  2. who is yoav?

    If I am not mistaken, while you are correct and we all generally say chazak chazak v'nitchazek, I am pretty sure the correct grammar of it is v'nitchazak...

  3. somewhere in shemuel bet, yoav says "hazak ve-nithazak." i think this is where we get the phrase from. i once read somewhere about why the difference in pronounciation (due to grammar evolution) but i don't remember where or what.

    (similar to yigadal vs. yitgadel?)
