The substantive derek is double gendered in biblical Hebrew. The existence of so many agreements for each of the genders (masculine 61, feminine 55) provides a unique opportunity to investigate the syntactical environments in which derek occurs and their effect (if any) upon its gender. This investigation has yielded a significant result. The data from Bible (given in full in the text) support the establishment of a firm rule: In biblical Hebrew, derek governs either masculine or feminine agreements in independent clauses and in some dependent clauses, but governs only feminine agreements in relative clauses.
