Hebrew Bible, Hebrew Biblical PoetryAbstract
The prose and the poetry of the Hebrew Bible keep similarities and
differences, but to delimit their form is not easy. Besides that, if the form keeps relation with the content, we admit that by telling the same story in different ways (prose and poetry) will show a distinct purpose as well. The article is an analysis of the relationship between form and content in Judges 4 and 5 from the differences and similarities between prose and poetry.
