By Benjamin Holloway

In "Remarks On Dr. Sharp's Pieces On the Words Elohim and Berith," Benjamin Holloway presents a detailed linguistic analysis concerning the divine names "Elohim" and "Berith." Published in 1751, this scholarly work critically examines Dr. Sharp's interpretations, particularly focusing on the suitability of the Arabic language as a potential root for the divine name "Elohim." Holloway extends his analysis to include comparative assessments of Chaldee, Syriac, and Samaritan dialects, providing a rich linguistic context for understanding the origins and usage of these sacred terms.
