A Grammar of Samaritan Hebrew

Based on the Recitation of the Law in Comparison with Tiberian and Other Jewish Traditions

Synopsis
The Hebrew language comes down to us in several versions, each ethnic community having its own unique tradition of pronunciation. Even though these traditions are subject to the various vernaculars and sometimes differ markedly from each other, their common basis is evident. All, that is, but the pronunciation of the Samaritans, whose traditions stands apart from the others, unique and surprising.
