ON PERIPHRASTIC GENITIVE CONSTRUCTIONS IN BIBLICAL HEBREW.

- Abstract
J. M. Allegro has convincingly shown that the archaic Hebrew relative pronoun can function as a genitive marker in a common Semitic pattern Noun Pronoun Noun (cf. Aramaic bayta di-malka). So far, it has been assumed that once was replaced by this pattern was no longer possible in Hebrew. The current paper offers data which indicate that at least in Biblical Hebrew can still function as a genitive marker.
