ABSTRACT
The Biblical Hebrew's story does not have punctuation such as commas, full stops and question marks. Instead, we can see the symbol appearing periodically throughout the text. This symbol is called sof pasuq. Hebrew Bible is used to mark the end of a verse and can be thought of as roughly equivalent to a full stop, though in some cases it may be more similar to a comma, semicolon, question mark, or exclamation mark. This means that they will have to work out its exact sense depending on the context in which it appears. The sof pasuq is the only biblical punctuation symbol they need to know. However, the Hebrew definite article can also be used in a few other ways that do not correspond precisely to English. Original verse numbers are included so that one can locate them in an English or bilingual Bible edition; the numbers are not consecutive because some verses have been omitted from the adaptation.
