My research focuses on expressions of causality in Biblical Hebrew. The biblical narrative displays a distinct understanding of causality by explaining historical events through the interaction of divine intervention, human actions, and natural forces. My research focuses on how causality is conveyed in the Hebrew Bible, examining two key aspects: (1) the linguistic aspect, including the terms, phrases, and syntax used to express the causal relationship between events; and (2) the theological aspect, including the beliefs and theosophy that shape the events described. The research will use tools of linguistics study and cognitive models of causality perception in the human mind.
