Abstract
It is well known that the Puritans knew Hebrew; but what Hebrew did they know? And what were the consequences and implications of this knowledge? For the poet Edward Taylor, investigating his deep and far-reaching Hebraic commitments opens different avenues into his work and into the implications of Hebraism in American culture more generally.
