Modern linguistics is a relative newcomer in the scientific world,
and text-linguistics, or discourse analysis, is one of its youngest
disciplines. This fact has inclined many toward scepticism of its
value for the Hebraist, yet much benefit is thereby overlooked. In
this work, the author examines recent contributions to Hebrew
text-linguistics by Niccacci, Andersen, Eskhult, Khan, and
Longacre, evaluating them against a twofold standard of theoretical
and methodological integrity, and clarity of communication. An
extensive introduction to one particularly promising model of text
analysis (from Longacre's tagmemic school) is given, and a
step-by-step methodology is presented. Analyses according to this
model and methodology are given of seven extended text samples,
each building on the findings of the previous analyses: Judg. 2;
Lev. 14.1-32; Lev. 6.1-7.37; parallel instructions and historical
reports about the building of the Tabernacle, from Exodus 25-40;
Judg. 10.6-12.7; and the book of Ruth in its entirety. Considerable
attention is given to the question of text-linguistics and reported
speech.
