“…Based on this explanation, it can simply be said that parallelism is part of repetition but at the same time repetition is also part of parallelism. Therefore, in this study repetition and parallelism in a certain sense can be considered as two same concepts although they both differ in that parallelism involves both identification and differentiation, while repetition only involves identification [7].…”

This paper aims at describing and analyzing the types and functions of parallelism used by Matthew Henry in his bible commentary. Parallelism is defined as the correspondence of one verse or line with another. Thus, parallelism in this sense is not limited to the parallel form of grammatical construction but covers also the parallel sense or idea of an expression. By referring to Lowth's types of parallelism, this study classifies the types of parallelism into synthetic, antithetic, and synonymous. In writing his bible commentary, Matthew Henry frequently made use of rhetorical devices and parallelism is one of them. The data of this study were collected from the commentary of the Gospel of Matthew that has been translated into Indonesian. The researchers will identify all parallel forms in the commentary of the Gospel of Matthew and classify them based on their types and functions. Each type and function of parallelism will be analyzed in terms of its construction and/or its meaning.

“…Fox's paper (Chapter 5) examines the linguistic bases for the notion of an 'inner person' and the 'outward' representation of that person within Rotenese society. He draws, in particular, on the evidence of Rotenese ritual language that gives formal expression to the categorisation of thought and emotion (Fox 2014(Fox , 2016. Barbara Dix Grimes (Chapter 6) offers a similar examination of the expression of thought and emotion, among the Tetun of Timor, not as abstract 'feelings', but as 'body talk'.…”

Towards a comparative study of the structure of sentiment among the Austronesians 1 James J. Fox 1 Rodney Needham, my D.Phil. supervisor at Oxford, came to prominence with the publication of his book Structure and Sentiment (1962). Years later, after the publication of his book Belief, Language and Experience (1972), he set to work on a book he said would be entitled The Structure of Sentiment. His intent was, I believe, to examine the structural patterning of categories of thought and the emotions, but he never completed this book and never revealed its contents. Without any certain idea of the substance of this work, I have chosen to insinuate his title into this introduction as a personal link to the comparative effort I imagine he had hoped to provoke.

“…Lexical, semantic and syntactic parallelism are all found in a recurrent and complex manner throughout Eastern Indonesia, a trait which James Fox has repeatedly highlighted, especially in two major works (Fox 1988(Fox , 2014.
