Book excerpt: Excerpt from Analysis and Critical Interpretation of the Hebrew Text of the Book of Genesis: Preceded by a Hebrew Grammar, and Dissertations on the Genuineness of the Pentateuch and on the Structure of the Hebrew Language While engaged in the study of the Hebrew language many years ago, it occurred to me that a very useful work might be composed, in order to facilitate its acquisition, having the Hebrew text of Genesis for its basis. The excellent Hebrew Grammars and Lexicons published of late years, and such works on Hebrew philology, as the Philologia Sacra of Glussius, and Storrii Observutiones, etc., and such helps to the interpretation of the Hebrew text, as the Scholia of the younger Eosenmiiller, would, I thought, enable any one moderately qualified, to render such a work highly instrumental to the advancement of the student's progress in the Hebrew language, and to the profitable study of the Hebrew Scriptures. Under this impression, I commenced the Analytical part of this work, which, fortified by the favourable opinion expressed of it by competent judges, I now submit to the public. In this part of it, every word is analysed, numbered, and indexed. In the first chapter all the accents are marked, their names and powers given, and the reasons assigned when the words arc accented contrary to the general rule. In the first three chapters, all the words are written in the English as well as in the Hebrew characters, and syllabled, in order to lessen the difficulty of reading the Hebrew text.
