Rhetorical Analysis of the Hebrew Scriptures

General Introduction

This section, contributed by Pieter van der Lugt, is devoted to rhetorical analysis of the Hebrew scriptures, and especially, at present, to the analysis of the psalms and other pieces of Biblical poetry.

Dr. Van der Lugt examines the semantic and formal structures of the psalms of the Hebrew Bible and determines that the poems are composed of balanced cantos and strophes.

Furthermore, he makes use of Professor Labuschagne's discoveries regarding quantitative structural or logotechnical structures in biblical texts.
