Mairead Sine Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Hello All, I am sorry to bother you but I've checked most of the topics in the Original Languages area and cant find anything that's as basic as my request. I have recently returned to school to do a Ph.D. I am not a Biblical student but a crossover between theology and history. However, there is an Amos and Social Justice course that in the Biblical stream that I received permission to take. My classmates and my professor have been wonderful to me, but I have suddenly realized what one of my problems is. I am surprised at what I do remember. However, I have forgotten everything there is to know about accents. I remember the pointing and the verb forms, but those tricky little accents that tell you direction, etc. have totally leaked from my brain. I remember when I took Introduction to Biblical Hebrew (I was less than half my current age) there was a little cardboard piece that explained accents in my Hebrew Bible. I cannot find it anywhere. I also cannot find it anywhere on the Accordance webpage. Can anyone help me please? Thank you. Mairead.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michel Gilbert Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Hi Mairead, I can't find my old bookmark to scan and send a copy. In case no one else can find one, the accents are conveniently listed in Gesenius' Hebrew Grammar, 2nd English Edition, §15 e-i, pp. 59-62. It is available in Acc at http://www.accordancebible.com/store/details/?pid=GKC%20Hebrew , or, in your library. Regards, Michel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthony Sepulveda Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Or maybe you can check out the Wiki page on cantillation, in the meantime: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cantillation 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken Simpson Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 (edited) I find the BHS Guide by Scott to be excellent for this, including the other marks, the Masorah and the BHS apparatus. http://www.accordancebible.com/store/details/?pid=BHS%20Guide Edited February 22, 2016 by Ken Simpson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
