Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book provides a deep dive into the grammar of the Chaldee language, a dialect of Aramaic closely related to Hebrew. Having developed as the spoken language of the Jews during the Babylonian exile, it was employed by them as the language of their books after their return to Palestine. Much of the Jewish sacred text, including significant portions of the Old Testament, were originally composed in Chaldee, making this book an indispensable resource for Biblical scholars. The author meticulously details the origins of the language, explores its etymology, and provides instruction on its orthography, punctuation, and complex vowel system. To aid in the study of ancient texts, this book also contains a comprehensive Chrestomathy, replete with Old Testament passages in Chaldee accompanied by extensive lexical and grammatical annotations.
