Reviews

Provided that there are those readers out there who sympathize with diachronic approaches to Hebrew (indeed there are many) and those who are concerned with semantic change rather than the kind of information that lexica typically have on offer (there are some), Hurvitz's lexicon will undoubtedly be a milestone for the research of Late Biblical Hebrew in the years to come.
