Macro-Level Repetition in Biblical Poetry (1x17)

Yayınlanma tarihi: Oca 06, 2020

In biblical poetry, the authors invite us to compare parallel words/images in lines that are not next to each other through the use of symmetry (e.g., a symmetrical design such as ABBA). The biblical authors often employ wordplay using graphically similar words in Hebrew to convey relationships and meaning.
