HEB 207 I Intensive Summer Biblical Hebrew
Is offered as part of the Summer Ancient and Biblical Languages Institute, and is designed to provide an intensive study of biblical Hebrew. The course provides the equivalent of a two-semester sequence in elementary biblical Hebrew, including an introduction to all but the very rarest grammatical forms in the Old Testament/Hebrew Bible, and the acquisition of an 800-word vocabulary of the most common biblical Hebrew words. At the completion of the course, the student will be able to translate most prose sections of the Old Testament with the aid of a dictionary. This course may be taken only by permission of the department and requires a separate application to the Institute.
