WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING AT
Track a pronoun back to its referent
Once a passage contains several people or nouns, a pronoun can only be understood by tracking what it points back to. Hebrew gender, number, word order, and discourse context all help. This slide shows an annotated biblical paragraph with arrows from pronouns to their antecedents, then removes the arrows in the next reader.
