Recent Theories about the Syntax of Biblical Hebrew Verb, II. The Texts

Abstract

In this second part of the paper 1 try to test the validity of the different theories that have been discussed in the first part when they are put in contact with the texts of Ezekiel's Book. The point is to make a critical judgment of each of them. When 1 have to explain the texts, it comes out to the light that the aspectual-temporal theory is full of deficiencies. On the contrary, the textual view allows a wide range of possibilities.
