This study tackles the neglected subject of word order in biblical
Hebrew poetry. The fact that the order of clause constituents
frequently differs from that found in prose has often been noted,
but no systematic attempt has been offered by way of explanation.
Here two separate factors are taken into consideration: that of
purely poetic variation (defamiliarisation), and that of pragmatic
markedness. This work offers a new approach to the poetry of the
Old Testament that will aid towards more accurate translation,
exegesis, and discourse analysis of poetic texts.
