Aramaic Documents from Egypt: A Key-Word-in-Context Concordance - Hardcover

by Bezalel Porten (Author), Jerome A. Lund (Author)

This work is a KWIC (key-word-in-context) concordance and prosopography of the Aramaic documents from ancient Egypt as published in the four-volume edition edited by B. Porten and A. Yardeni: Textbook of Aramaic Documents from Ancient Egypt. Most of the documents indexed here are from the Persian period; they are legal, epistolary, and administrative.

This comprehensive concordance will prove very useful to students of Aramaic who wish to have access to the collocations presented, students of the society and history of Persian-era Egypt, as well as those interested in personal names and their contribution to our understanding of both history and language.

Published by Eisenbrauns for the Comprehensive Aramaic Lexicon project.
