Juhás has been admirably careful and thorough in executing the task he undertook. Anyone wishing to contribute to the na' debate in future could do well to use this book as a starting point. Apart from Juhás's examination of how the particle was rendered in other languages, his detailed tables of occurrences in various parts of the Hebrew Bible, and his coverage of the history of the debate, make the book an excellent basis for studying the issue. More generally, the book holds much interest for any scholar concerned with the problems of translating ancient languages. - Geoffrey Sampson (University of Essex), on: linguistlist.org (February 2018).
