N2  - In recent old testament studies, increasing reliance has been placed upon the resources of languages other than Hebrew itself--Arabic, Aramaic, Accadian, and Ugaritic. Scholars have used these languages as a source from which the meaning of unusual Hebrew words might be deducted. Professor Barr discusses the principles involved in this process. He considers such questions as the degree of coincidence in the vocabularies of cognate languages, the extent of homonymy in Hebrew, and the value of the ancient translations. This is the first book to be fully devoted to the subject
