The original publication of A Treatise on the Use of the Tenses in Hebrew and Some Other Syntactical Questions (1894) launched S. R. Driver's career and placed him at the forefront of Hebrew grammar and biblical studies. The reason is simple: this work was the first attempt in English to expound the principles of Hebrew syntax on lines at once philosophical and scientific. All modern study of Hebrew has been founded on the Tenses, and it remains perhaps the most interesting and original book that Drive wrote. Its final edition was hailed as the best single study of the Hebrew verbal system. Even critics conceded it to be an exciting and brilliant work that shaped future discussion of the Hebrew and Semitic verb.

This Biblical Resources Series edition of Driver's classic work, which adopts the third and final edition of the Tenses (1892), includes Driver's expanded and improved version of the text as well as a lengthy new introductory essay by W. Randall Garr on the history of the Tenses and its enduring importance as a manual for today's students of the Hebrew language.

Re-issue of a Classic
Reviewed in the United States on April 2, 2003
Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

A Treatise on the Use of the Tenses in Hebrew is a classic of Biblical Hebrew scholarship. S.R. Driver synthesized the available 19th century scholarship on Biblical Hebrew, most of it in German, and produced a clear, well organized exposition on the way tenses are expressed in Biblical Hebrew.
The primary focus is on the perfect, imperfect, and waw-consecutives, but also other issues of syntax are covered. W. Randall Garr's lengthy introduction is an excellent tribute to S.R. Driver and updates the Treatise for more recent developments in the study of Biblical Hebrew grammar.
Disclaimer: Randall Garr was my professor of Hebrew and Aramaic in college.
