Hinneh, Biblical Hebrew the Practical Way, is a text and workbook for both the academic and non academic classroom, as well as for the independent learner.

Hinneh offers an innovative curriculum for the introduction of Biblical Hebrew. It balances two major demands of an introductory language program: the reflection of the most frequently occurring lexical and grammatical examples, and the sequencing of the material in a way that will allow for easier teaching and learning. Attention is given to the presentation of the broad picture of how Biblical Hebrew behaves, as well as to imparting the most efficient and effective skills and tools which will allow students to access straight-forward Biblical texts early on.

Hinneh features many original Biblical passages given as examples for any subject taught, accompanied by English translations drawn from various sources. Hinneh offers ample exercises with answers for self-check.

Volume I presents those basic grammatical subjects which are not conditioned by the verb, as well as the prefix and suffix verb forms of the qal stem in all root

Volume II presents the infinitives, imperative and participles of the qal stem and proceeds to introduce the remaining verb stems in all their forms and root groups.

The Tool Box includes frequently occurring Biblical vocabulary lists (nouns, prepositions, verbs) complete with pronominal suffixes, as well as detailed verb paradigms, parsing charts (noun, preposition, verb) and more.

Students and instructors will find Hinneh to be an excellent choice for the introductory level. Students who complete Hinneh will have much of the Biblical text, prose and poetry, opened up to them.
