Dear Keith and all Doves,

Yes By all means learn Hebrew!!

A language after God’s own heart!

Reasons:

1. Probably the language that God spoke to Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden (heaven)

2. The language of Noah and His sons.

3. “Galilean” was a local Hebrew dialect spoken by Yeshua and His Disciples.

( There are three major existing dialects of Hebrew spoken today: the Sephardic, the Ashkenazi, and the Yemenite.)

The Sephardic dialect is the most common and is the dialect spoken in modern Israel today.

4. God spoke to the prophets in Hebrew.

5. It is the original language of the bible and the one that God ordained and chose to be the “Master Copy”,in that all the other languages

of the world could reproduce and have the best translation of what God was saying to them for their “roadmap of life to Him”

6. Most of the world’s languages have Hebrew words incorporated into their language

7. Probably the language of heaven (Gan Eden)

8. All Indo-European languages are based on Hebrew

9. It is the most ancient of Languages; yet is the world’s “youngest”.

10 The only dead ancient language to be revived and born again; ever, in human history.

11. A modern language so complex, yet still so simple, that a modern Israeli school child can read the ancient biblical Hebrew text and understand it.

Some of the best books on Hebrew Language learning:

Hebrew at your Ease, by Eliezer Tirkel (one of the best self instructing presentations on learning Hebrew)

He taught Hebrew for more than forty years, and this book is his instructions and classroom teachings.

How the Hebrew Language Grew, Edward Horowitz (out of Print)

Berlitz Hebrew for Travelers by Berlitz

Hebrew in Three months, Hugo

Hebrew for Everyone ,by Israel Palchan (one of the best) get the 1992 ed., if you can.

The book was reprinted in 2008 as Hebrew International Phrasebook but,it is not as good, or as readable as the original 1992 edition.

Everybody knows Hebrew, Israel Bayer (out of print)

If you are interested in studying Biblical Hebrew than:

Learn Biblical Hebrew ,John Dobson

Biblical Hebrew: An introductory Textbook, Nancy deClaisse

By the way, Haaretz newspaper and its website is left wing, anti-biblical, anti-God, humanistic and “Telavivi” (give it all away for peace)

A better website for believers would be: Israelnationalnews.com this is “arutz7” which is right wing, biblically based, God believing, and “Yerusalmi”( backs the settlements in the Yesha, and is for not giving up the land)

Blessings to all,

In Yeshua’s love,

David Zion
