Is Hebrew poetry made from the rhyming of words?
Hebrew poetry is not based on the rhyming of words as in English poetry. Instead, Hebrew poetry uses parallelism, a technique in which lines are structured similarly, to create rhythm and emphasis. Parallelism can take various forms, including synonymous parallelism (where lines repeat the same idea), antithetical parallelism (where lines contrast ideas), and synthetic parallelism (where lines build upon each other to create a complex image or idea). Hebrew poetry also often uses imagery, metaphors, and symbolism to convey meaning and create a vivid experience for the reader.
