In this volume Andrew Chin Hei Leong shows that the concepts of balance, alliance, and completeness form the basic semantic structure of ????. Previous studies on ???? employed either historical or textual methodology, which has been dominant in biblical lexical studies. In addition to these methods, in Leong develops a systematic semantic methodology from Cognitive Semantics and Frame Semantics, to demonstrate that it is balance, rather than completeness, that is the most central concept in holding the semantic network together. 410 0$aStudies in Semitic Languages and Linguistics ;$v104. 517 3 $aThe Root ?lm for Completeness-Balance 606 $aLinguistics 615 0$aLinguistics. 676 $a420 700 $aLeong$b Andrew Chin Hei$01690143 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910972994603321 996 $aA cognitive semantic study of biblical Hebrew$94065692 997 $aUNINA
