Gam in the Prophetic Discourse
P. 231–250.
Gam as a marker of the result text unit of the prophetic announcement (PA) occurs in the judgmeent speech, hence it is a marker of the announcement of punishment which connotes the negative reciprocity fairness from the part of Yahweh. It takes initial position in a sentence and is followed independent first person pronoun; in most cases it is preceded by the conjunction wə. PA with gam + independent personal pronoun belongs to the style of exilic-postexilic prophets, who are familiar with the fully conceptualized idea of the covenant – reciprocal relationship between Yahweh and his people. This usage of gam in Ezekiel, other propetic books and Proverbs is probably influenced by the language of the Holiness Code (Lev 26).

Исследуются познавательные возможности Палеи Толковой - важного источника по истории средневековой Руси - относительно финно-угроведения.

Discussing the variants חבלי־מות in Psa 18,5 and משברי־מות in 2 Sam 22,5 I join Talmon in considering them not transmission errors, but synonymous readings. However, I demonstrate that the equating of these two terms as both denoting “birth pangs” is not attested in the Hebrew Bible but is a later exegetical development. I argue ...
