Summary: | J. M. Allegro has convincingly shown that the archaic Hebrew relative pronoun הֶז can function as a genitive marker in a common Semitic pattern Noun Pronoun Noun (cf. Aramaic baytā dī-malkā). So far, it has been assumed that once הֶז was replaced by ֲאֶֹשר this pattern was no longer possible in Hebrew. The current paper offers data which indicate that at least in Biblical Hebrew ֲאֶֹשר can still function as a genitive marker. |
