The first chapter of this unusual and instructive work shows how
the study of sound patterns in Old Testament Hebrew poetry is
integral to the investigation of bublical poetry. Then several
chapters describe and systematize the sound patterns, beginning
with simpler examples of assonance and alliteration. The analysis
gradually moves on to more complex configurations which link words
and phrases, emphasize key words, mark off syntactical and semantic
units, and highlight word repetition and word play. A relationship
between sound pattern and meaning in each proverb is shown
throughout.
