Overview
This advanced textbook by two leading experts in Biblical Hebrew brings their innovative approach to its culmination. Building on their acclaimed Beginning Biblical Hebrew and Intermediate Biblical Hebrew, John A. Cook and Robert D. Holmstedt apply the latest pedagogical insights to the study of Biblical Hebrew, helping students gain mastery of the language and providing a resource for professors looking for modern linguistic analysis of Biblical Hebrew.
Studying the biblical text in its original languages is a perennial interest for serious students of the Bible. However, reading a text in an ancient language with deep sensitivity requires the ability to analyze and describe its linguistic features, master its vocabulary, and produce long stretches of text that is intelligible, grammatical, and smooth. This advanced grammar encourages the development of these skills and more. Each lesson guides students through a short biblical passage, training them to identify and explain every notable linguistic feature while also equipping them to render English text into readable Biblical Hebrew.
The material has been field tested by the authors, who not only teach Hebrew but are actively engaged in scholarly discussions about Hebrew language and instruction. A companion instructor's manual is forthcoming.
This volume completes Cook and Holmstedt's innovative set of resources for learning Biblical Hebrew. A set containing all three volumes--Beginning Biblical Hebrew, Intermediate Biblical Hebrew, and Advanced Biblical Hebrew--is also available.
