Traditional analyses of case in Biblical Aramaic cannot explain how people used the language to communicate because-- among other reasons--one signal indicates both dative and accusative. In this new Form-Content analysis of BA case, la--like all signa1s--is associated with only one meaning: MID importance in precipitating the occurrence the paper, the objective pronominal suffix is also redefined, in a way that can account for the hitherto inexplicable occurrence in Daniel 5:6. Finally, comparison is made with recent transformational approaches to case, showing that they share many of the failings of the traditional approaches.
