    In th period since th previous volume of th Dictionary was published, in August 1998, th project to produce th Dictionary has faced serious difficul- ties, which have now been happily resolved. The publishers of th Dictionary, Sheffield Academic Press, who had supported th research for th Dictionary most generously, were unable to continue that support, and for a time th future of th Dictionary was in question. However, applications for funding from th newly constituted Arts and Humanities Research Board proved successali, and grants amounting to almost 200,000 were awarded to meet th cost of two Research Associates to prepare th present volume. In 2000, we learned of a further grant from th AHRB, of over 500,000, which will ensure th support of th Dictionary until its completion, now envisaged by th end of th year 2005. The rights to th Dictionary have been acquired by a new company, The Dictionary of Classical Hebrew Ltd, which holds th copyright to th work, while Sheffield Academic Press remains th publisher and dis- tributor.

    The last three years have also seen important changes in th staffing of th Dictionary: John Elwolde, who had been one of th Dictionary team since its inception in 1988 and had served as Executive Editor from 1993 to 1998, left for another post. The term of Frank Gosling, who joined th project as Research Associate in June 1994, carne to an end in July 1998, and we thank both for th important contributions they made to th Dictionary. Fortunately, David Stec, who has been with th project since 1992, remains as its mainstay, and Siam Bhayro joined us in November 2000. With these two researchers in place, and our funding assured to th completion of th project with Volume 8, we have nothing to distract us from th main business of delivering th remaining volumes in timely fashion.

    In th Preface to Volume 4,1 gave a sketch of th method of working we employ in th composition of th articles of th Dictionary. In this Preface,

  • The Dictionary of Classical Hebrew

    I will present an outline of th way in which th Bibliography has been com- piled.

    The Bibliography to Mem and Nun (containing over 3500 items) has been created, as a full-time task occupying th Editor for th first six months of 2001, from a number of sources such as th Elenchus Bibliographicus Biblicus, th 'Bibliographische Dokumentation' in Zeitschrift fiir Althebraistik, and th Hebrisches und aramaisches Lexikon zum Alten Testament of Ludwig Koehler and Walter Baumgartner (HALAT) and its translation into English by M.E.J. Richardson (HALOT), as well as a personal perusal of all th works of G.R. Driver and Mitchell Dahood (insofar as they were accessible to me). The bibliography has been weighted toward more recent works, and on th whole has not included literature that does not propound a new view but merely supports th view of another scholar.

    Once th Bibliography had been compiled from its sources, I created what I called my Library Search Database and uploaded into it th biblio- graphical data for all th references I had not already read in my study and would need to visit a library to read. For each item in a journal, I had three fields: (1) Hebrew word, (2) journal name, volume and year, (3) author, article title, with journal and page references. From th database I could then print out a list of all th items arranged by journal and volume number, so that in th library I could easily pul from th shelves all th volumes I needed of Biblische Zeitschrift or Vetus Testamentum or whatever, load them on my library trolley, and take them to my desk to look up each item in turn. The checklist told me exactly which items I needed to consult, what th page reference was, and what th Hebrew word was I was looking for on that pageas well as distinguishing items already checked from those that were yet to be checked.

    Once I had a given article open before me, my first task was to check th author's name (I believe in citing authors by th name they use of them- selves), th title of th article (more than half th items I had derived from my bibliographical sources either did not mention th title or else quoted it incor- rectly) and th reference, with correct page numbers for th entire article and specific page numbers in brackets where appropriate (another fertile source of errors). My second task was to read as much of th article as I needed in order to discover th author's view, usually th proposai of a new sense for an

    8

  • Preface

    already known word or of a new word altogether, or of an emendation that we would not otherwise have known about. I would then check th proof of our own article on th word in question to see how we were handling it, and, in th light both of th journal article and of our own Dictionary article, I would write a note of a few lines in my Additions file for my Dictionary asso- ciates, spelling out th changes that would be necessary. The Research Associates were in th best position to make changes to th articles they them- selves had drafted, taking care of insertions and corrections and formatting and cross-referencing.

    For books and articles in books such as Festschriften, th procedure was slightly different. For these, my file for uploading to th database had just two fields for each item: (1) Hebrew word and (2) all th rest of th biblio- graphical information. Once th data were loaded, it was time to find out where I could read th books I had in th Bibliography. Quite recently, th electronic union catalogue known as COPAC has reached th zenith of its development, and I could now access from my home computer th catalogues of th twenty members of th Consortium of University Research Libraries (CURL), th largest university libraries in th United Kingdom. I needed to enter on th search screen no more, usually, than th author's surname and one word of th book title to find which British libraries held it, what its shelfmark was in each library, and whether it was at that moment in th library or out. In th database, I entered th shelfmark (classmark) of every title I needed in Sheffield, or, failing that, in Manchester, or failing that, in Leeds, or, failing that, in Cambridge. I was also able to fili out all th bibliographical details and make th Bibliography for this volume reasonably complete before visiting a library and checking th book itself. In my printout of books to be checked, th database arranged th items by library and by shelfmark, so that I knew which books I would need to see in which of my library visits, and was able to move around th various libraries in a sedate and efficient man- ner. Once I actually had th book in my hands, I worked just as I did with th articles. Not surprisingly, working though th literature uncovered new items that needed to be examined; by entering them then and there into th database, they appeared in my checklist at th right place.

    Preparing a bibliography, and ensuring it is correct, may seem a mech-

    9

  • The Dictionary of Classical Hebrew

    anical task; my experience for this Dictionary has been that th mechanical aspects are th least of it, and that th better part of th work has been a rewarding, even exciting, intellectual task. The result is, I believe, an unrival- led resource, an index (necessarily far from exhaustive) of scholarly work on Hebrew words during th twentieth century. (More about th principles of th Bibliography may be found in th Introduction to this volume.)

    This is th moment to express my appreciation to Milton Eng, Victor Avigdor Hurowitz and Gary Rendsburg, who contributed information for th Bibliography. A note of thanks is in order here also to th firm of Linguists' Software, and especially to its founder and guide, Philip Payne, for creating type faces for biblical scholars working on th Macintosh, enabling them to reproduce every feature of th Masoretic text and type all th diacritics for th Semi tic languages in transliteration. We have continued to prepare th Dictionary in Microsoft Word 5.1, having found later versions of th programme too unstable and unreliable.

    I should finally mention how th work of preparing this Volume has been divided up. David Stec was responsible for writing th greater part of it, as well as for preparing th revisions to th List of Sources. John Elwolde wrote th drafts of certain words beginning Mem Aleph and of most words beginning Mem Yod, Mem Samek, Mem Ayin, Mem Sin and Mem Shin (to n^p support), as well as th article np what, while Siam Bhayro drafted th remainder of th words beginning Mem Shin and th article ntp Moses. Every- thing else was written by David Stec. Togther, David Stec and Siam Bhayro wrote articles for all th 'new' words and amended th originai drafts in accordance with th data of th Bibliography. Rosemarie Kossov contributed th entries from TDOT and TLOT to th Bibliography, and prepared th English-Hebrew Index. David Clines edited and proofread th entire volume in its three sets of proofs, and prepared th Bibliography.

  • INTRODUCTION

    The principles and procedures followed in th previous volumes of th Dictionary have been continued here without any substantive changes; in only one respect has there been a revision of earlier practice, as noted below.

    1. 'New' Words and BibliographyIn all th volumes of th Dictionary, 'new' words have been included that have been recognized or proposed (rightly or wrongly) in th scholarly litera- ture of recent decades. Such words, which we have previously defined as not having entered th mainstream of th lexicographic tradition, have been pre- fixed by an asterisk referring to a supportive entry in th Bibliography (though not in Volume 1).

    From this volume onward, we are adopting a closer definition of a 'new' word: it is, simply, a word that did not appear in th Brown-Driver- Briggs lexicon of 1907. The asterisk before an entry is now applied to all words, including proper names, that are not to be found in that lexicon, whether th word occurs first in Ben Sirach or in th Dead Sea Scrolls or in Hebrew inscriptions, or whether th word has been identified or suggested by a scholar since that date. Some of these words have of course found their way into Koehler's Lexicon or th Koehler and Baumgartner Hebrisches und aramaisches Lexikon zum Alten Testament (Leiden: E.J. Brill, 1967-94), translated as The Hebrew and Aramaic Lexicon of th Old Testament, or into th Lexicon Hebraicum of Franz Zorell. In such cases, th Bibliography notes th fact. In th majority of cases, however, this Dictionary is th first to cite such 'new' words. In principle, each asterisk refers to an item in th Bibliography; in a number of cases, however, with words occurring first in Ben Sira or in Qum- ran texts, no substantive discussion of th word in th scholarly literature has

  • The Dictionary of Classical Hebrew

    been identified, and th asterisk simply records that th word is 'new', with- out any corresponding entry in th Bibliography.

    Readers may be interested to know that in this Volume, devoted to words beginning with Mem or Nun, some 720 words are registered as 'new' words not occurring in BDB; this figure may be compared with th c. 1400 words recognized by that lexicon. The meaning of many of these 'new' words is inferred from our existing knowledge of th Hebrew language, as when, for example, a noun occurring for th first time in a Qumran manuscript can be easily identified as a formation from a well-known Hebrew verb. The meaning, and indeed th very existence, of many others depend upon an associa- tion with a word in another Semitic language. In almost all cases, key evidence for th existence of a 'new' word is noted, in th format ii?pp II step (cf. Arab. a'ida go up) or rnnm II signal station (cf. in] II shin)-, th meaning of th word compared is not however stated if it is th same as that of th Hebrew lemma. The citation of cognates in other languages is not intended to be exhaustive, and such citation does not indicate that we agree that th comparison with th apparently cognate word is valid (or even that we accept th genuine existence of th word in question in th other language). The notation merely indicates th ground that th scholar cited has put forward in support of th proposal.

    It should be stressed that th inclusion of a word in this Dictionary does not carry with it any assurance that its existence is established. Many of th proposals are in fact mutually exclusive. Nevertheless, we have come to th view that it is th proper business of a dictionary of th classical Hebrew language at this juncture to record, as far as is feasible, th very many proposals that have been made in th twentieth century for th refinement and expansion of our knowledge of th Hebrew vocabulary.

    The system of arrangement in th Bibliography is as follows. Within each of its paragraphs, items are usually arranged by date order; it may be assumed that authors mentioned are in favour of th meaning given, but occasionally an author provides a critique or reviews a proposai without making a decision for or against (in such cases, th entry is usually preceded by 'cf.'). Different senses given to a word each form a separate paragraph and are arranged alphabetically. Phrases in which th word occurs follow senses

    12

  • Introduction

    in which th word itself is used. Bibliography relating to an individuai occurrence of th word in question, such as proposals for th emendation of th Masoretic text, come last, and are prefixed by th verse reference. Readers may refer to th Bibliography on to?] soul or ara lift up for examples of how th system of notation works.

    2. Exhaustive TreatmentIn this volume every word beginning with Mem or Nun has been treated exhaustively, with only one exception: th preposition min, which occurs more than 9000 times in th corpus of Classical Hebrew. For all other words, every place they occur in Classical Hebrew has been cited, and every occurrence has been analysed according to th principles of th Dictionary.

  • The Sources

    a. Qumran and Related TextsThe following list and bibliography replaces those of Volume 1, pp. 34-45, 51- 54, Volume 2, pp. 15-31, Volume 3, pp. 11-27, and Volume 4, pp. 14-29. The second list of Dead Sea Scrolls published in Volume 1 (pp. 45-51), which cor- relates th sigla used in th Dictionary with numbers assigned to documents, will be replaced in th final volume of th Dictionary.

    For this Volume, we have adopted th text of th Qumran Secular Manuscripts module (ed. Martin Abegg) in th Accordance program as our standard text for certain documents, such as th Tempie Scroll (11QT). Such cases are noted in th fourth column of th following list. In th case of th Thanksgiving Hymns (1QH), we have used th edition of Licht for words beginning with Mem, and th Accordance text for words beginning with Nun. Readers should note that these two texts use different systems of num- bering.

    Qumran and Related Non-Biblical Texts in Cave and Number Order

    In this list, which is intended to include all known non-biblical texts in Hebrew, published and unpublished, from Qumran and related sites, there appear, in th five columns, th following:

    (1) The number by which th texts are known (in th case of four major Qumran texts from Cave 1 and several minor Cave 4 texts, no number is assigned).

    (2) The abbreviated title used in th Dictionary.(3) Short title or description of th text (titles are capitalized, whereas mere descriptions,

    such as 'sapiential', are shown in lower case).(4) A reference to th edition of th text that has been th standard for this Dictionary.(5) A reference to th page numbers of th translation of th text (or part of it) by F. Garcia

    Martinez; but occasionally th reference is to another English translation, notably that of

  • The Sources

    M. Wise, M. Abegg, and E. Cook (WAC). For th third column in particular, we have also made use of th latest translation of th Dead Sea Scrolls by G. Vermes.

    As far as we can teli, all published textsthat is, texts that have been printed in transcrip- tion, with or without translation and technical noteshave been read for th Dictionary and incorporated in it. As further texts are published, information relating to them will be in- cluded in updated lists in future volumes of th Dictionary.

  • WORDS BEGINNING WITH MEM AND NUN

    IN Order of Frequency

    In these tables are listed all th words beginning with Mem and Nun, in descending order of their frequency of occurrence in th corpus of classical Hebrew. Including proper names, there are 1428 words beginning with Mem, and 596 with Nun, 2024 in all. Words that are conjectured, and for which therefore no occurrence statistics are noted in th Dictionary, are of course absent from this list. Words for which th lemma form is reconstructed (for example, when only plural forms are attested and th presumed singular form is therefore shown within square brackets) are included, without their square brackets.

    In th first column, a number ranks th words in order of frequency. Following th Hebrew word itself, and (in th case of homonyms) a roman numerai to distinguish one word from another spelled alike, five columns of figures follow. They record in turn th number of occurrences of th word in th four corpora of texts that comprise Classical Hebrewth Masoretic text of th Hebrew Bible (MT), Ben Sira (Si), th Dead Sea Scrolls (Qumran and related texts) (Q) and th Hebrew inscriptions (Inscr)and th total number of occurrences. It is this total that determines a word's position in th table. In th next column th part of speech is noted, and a simple gloss follows, to identify th word in question.
