Aleph-Bet Soup is a book written in English about Hebrew letters in the Bible. As ancient and mysterious as this foreign alphabet of antiquity may at first appear, it gave rise to a major portion of our more familiar modern English.

What is so special about Hebrew?

Hebrew was clearly the first language spoken on this earth between Adam and God, six thousand years ago. It was the original language of the Word of God in the Old Testament, and it is still the only language to have survived from the ancient world. Hebrew is the language of the people of the Book. Each new insight that we may encounter in the Hebrew letters will make us all just that much more "people of the Book."
