Course Description

Overview

Everything you need to learn Hebrew from the alphabet to translating the Bible on your own.

What you'll learn:
  • Identify the Hebrew alphabet and vowels and pronounce them.
  • Read the text of the Hebrew Bible with some basic comprehension.
  • Understand the fundamentals of the Hebrew language.
  • Be able to look up any word in the Hebrew Bible and determine its meaning.

A translation of the Bible is a translator's "interpretation" of the text. The translator's doctrines and beliefs will often influence how the text will be translated and anyone using his translation is seeing it through his eyes rather than through the eyes of the original authors. Only by studying the original language of the Bible can one see the text in its original state.

Learning the Hebrew language can be both fun and exciting. Upon completing this course you will be reading Hebrew, building a Hebrew vocabulary and even begin translating Biblical passages for yourself.
