Excerpt from Studies in Hebrew Proper Names
In discussions where so much often turns on the form of the name, it has seemed desirable to give the Hebrew characters rather than a transliteration. On the other hand where the form is of less importance, and especially in summarising sections, I have frequently preferred to give the recognised English equivalent rather than a more exact transliteration.

Excerpt from Studies in Hebrew Proper Names
The present volume has grown out of an essay written for the Senior Kennicott Scholarship in 1893. During the past three years I have been able to make the collection of data for my arguments more complete and more exact - more especially by a closer examination of the textual tradition of the names. Comparatively little has been done in the way of a systematic treatment of the text of the Old Testament proper names, although in the recent dictionary by Siegfried and State good service has been rendered by giving under the various names the Greek equivalents, which frequently indicate the degree of uncertainty attaching to particular instances. The notes to Kittel's edition of Chronicles (in Haupt's Bible) also afford valuable help; but my own notes were practically complete before this appeared.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book analyzes Hebrew proper names in the Old Testament to reveal the ideas and culture of the ancient Israelites. The author argues that these names were not merely symbols but expressed the parents' hopes and fears and reflected the religious and social conditions of their time. Through a detailed examination of the various classes of names, including those compounded with terms of kinship, animal names, and divine names, the book provides insights into the development of Israelite religion and thought. It highlights the prevalence of certain names in particular periods, indicating the changing ideas and influences that shaped Israelite society. The book concludes that the study of Hebrew proper names offers a unique window into the world of ancient Israel and the evolution of its religious and cultural beliefs.
