Parallelisms Defined
#1
Shlama Akhay,

There are four types of Parallelisms in the scriptures that show an Aramaic original. These are:
  • Antithetic - where a second line contrasts the terms used in the first line

    Synonymous - where there is a correspondence in idea between 2 lines of a couplet, the 2nd line reinforcing and echoing the sense of the 1st in equivalent, though different, terms.

    Synthetic - where the thought of the 2nd line supplements and completes that of the first

    Climactic - where the second line is not a complete echo of the first, but adds something more which completes the 1st, thus forming its climax
