### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Excellent approach to reading and understanding Hebrew text
  

*by J***R on Reviewed in the United States on February 21, 2013*

This nice concise volume by Dennis Tucker is a very good tool for students of Biblical Hebrew (BH).  As indicated by the title, this book utilized the text of the book of Jonah.  It contains the usual pattern most BH readers use.  That is a verse of biblical text in Hebrew is followed by word/phrase analysis to aid the student in translation.  Like other BH reading guide it assumes the reader has at least a working knowledge of BH.What is different and the reason for my buying of this book is the fact that Mr. Tucker focuses heavily on syntax.  Specifically, the book focuses on macro-syntax as Tucker calls it.  I like to think of macro-syntax as the big picture or structure of the text on a greater level beyond a single verse or sentence.  This is in contrast to what most BH readers focus on, which is micro-syntax, i.e. analyzing word and a sentence without looking at how it fits into the bigger picture.  The beauty of reading Hebrew isn't so much the thrill of being able to translate Hebrew text word by word, but understanding what syntax can reveal about the structure of the text and thus the larger picture of what the text is intended to communicate.  Wolfgang Schneider's Grammatik des Biblischen Hebräisch. approaches the study of BH from this very point of view.With focus on macro-syntax the reader can more easily identify units such as discourses, admonitions, and many other literary and poetic forms and structures.  In this light, it is important to remember that Hebrew texts were composed and structured to be HEARD and not read, at least in their original setting.  Thus these texts are structured accordingly with syntactical and other markers to denominate units and give oral signals to help the hearer better understand the message.  This notion is consistent with Watson's seminal work on Hebrew poetry, Classical Hebrew Poetry: A Guide to its Techniques (Library Hebrew Bible/Old Testament Studies).  Likewise, Dorsey's work on Literary Structure of the Old Testament, The: A Commentary on Genesis-Malachi focuses at length on oral typesetting and denomination of larger units.It is this understanding that drew me to this book and the approach taken by Tucker.  And in that respect my expectations were met and the book is a welcome addition to my library.  I highly recommend this book.

    An excellent resource for Hebrew exegesis
  

*by B***R on Reviewed in the United States on January 7, 2009*

Tucker's handbook on the Hebrew text of Jonah is an excellent addition to the library of any intermediate student of Ancient Hebrew.  For those familiar with the basics of Hebrew syntax, Tucker's volume is especially useful.  Thankfully, Tucker incorporates numerous recent developments in discourse analysis and linguistic approaches to Hebrew literature into the volume, which further helps those seeking to understand the meaning of the Hebrew text.  I highly recommend this volume to anyone interested in understanding the message of Jonah.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
