Description
It has been said that the teaching of biblical Hebrew as a "dead language" has killed it a second time. Shaking traditional views, this book sets the "sacred language"within the life and dynamics of Hebrew thinkingóa method that makes learning Hebrew easy, exciting, and theologically relevant. Doukhan uses both deductive and inductive methods in order to make his case. The book contains original mnemonic devices and tables, and a brief summary of Hebrew grammar and vocabulary at the end of the book.
