4.0 out of 5 stars
Good Work on New Methodologies,
By Julie Siverd (St. Louis, MO) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Linguistic Analysis of Biblical Hebrew (Paperback)
Rev. Groom offers an intermediate Biblical Hebrew student a good view of modern linguistic insight into Biblical interpretation. Developments in lexical semantics and text-linguistics are presented in a readable fashion. She deals with important questions of data, method, and most importantly provides an integrated algorithm for the student who may be confused about how old and new methods fit together.

4.0 out of 5 stars
A smooth beginning... a dense ending,
By Eric Maroney (Trumansburg, NY) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Linguistic Analysis of Biblical Hebrew (Paperback)
Sue Groom tackles a difficult subject in Linguistic Analysis of Biblical Hebrew, and in a short space, the application of modern linguistic analysis on an ancient (and unspoken) language. Part one is highly readable and for beginners in the topic. In Part two, Groom gets denser but still remains in the realm of a layman's comprehension. It is only in Part three where the text gets nearly unreadable due to the overabundance of unexplained technical language. This makes Linguistic Analysis a work which is overwhelmingly for the semi-specialist in the field; the novice should be prepared to do some work here or stay away from this dense but smartly written book.
