Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Value of the Study of Hebrew for a Minister
In Germany, Hebrew is taught in the upper classes of the gymnasia, sothat when the scholar enters the university he has not to begin the alphabet, but all the preliminary work is left behind. In Scotland, the practice is spreading of demanding from students a considerable knowledge of He brew before they enter the theological classes. The General Theological Seminary of the Episcopalians in New York is the only one known to us in this country, where, according to their published circular, an acquaintance with the pri mary elements of this language is required of applicants for admission.
