However, you need to be able to read and write hebrew before you start. Its OK. It is not easy as one might suspect, but if you study it diligently, you will learn.
Hopefully, someone is working on BOOK TWO, let's go deeper into the study of the Hebrew prayer. It is moderately easy and comprehensible and with the deepest of one's heart desire we are studying the Hebrew Prayers. This book is very popular with the Hebrew students. Amazing how our classes have been looking for a book like this and finally the Third Edition was printed.
forms.Highly recommended for classroom use. I like that it has an answer key in the back, so you can check the exercise parts, and a glossery at the end with the sing, and plur. I am using this book in a classroom setting, so it makes it easier with a teachers instruction. I find it very benificial.
A wonderful resource, great material. After you have a cursory understanding of the Hebrew alphabet and language, this book takes the motivated student a step further in to the world of Hebrew prayer.
They don't call a language a "tongue" for nothing. If you do a search, you should be able to find a few of these.I also agree with the other reviewer that this book could be better if there were some cassette tapes or CD's to go with it. Part of learning a language is hearing a language spoken, as well as trying to speak it yourself. This is a good book to begin your study of Biblical/Poetic Hebrew. Thus, this book is easy to use for anyone who knows the Hebrew alphabet, and can pronounce Hebrew words, but doesn't know what those words mean. This book does not use cumbersome latin terminology for parts of speech and grammar, and this book does not assume any previous knowledge of Hebrew, with the exception of undestanding the Hebrew alphabet, pointed vowels, and their associated pronunciations. If you do not know the Hebrew alphabet with the associated vowels, then I recommend learning them from an online website that gives free tutorials and lessons in the Hebrew Alphabet.
