As a noted Hebrew grammarian, his book <i>Mikhlol</i> (<style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1241449095">.mw-parser-output .script-hebrew,.mw-parser-output .script-Hebr{font-family:"Ezra SIL SR","Ezra SIL","SBL Hebrew","Taamey Frank CLM","SBL BibLit","Taamey Ashkenaz","Frank Ruehl CLM","Keter Aram Tsova","Taamey David CLM","Keter YG","Shofar","David CLM","Hadasim CLM","Simple CLM","Nachlieli",Cardo,Alef,"Noto Serif Hebrew","Noto Sans Hebrew","David Libre",David,"Times New Roman",Gisha,Arial,FreeSerif,FreeSans}</style><span class="script-hebrew" style="font-size: 110%;" dir="rtl">מכלול</span>‎) and his <a href="/wiki/Dictionary" title="Dictionary">dictionary</a> of the <a href="/wiki/Hebrew_language" title="Hebrew language">Hebrew language</a> called <i>Sefer HaShorashim</i> (<link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1241449095"><span class="script-hebrew" style="font-size: 110%;" dir="rtl">ספר השורשים</span>‎, "Book of Roots") draws heavily on the earlier works of <a href="/wiki/Judah_ben_David_Hayyuj" title="Judah ben David Hayyuj">Judah ben David Hayyuj</a> and <a href="/wiki/Jonah_ibn_Janah" title="Jonah ibn Janah">Jonah ibn Janah</a>, as well as from the work of his father. These two books were originally written as one, although over the years they have come to be printed separately. This book, while based on his predecessors, shows a significant amount of innovation, stakes out new territory in his scholarly fields, and from a methodological point of view is superior to what came before. For example, in the <i>Mikhlol,</i> Kimhi expounds on his predecessors' opinions in a clear, straightforward way with a comprehensive approach to the Hebrew structure. <i>Sefer Hashorashim</i> highlights his talent as a writer because of its logical organization, particularly the way he bases his definitions upon etymology and comparisons between languages. Another of Kimhi's works, "'Eṭ Sofer," (<link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1241449095"><span class="script-hebrew" style="font-size: 110%;" dir="rtl">עט סופר</span>‎) was a sort of abridged version of <i>Mikhlol</i> and acted as a manual for <a href="/wiki/Sofer" title="Sofer">Biblical scribes</a>. This was a necessary compilation of rules for the writing of Bible-rolls, Masoretic notes, and accents, due to widespread ignorance among the scribes of the 12th century.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Kimhi also delved into philosophy and the <a href="/wiki/Science" title="Science">sciences</a>, and was very much influenced by both <a href="/wiki/Abraham_ibn_Ezra" title="Abraham ibn Ezra">Abraham ibn Ezra</a> and <a href="/wiki/Maimonides" title="Maimonides">Maimonides</a>. In later life, he took part in the controversy surrounding the works of Maimonides and staunchly defended him.

His biblical work mirrors his grammarian work, and focuses on issues of language and form as well as upon content. </p><p>He explains words on the basis of their grammatical construction and their etymological development. His commentary also includes homiletic and philosophical material, <i><a href="/wiki/Niqqud" title="Niqqud">niqqud</a></i> (vocalization), rabbinic tradition of the reading, and literal meaning of the words.
