First Hebrew Primer

A 30-Week Hebrew Course Providing Understanding of Biblical Hebrew

The purpose of this class is to make reading and understanding Biblical (Classical) Hebrew a skill accessible to all.  This primer not only provides a thorough walkthrough of basic Hebrew grammatical concepts and vocabulary, but also aides the student in perfecting each chapter with maximum retention through easy to follow lessons.  Each student will gain the necessary tools to become confident in reading and more successfully translating Hebrew. This class is designed for the beginner to the intermediate student. All beginning students will be required to use the text Teach Yourself to Read Hebrew by EKS Publishing prior to the start of the class. This will assist the beginner in memorization of the Hebrew alephbet and obtaining basic reading skills, while minimizing the acclimation period due to learning a new character set. Beginners may check this out of our synagogue library as there will be copies reserved for your use. Beginners' classes will start 2 weeks prior to the main class.
