Northwest Semitic Collection (7 vols.)
Digital Logos Edition
Overview
The Northwest Semitic Collection sheds light on the northwestern branch of the Semitic family of languages, of which Biblical Hebrew is a member. Because of the relatively small size of the corpus of Biblical Hebrew, scholars turn to other languages in the Northwest Semitic family to understand the Hebrew Bible. These languages include Ugaritic, Aramaic, and Phoenician-Punic. This collection contains four volumes which comment directly on Biblical Hebrew – three of which focus entirely on the book of Job, making this an especially useful collection for the study of that book. Other titles in the collection include a detailed study of the Aramaic Sefire Inscriptions, the Genesis Apocryphon from the Dead Sea Scrolls, and a catalog of Punic-Phoenician personal names. All in all, the Northwest Semitic Collection is a terrific set of resources for the Hebrew scholar.
