David H. Aaron

Biblical Ambiguities: Metaphor, Semantics, and Divine Imagery

Buch

This study argues that our assumptions as to how language works influences the way we interpret biblical texts. Drawing upon contemporary linguistic theory, Aaron seeks to place before the reader a strategy for deciphering biblical idioms within a theory of semantics, using divine imagery in the Hebrew Bible as the primary focal point.
