Preface
These grammar notes and exercises were developed by Phil King, October 2010, with some
corrections made in October 2012. Ruth Mathys wrote the sections on imperatives and
infinitive constructs. Further corrections from Lydia van den Berg were made in 2014, and
Michel Pauw added the section on the qamets qatan and improved the layout. Many thanks to
everyone who contributed to this coursebook.
The workbook assumes that participants have completed Randy Buth’s initial course, Living
Biblical Hebrew volume 1, are already very familiar with the Elijah stories from 1 Kings 17-
19, are good readers of Biblical Hebrew, but do not have much background in linguistic
terminology. The aim of the course is to bridge from an intuitive grammatical understanding
of Hebrew texts to a knowledge of the linguistic terminology usually used to describe Hebrew
verbs, which will enable participants to use other Hebrew resources as they continue to study
on their own. The grammar is also designed as one component alongside a study of the book
of Ruth, so that as materials are covered in the grammar the features discussed can be found
in the Ruth text.
If you are editing and reusing this text, make sure the verb tables at the back print with the
first page of tables on an even page. These verb tables are based on those in Pratico and van
Pelt (2007).
