A Practical Grammar for Classical Hebrew, 2nd Edition (English and Hebrew Edition)

Review"With all the Hebrew grammars out there this one is still the essential. Not only is it a fine teaching tool, it is the best reference grammar for both the student and minister who employs Hebrew studies in his biblical considerations."--Randall Pannell, Regent University"At our seminary, we have been constantly using this excellent textbook."--Paul Y. Tashiro, Wesley Biblical Seminary"Best explanations on the market for Biblical grammar. Realistic amount of difficulty of exercises."--Joseph Knight, University of North Carolina-Asheville"The most distinguished and excellent of the traditional introductions to classical Hebrew. Based on sound linguistic and didactic principle, it will be the most important of the grammars of its kind for many years to come."--Fred Horton, Wake Forest University"The standard by which all other Hebrew texts are judged."--Joel Heck, Concordia College of WisconsinProduct DescriptionThe aim of this book is to render the teaching and study of Classical Hebrew simple and interesting. While there are a number of Hebrew grammars in English used by teachers and students, my experience in teaching the language has made it clear to me that a more simple, direct, and reasonable system could be devised than is at present available. From conversations with other teachers of Hebrew it has become evident to me that there was a real need for a grammar which would make the study of the language more attractive. It was to satisfy this need that I undertook to prepare a practical grammar.About the AuthorJacob Weingreen was an Irish professor of Hebrew in Trinity College, Dublin - School of Religion and Theology between 1939 and 1979.
