About this title

Synopsis

Learning Biblical Hebrew does not need to give you an ulcer! In fact, it can be both fun and formative. This textbook introduces an approach that will help you learn an ancient language and have fun doing it. Biblical Hebrew: An Interactive Approach will help you learn the original language of the Old Testament with your whole person: body, mind, and spirit. You will...

+ Memorize and perform playful dialogues based on the book of Jonah in Hebrew;

+ Learn several passages from the Hebrew Bible by heart;

+ Encounter the biblical texts and the grammar through interactive drills and exercises;

+ Discover the deep connections between the grammar of Hebrew and the theology of the Hebrew Bible;

+ Involve your whole body in the learning process;

+ Learn how to pronounce all the letters and vowels, and how to read Hebrew.

The following pages will invite you on a journey into the strange new world of the Old Testament Scriptures. You are likely to discover along the way that the stories you have probably heard and read many times (Jonah, Genesis 1, The Binding of Isaac in Genesis 22) are more profound than you ever imagined they could be. Learning Biblical Hebrew will change the way you read the Bible forever, and Biblical Hebrew: An Interactive Approach will help you enjoy the process, and remember what you learned for years to come.
