Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A First Hebrew Reader
His book is designed for students who wish to learn in a short time enough Hebrew to enable them to read one of the simple books of the Hebrew Bible. The writer makes no attempt to give an accurate knowledge of the details of Hebrew Grammar. He has in view those who will have no tutor, and seeks to make them familiar from the beginning with reading Hebrew as it is in a book of the Bible. The illustrations are all taken from the Book of Jonah. Four or five months of regular study will enable the reader to master this First Hebrew Reader. He will then be able to read ?uently the Book of Jonah, and can proceed to the more systematic study of the language by using Professor A. B. Davidson's well known Hebrew Grammar. The writer desires to offer his thanks to Dr. James Kennedy of the New College, Edinburgh, who read the proofs and made several helpful suggestions.
