About this title

Synopsis

Presented in user-friendly fashion, the Dictionary of Basic Biblical Hebrew is a learner’s tool for students of the Bible who want to delve more deeply into the meaning of Scripture in its original language. This Hebrew dictionary contains over 6,000 entries of the most common words in the Hebrew Bible, giving users all the vocabulary they need in order to read biblical prose. Instead of including obscure words that only occur once or twice, the vast majority of the entries in the Dictionary of Basic Biblical Hebrew occur at least six times in the Hebrew Bible. This Hebrew dictionary is thus a great resource for building vocabulary and is a perfect companion volume for courses that focus on the reading and exegesis of biblical prose. A concise tutorial, with clear grammatical and syntactical explanations, complements the Dictionary of Basic Biblical Hebrew.
