BIB 115 - Beginning Biblical Hebrew I

Credits 3
The first half of a one-year beginning biblical Hebrew language course using Communicative Language Teaching methodologies to provide the foundation for fluent reading needed for exegesis and translation. A core vocabulary base of 300-400 lexical items will be built, forming the foundation for internalizing grammar structures. Using Hebrew Bible narrative texts in combination with other written and oral content in simple biblical Hebrew, noun and verb morphology and syntax patterns for biblical Hebrew narrative are introduced and contextually reinforced.
