Hebrew III continues the study of Biblical Hebrew begun in Beyond the Aleph-Beit.  The course is grammar and reading focused with a goal of increasing competence in reading and understanding the Hebrew of the Tanakh and Siddur. We will continue to use The First Hebrew Primer (Simon, Reznikoff and Motzkin; 3rd Edition).

For those interested in joining the class without having taken Beyond the Aleph-Beit, you will need to be able to read Hebrew in block/square script (i.e., as it appears in printed form) and should have (or be able to acquire) a working understanding of the following: The Perfect and Imperfect tenses of the Qal binyan, the functions of the Hebrew adjective, the Construct State (or Smichut), the direct object in Hebrew, and possessive noun endings.
