Hebrew Parallelism

The three types of Hebrew parallelism: “synonymous, antithetical, and synthetic”. Parallelisms are ideas that don’t always interact with other words but they are repetition of words in structure form. One of the three forms of parallelism is synonymous, which can be defined as “closed similarity between line structures of the writing (Tullock & McEntire, 2006 p. 189).” Secondly, the antithetical form of parallelism is when the “second line contrast with the first line (Tullock & McEntire, 2006 p. 189).” Lastly, the synthetic form of parallelism is when “the second expression or line further supports the idea of the first line (Tullock & McEntire, 2006 p. 189).” A personal example would be in reading my mother book and having access to three very different authors of poetry the parallelism is that the wording is repetition and sometimes even rhymes. However, one of the authors in the book uses the antithetical form which often makes the reader thinks he or she has misread the text because the lines do contrast with one another.
Therefore, second line contrast with the first line is my justification.
Psalm 2:4 is an example of synonymous form of parallelism because the closed similarity between line structures of the writing “He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh; the Lord shall have them in derision (Bible Hub, 2016).” The similarity laugh is fun, while derision is to mockery, which is where the similarity is present within the scripture.
Psalm 95:3 is an example of synthetic form of parallelism due to the second expression or line further supports the idea of the first line. “For the Lord is a great God, and a great king above all Gods (Bible Hub, 2016).” All of these define Gods
