In recent years, Old Testament scholars have come to see that the
aesthetic and rhetorical richness of Hebrew poetry goes far beyond
simple synonymous, antithetic, and synthetic parallelism. One
aspect that has yet to receive sustained treatment is the poetic
device known as direct discourse or quotation--the direct citation
of a person's speech. Rolf A. Jacobson remedies this lack and makes
a significant contribution to Old Testament studies by offering a
sustained investigation into the function of direct discourse in
the Hebrew Psalter. This leads to a greater understanding both of
direct discourse and also of those psalms in which this poetic
device occurs.
