Operation Esther: Opening the Door for the Last Jews of Yemen

 

Book Description
Publication Date: November 15, 1998

Can ordinary people play a role on the stage of international diplomacy? Can just a few individuals deeply concerned about their brethren in a foreign land, persuade the government of a superpower to share their concern and persuade the government of another country to acknowledge and remedy a long-standing injustice?
Contrary to what cynics might assume, the tale of human rights activism told in Operation Esther proves that the answer to these questions, at least sometimes, is an unequivocal yes.

Akkadian Lexicon Companion for Biblical Hebrew Etymological, Semantic and Idiomatic Equivalence

 

Book Description
Publication Date: November 30, 2009

The Companion does not confine its interest solely to etymological equivalents with Akkadian but also embraces semantic and idiomatic relationships. It helps uncover meanings for Hebrew words that have eluded clear definition in particular contexts, but which have either Akkadian cognates or vocable euivalents employed in a similar context. It proposes nuances for Hebrew words suggested by similar Akkadian usages. It illuminates idioms from related expressions in Akkadian. It corrects certain understandings of Hebrew words and expressions in light of their Akkadian equivalents. It shows that the large resource of Akkadian literature, though geographically and temporally somewhat remote and linguistically somewhat different from Hebrew, can, offer a large number of insights for the task of understanding and interpreting Biblical Hebrew.
