Bibliography
Reconstructed Biblical Hebrew Vocalization of Wolfgang Richter
Wolfgang Richter and his team have produced a remarkable series of publications that, among Hebrew. other things, vocalized the entire Hebrew Bible3, Ben Sira and the corpus of Epigraphic Hebrew. The vocalization system used is explained in Richter 1983 and is briefly summarized in the introduction to the Genesis volume of Biblia hebraica transcripta (BHT). It should be noted that Richter's aim was to produce an "othographiebezogene morphologische Transkription" which perhaps might be translated as "morphological transcription within constraints imposed by the orthography of the MT". Although Richter did not intend to recreate EBHP, his transcriptions EBHP, are, in practice, fairly close to what we would understand EBHP to have been. Where his this transcriptions depart from the probable reality of EBHP, this is usually due to the constraints imposed on his method by the MT. This can be seen by comparing his transcriptions of the biblical texts in BHT with those of JEH, with their earlier orthography, in Althebrische
Inschriften transkribiert (AIT). .

Those wishing to make use of Richter's transcriptions to develop a close approximation to EBHP should note the following: indicate (1) The transcriptions do not indicate word stress; (2) The transcriptions do not indicate tonic lengthening of originally short vowels in closed stressed syllables in nouns in the absolute case (3) Because t h e g em in at i o n is d u e t o a semantic redundancy rule (i.e. it is a necessary/regular part of a grammatical feature) the transcriptions systematically omit the automatic gemination following: (a) the waw consecutive of the prefix conjugation;
ha(b) the article ha- ;

relative a(c) the relative a- . (4) 3ms. pronominal suffix - AHT gives, in deference to MT orthography, while AIT usually gives ahu (eg. p. 6 Lak2:2 cabd=hu to be vocalized [cabda dahu]). In EBHP it might have been / / /ahu/, /h/ or //. 2pl. (5) The transliteration usually leaves out the short vowels ("Bindervokal")4 before 2ms. and 2pl. pronominal prefixes on nouns. Thus 'your return' (Gen. 4:19) is transcribed b=ka reflecting a pronunciation of /bika/ or /ba bi baka/.

The EBHP (6) The transcriptions ignore the certain polyphonic nature in EBHP of the letters and but not that of . (7) Both BHT and AIT transliterate the qal ms. imp. as qtul (eg. AIT ktub p. 13, Arad 1:2; tum p. 16, Arad 17:2). However (inconsistently?), in deference to the MT The qal inf. constr. is vocalized qtul in BHT (eg. Judges 5:2a) but (the earlier form) qutul in AIT (eg. p. 7 Lak3:2
ulu=ka to be vocalized [uluika] or [uluaka]). Similarly, the ubiquitous opening for

quotations TH is vocalized l()mur in BHT but liumur in AIT (eg. p. 7 Lak3:6). )mur li Cf. Infinitive Construct and Masculine Singular Imperative of Qal C1VxC2VxC3 > C1C2VxC3 or
C1VxC2C3.
pre(8) The transcriptions reflect two developments in pre-exilic Hebrew that most experts consider exilic took place in the post exilic period: (a) the reduction of geminated final consonants ; and, syllable- wordalephs (b) the elision of syllable-or word-final alephs; (9) The transcriptions assume unstressed heterogeneous diphthong contraction that many postexperts consider took place in the post-exilic period.
It should also be noted, that Richters vowel transcriptions are exclusively phonemic giving no Richter ter [EBHP]. indication of probable short vowel allophones in [EBHP].

Oral = expressed in spoken form as distinct from written form. Aural = of hearing or sound; relating to the ear or hearing, or to receptiveness and response to speech. MT on the right hand page; Richter's vocalized transcription opposite on the left hand page. See Richter 1983 p. 130. I have found this book to be rather idiosyncratic see review in Jerusalem Post Oct. 24, 2004 This is an excellent article. However, I have found and verified the following typos -
1. P. 100 - the text has "... /i/ [i], [u]". This is a misprint for "... /i/ [i], [i]". 2. P. 92 and 93 - the text has "...[vajhi]". This is a misprint for "...[vajhi]". 3. P. 96 - the text has "...[mRim] 'guards'". This is a misprint for "... [mRim] 'guards'".

From Zevit's introduction The present discussion has broad implications for historical linguistics, comparative Semitics, the history of Hebrew, Israelite history, and biblical studies. Because of this, the National Association of Professors of Hebrew arranged a panel at the Annual Meeting of the Society of Biblical Literature in 2004. Scholars were invited to deal directly or tangentially with problems such as the following: Could Late Biblical Hebrew and Pre-exilic Biblical Hebrew coexist as living registers? And if so, for how long and under what conditions? Does Late Biblical Hebrew have a Babylonian origin? Is there evidence of Late Biblical Hebrew in Haggai and Zechariah? They were asked to consider theoretical issues such as the following that emerge from a consideration of Uriel Weinreich's well known and highly relevant Languages In Contact, The Hague, Paris: Mouton, 1970: What happens when languages change in general and how does this apply to Biblical Hebrew? How and under what conditions do languages shed and accumulate new features and how does this apply to Biblical Hebrew? How do languages accommodate themselves to new phonetic and cultural environments and how do they function? Under what sets of circumstances does dialectization occur and how do these apply to Biblical Hebrew?
