actual examples of vocabulary not a list of reference books. ================================================================= ................... My apologies...i was under the impression you were looking to learn something. ================================================================= I own a good set of Hebrew references, so please don't try to snow me by listing yours. ================================================================= .......................My listing was not to denigrate your library..but to point out other books to increase your awareness. Again "snowing" you is not the intent. Getting you to realize that the Masoretic text ,with its attendant grammar & syntax was hindering your understanding. ================================================================= Since the compilers of BDB had Rashi available to them, any deviation from Rashi represented a conscious choice on their part. ================================================================= .........................This is pure supposition on your part. Br-Dr-Br is heavily vested in the Masoretic Text. They never even acknowledge theres an Early version. ================================================================= Until I see a demonstration of the superiority of Rashi, I will stick with what I have. ================================================================= .........................Well intransigence is its own reward then isn't it ? May you do well and may your knowledge be increased. But spare me any more Masoretic lessons...it doesn't"feed the bulldog" in terms of classic hebrew & aramaic... anymore than knowing street-rap would help you translate Chaucer! ================================================================= To paraphrase an old bromide ! " You can lead em to data...but you can't make em think !" May Yahweh bless your studies. May he allow you knowledge & comfort. Shalom IP: Logged |
