Document Details : Title: Is יום ה (the Day of the Lord) a Term in Biblical Language? Author(s): ISHAI-ROSENBOIM, Daniella Journal: Biblica Volume: 87 Issue: 3 Date: 2006 Pages: 395-401 DOI: 10.2143/BIB.87.3.3189055 Abstract : The collocation יום ה in the Biblical language is not a term, as it does not answer the criterion of being a term: one, specific and unchanged expression referring to one, specific and unchanged concept: Rather, this collocation may be replaced by other ones (e.g. יום אפו/אפך, יום נקם לה, יום אף ה, יום לה) and on the other hand the concept is referred to also (mostly!) by another expression (היום ההוא); nor does it refer exclusively to the concept of ‘The Day of the Lord’. None of the cultures continuing the Biblical one refer to the concept by this collocation or by a translation of it. |
