Abstract
Two notations of parallelism which extends beyond a single poetic unit have appeared in this chapter: both repetitive and semantic parallelism was noted in all forms of relationship. The two main types of parallelism, repetitive and semantic, are distinguished easily by the two forms of notation (superscript vs. priming) and the number of occurrences is immediately visible, making it easy to glance back and note the previous examples of any given parallelism. Though semantic parallelism is not the strongest recall device in distant parallelism (repetitive parallelism being stronger), various chains of semantic parallelisms are formed, with different nuances developing at one point or another of the sequence and in various semantic relationships with previous elements of the chain. The only really plausible example of distant phonetic parallelism unaided by near parallelism in ʿnt I is yṯʿr; yʿsr, where the actual parallelism is assured by position, semantics, and grammar.Keywords: repetitive parallelism; semantic parallelisms
