Syntactic Eloquence of Passive Structures in the holy Quran

Syntactic structures are among of the phenomenal features of the holy Quran. In these structures, which enjoy a particular geometric order, the words are coherently linked together and help the intended meanings to be conveyed in a way that no words can be added or deleted to the original text. Appropriacy and contextuality which are among the principles of rhetoric also enjoy a special place in the holy Quran. Any changes in Quranic structures might be interrelated with the changes in appropriacy and contextuality. The present article was an attempt to have a linguistic, rhetorical and aesthetic analysis of such passive structures. Simplification, punctuation, poetic necessities, unawareness of the subject, fear of mentioning the subject, avoidance in mentioning the subject, the greatness of the subject, degrading the subject and paying no attention to the subject are among the rhetorical reasons behind using passive structures in Arabic.
