Intermediate Prayerbook/Biblical Hebrew 2B

This course is no longer offered.

The fourth semester of the introductory sequence of Biblical Hebrew grammar, this course covers the more complex features of the language, and introduces students to the process of translating and analyzing texts found in the Hebrew Bible. Our focus will be completing our text, Prayerbook Hebrew the Easy Way, but we will also translate brief biblical passages to develop reading and comprehension skills. This course will also benefit students seeking to brush up on established biblical grammar and reading skills in preparation for more advanced work.

Prerequisite: Lehrhaus Judaica’s Beginning Prayerbook/Biblical Hebrew 1A-1B and 2A, or equivalent
