Series Foreword

T

he study of languages forms the foundation of any study of ancient societies. While we are dependent upon archaeology to unearth pottery, tools, buildings, and graves, it is through reading the documentary evidence that we learn the nuances of each culture—from receipts and letters to myths and legends. And the access to those documents comes only through the basic work of deciphering scripts, conjugating verbs, untangling syntax, and mastering vocabulary. Ancient Language Resources brings together some of the most significant reference works for the study of ancient languages, including grammars, dictionaries, and related materials. While most of the volumes will be reprints of classic works, we also intend to include new publications. The linguistic circle is widely drawn, encompassing Egyptian, Sumerian, Akkadian, Ugaritic, Phoenician, Hattic, Hittite (Nesite), Hurrian, Hebrew, Aramaic, Syriac, Ethiopic, Arabic, Greek, Coptic, Latin, Mandaean, Armenian, and Gothic. It is the hope of the publishers that this will continue to encourage study of the ancient languages and keep the work of groundbreaking scholars accessible. —K. C. Hanson Series Editor

Foreword

R

obert Dick Wilson (1856–1930) was born in Indiana, Pennsylvania. He attended Princeton University as both an undergraduate and a graduate student. He did post-graduate work at Humboldt University in Berlin. He was Professor of Old Testament Languages and History at the Western Theological Seminary (later to become Pittsburgh Theological Seminary) when he wrote the present volume. Later he became William Henry Green Professor of Semitic Languages and Old Testament at Princeton Theological Seminary—a chair he held from 1900 to 1929. In the last year of his life, he was Professor of Semitic Philology and Old Testament Criticism at Westminster Theological Seminary. In addition to the present work, his publications include: “Lost Meaning of Hebrew Roots.” Presbyterian and Reformed Review 13 (1902) 277–92. “Babylon and Israel: A Comparison of Their Leading Ideas Based upon Their Vocabularies.” Princeton Theological Review 1 (1903) 239–55. “Groundless Attacks in the Field of Oriental Scholarship.” Bible Student and Teacher 1 (1904) 356–60. Studies in the Book of Daniel: A Discussion of the Historical Questions. Vol. 1. New York: Putnam, 1917.

A Scientific Investigation of the Old Testament. New York: Harper, 1929.

Wilson was theologically conservative and used his vast knowledge of ancient languages to defend the Bible in the theological controversies of the early twentieth century. When the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church reorganized Princeton Theological Seminary in 1929 (when he was 74), he left to help found the Westminster Theological Seminary in Philadelphia, along with J. Gresham Machen, Oswald T. Allis, and Cornelius Van Til. He was able to give only one lecture at the new seminary, however, before his final illness and death. —K. C. Hanson

PREFACE. THE plan of this METHODAND MANUALis in general the same as that of the corresponding "Introductory Hebrew ~ethod and Manual" of Professor W.R. Harper, Ph.D. The following notes may be in place by way of explanation. The first four chapters of Genesis (which are copied with variations from Nestle's " Syriac Grammar") are chosen because they afford the best means of comparison with the Hebrew of Professor Harper's " Manual." The selections from the 10th to the 32d page, inclusive, lead up gmdually :from more easy to more difficult portions of the Peshito version. The last selection is the introductory portion of the history of Rabban Soma, possessed in ma.nuscript by the author and never before published. Being printed in the Nestorian alphabet, it will be useful as an introduction to the East Syriac system of writing.. For assistance in reading this .selection the reader is referred especially to the note under Section I., Article 6, and to Article 6. 6. of the '' Elements." The "Notes and Observations" need no remark, except that the latter contain all of the main principles of Syriac grammar, while the former give all explanations necessary for a full understanding of the orthography, etymology, and syntax of the text. The "Grammar Lessons " carry the student over all the articles of the "Elements of Syriac Grammar," with reviews of the same. The "Word Lessons" contain only such words as are not in the verses of Genesis, upon which the "Exercises" are largely based. When the grammar lesson has b~en upon a certain subject, the word lesson gives such words as throw light upon it ; e.g., in Lesson XI. tbe grammar lesson is on Lomadh Olaph verbs; the word lesson consists largely of Lomadh Olaph verbs. The vocabulary thus learned can be enlarged from the " Word Lists " on pp.

PREFACE.

134-147. The "Exercises" are based upon the text of Genesis and upon the grammar and word lessons. · They wiH be found, it is hop!:ld,an excellent means of fixing in the memory the principles of grammar and the words of most common use. The "Exercises" can be supplemented by the transliteration of Genesis l, and by the literal translation of Genesis I.-IV., found at the end of the "Olume.

The form ~ in this lesson denotes, (1) a simple past, e.g. Jccnvs. 1, (2) a pluperfect, ~ vs. 1, (3) a present perfect, e.g. the second ~1 in vs. 1, (4) a pr~sent (Greek 2nd perfect)'¾.~ vs. 5, 109.

OBSERVATIONS,

113. Nominal clauses are those which have a noun for predicate, s ,. --•. ~'.,. • ,. ~ ~? vs. 7; ~ ..)

. . wit . h r-,a...? vs. 6; e, g. t he c1auses begmnmg

109 vs. 9; ;-!i~rvs.10; and vs. lt; ~ vs. rn; ~ vs:· H. Verbal sentences are those whose predicate and cop;ula are a verbal form, e. g. the sentences beginning with "i,...~ vs. 6, ~ VS, 7 etc. . 114. As in Hebrew, the personal pronoun is frequently used as a copula, vss. 61 11 and 13. 115. 'l'h:e personal pronouns may be used to emphasize the persons denoted by the ·forms·of the verb, compare ...~, vs. 1'2. 116. The Infinitive is really a verbal noun i. e. it is governed like a noui;i an~ .governs like a verb, e. g. ~~ for eating, ~ for look.ingat, vs; 6. See§ 120.. . .. 11 7. The same forms are used to denote the Reflexive and Passives. For the former compare

~"l

vs. 8, for the I.atter .....b..s"lvs. 7.

118 .. The participle when used like .the Arabic accusative of con. dition is indefinite but agrees with its antecedent in number and gender,. 119; When the relative is to be governed by a preposition the relative ? is placed first as usual and the preposition follows with a pronominal suffix agreeing in gender and number and person with .the antecedent of the relative. 120. Nouns are frequently placed in an abnormal position at the beginning of a sentence, their place in the sentence being assumed b;y: a pronoun,

e'.g. l-'~l

vs. 12.
