Integrated for use with today's bestselling biblical Hebrew grammar, it is an ideal resource for traditional students in need of additional instruction; for professors, who can now utilize precious classroom time for discussion and exercises - and have students watch lectures at home; and for self-learners and homeschoolers with an interest in learning Hebrew on their own.Each lesson is short and is taught by experienced teacher Miles V. Van Pelt using a logical and simple method of learning biblical Hebrew, an approach he's refined over more than 20 years of studying and instructing students in biblical languages. Focused on the structural pattern of biblical Hebrew instead of tedious memorization, each video session will give students in formal language classes and self-learners alike the basic understanding they need to begin studying the Hebrew Scriptures.Session Titles and - The Hebrew Alphabet (32 min)2 - Hebrew Vowels (19 min)3 - Syllabification (38 min)4 - Hebrew Nouns (37 min)5 - Definite Article and Conjunction Waw (24 min)6 - Hebrew Prepositions (24 min)7 - Hebrew Adjectives (20 min)8 - Hebrew Pronouns (21 min)9 - Hebrew Pronominal Suffixes (25 min)10 - Hebrew Construct Chain (28 min)11 - Hebrew Numbers (14 min)12 - Introduction to Hebrew Verbs (19 min)13 - Qal Perfect Strong Verbs (24 min)14 - Qal Perfect Weak Verbs (21 min)15 - Qal Imperfect Strong Verbs (13 min)16 - Qal Imperfect Weak Verbs (20 min)17 - Waw Consecutive (22 min)18 - Qal Imperative (19 min)19 - Pronominal Suffixes on Verbs (16 min)20 - Qal Infinitive Construct (24 min)21 - Qal Infinitive Absolute (11 min)22 - Qal Participle (25 min)23 - Sentence Syntax (25 min)24 - The Niphal Stem Strong Verbs (14 min)25 - The Niphal Stem Weak Verbs (13 min)26 - The Hiphil Stem Strong Verbs (12 min)27 - The Hiphil Stem Weak Verbs (11 min)28 - The Hophal Stem Strong Verbs (7 min)29 - The Hophal Stem Weak Verbs (7 min)30 - The Piel Stem Strong Verbs (14 min)31 - The Piel Stem Weak Verbs (11 min)32 - The Pual Stem Strong Verbs (6 min)33 - The Pual Stem Weak Verbs (8 min)34 - The Hithpael Stem Strong Verbs (16 min)35 - The Hithpael Stem Weak Verbs (7 min)36 - Introduction to the Hebrew Bible (18 min)

I used this book and had the pleasure of being taught by Dr. Pratico at GCTS. The diagnostic system is, despite some criticisms, the best way for first year students to master basic Biblical Hebrew. The primary strength of this book (and Dr. Pratico's overall pedagogy) is to give students exactly what they need to know when they need to know it. There is virtually no information on the historical development of the language. This is perfectly suited to the first year English-speaking student, who has enough trouble making his or her way through what looks like a bunch of dots and scratches on a page. Diachronic philology, though interesting for the intermediate and advanced student, is almost completely irrelevant and off-putting to most beginners like myself.A good example of the "need to know" philosophy of the book is that the book sometimes does not present all aspects of a particular point of grammar, simply because to do so would overwhelm students. When vowels are learned, no mention is made of _why_ they are called changeable long, unchangeable long, etc.; all the student need know is which is which. The significance of that distinction is raised in subsequent chapters. Also, it could be pointed out in early chapters that many substantives (e.g. cohen) are simply participial forms. But when I learned the word for priest in chapter 4 (?) that piece of information was totally useless and would only have served to aid in my forgetting of the vocabulary word.I highly recommend Basics of Biblical Hebrew and the accompanying workbook.
