Abstract

The goal of this study is to argue that the — yiqtol construction has an evidential meaning when employed with reference to the past. The yiqtol functions in these situations as an evidential strategy and is used to express the source of information. For instance, Exod. 15:1, which famously begins with , should be understood as ‘then (as reported / as they say) Moses sang’. The words added between brackets refer to the source of information. In most biblical passages where this rare and puzzling construction is attested the evidential yiqtol appears with deictic markers that tie the world of the narrative to that of the authors and of the audience. Interestingly, paratextual elements and redactional observations support the idea that we are dealing with evidential strategies. Finally, the Hebrew Bible seems to contain additional instances of the evidential yiqtol in a similar construction ( — yiqtol).
《圣经》中希伯来语的证据策略
本研究的目的是要证明- yiqtol结构在与过去相关时具有证据意义。在这些情况下,yiqtol作为一种证据策略发挥作用,并用于表示信息的来源。例如,出埃及记15:1,著名的开头是这样的,应该理解为“然后(据报道/他们说)摩西唱歌”。括号内加的字是指资料来源。在大多数圣经段落中,这种罕见而令人费解的结构得到了证实,证据性的符号出现了指示性的标记,将叙事的世界与作者和观众的世界联系起来。有趣的是,副文本元素和注释性观察支持我们正在处理证据策略的观点。最后,希伯来圣经似乎在一个类似的结构(- yiqtol)中包含了额外的证据yiqtol的实例。

期刊介绍: The Journal of Semitic Studies was established in 1955 and since then has built up a reputation as one of the leading international academic journals in its field. Semitic Studies has always been understood by the editors to include the modern as well as the ancient Near (Middle) East, with special emphasis on research into the languages and literatures of the area.
