Yodh-Lamedh.","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Dictionary of Classical Hebrew Revised (DCHR) (2018-2028) is a complete revision in nine volumes, with over 100,000 improvements, of the original Dictionary of Classical Hebrew (DCH) (1993-2016). When completed, DCHR will be 5 million words in length (equivalent to 50 standard-size books), 25% longer than DCH, and 4 times the length of BDB and HALOT.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe fourth Volume of The Dictionary of Classical Hebrew Revised, Yodh-Lamedh, arrives 27 [28 if 2026] years after the publication of the corresponding volume in the first edition (DCH) in 1998. It has taken 2 years particularly because of the publication of The Shorter Dictionary of Classical Hebrew Revised (SDCHR) in 2025, which was always planned by David J.A. Clines (1938-2022) to appear in print before all nine volumes were produced, so that scholars might have access to the most essential elements of DCHR as soon as possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe present volume, DCHR IV, contains some 1557 words (lemmas), of which 573 are 'new words' (i.e. not in BDB); DCHR IV thus adds c. 60.4% to the number of words for Yodh-Lamedh that are to be found in BDB and other Hebrew dictionaries. DCHR IV also has some 40% more material than DCH IV, which consists of many thousands of additions and corrections, references to the multitude of Dead Sea Scrolls texts and inscriptions published since 1998, and a much expanded Bibliography. It is anticipated that the subsequent volumes of DCHR will be published at a somewhat swifter pace, with Volumes V to IX arriving by 2028, as well as The Concise Dictionary of Classical Hebrew Revised in 2026. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eClines, David Ja:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - David J.A.
