Book excerpt: Providing a formal syntax of the use of Hebrew accents, this study defines the syntactic grammar of each accent as it functions within the domain of the verse. By means of computer analysis, each rule is exhaustively tested in the Pentateuch or poetic books. Part One of the study examines the accents in prose, while Part Two explores the accents in the poetic books of Job, Psalms, and Proverbs. Also examined are the classic work of William Wickes, and contemporary Israel Yeivin.
