After completing this course, students will be able to describe selected
features of the phonology, morphology and syntactic structure of Biblical
Hebrew. They will be able to recognize and describe some common morphological
and syntactic forms in Biblical Hebrew, and to readily access information
on less-common forms. They will be able to recognize and explain the primary
range of meaning of the three hundred most frequently used words (i.e.
300 dictionary entry forms) in the Hebrew Bible. They will also be able
to use reference helps referring to the Hebrew text, such as Hebrew lexicons
and commentaries.
