Overview
Leading Hebrew language scholars outline various views on the phenomenon of variation in biblical Hebrew and its significance for biblical studies. An important question that is addressed is whether ""late biblical Hebrew"" is a distinct chronological phase within the history of biblical Hebrew. Articles explore both chronological and non-chronological interpretations of the differences between ""early biblical Hebrew"" and ""late biblical Hebrew"". These discussions have an important contribution to make to the wider field of biblical studies, not only to the history of the Hebrew language.

Reviews
No Quote -The Catholic Biblical Quarterly, 67, 2005 Young's effort to maintain the conversation between different voices on the subject in bringing together the present collection of essays is to be applauded. From the survey of the careful explorations on chronology and typology in BH within this volume, it would seem that a fruitful exchange of ideas has begun already. -Journal of Hebrew Scriptures, 2004-05 * Journal of Hebrew Scriptures *
