This is the first textbook written for the purpose of teaching
biblical Hebrew to college-level students who already know some
modern, Israeli Hebrew. Marc Brettler provides a clear,
comprehensive book with numerous well-constructed exercises to help
students either make the transition from modern Israeli Hebrew to
biblical Hebrew or deepen their understanding of biblical Hebrew.
The book is also ideal for individuals who might like to study
independently, and for serious Jewish adult-education programs.
Biblical Hebrew for Students of Modern Israeli Hebrew is unique in
its emphasis on phonology, based on the conviction that a strong
grounding in phonology makes it possible to learn biblical Hebrew
grammar in a much more systematic fashion. This method also allows
verbal conjugations to be taught much more quickly and
systematically. Although the text is not inductive, it uses
authentic biblical texts throughout to illustrate fundamental
points, and it contains many biblical texts in the exercises.
Students progressing through the book will quickly be encouraged by
a sense of accomplishment as they encounter and understand
well-known biblical passages.
