Young Bok Kim investigates the patterns of nominal forms of address in Biblical and Epigraphic Hebrew, revealing their role in conveying various social relationships between speakers and addressees. Drawing on modern sociolinguistic theories on address and politeness, Kim uncovers the underlying rules governing address usage. This interdisciplinary approach not only elucidates the intricacies of social structure in ancient Israel but also offers valuable insights for the field of Hebrew exegesis.
