Product Description
by Donald R. Vance (Author), George Athas (Author), Yael Avrahami (Author)
Biblical Aramaic: A Reader & Handbook offers an essential resource that enables students, pastors, and scholars to not only read the Aramaic portions of the Bible with understanding and confidence, but also to maintain this ability over the long term.
Compiled by accomplished scholars, this helpful handbook features updates to the biblical text to conform to the BHL version; includes new material and clearer abbreviations in the grammatical and lexical apparatus; and provides nearly a dozen vocabulary and word lists not found in the BHS reader.
