HEBR 1002 Basic Hebrew Language II

By utilizing texts that are integral to our daily routines, such as the Shmoneh Esrei (Amidah), we build a language curriculum that is not only practical but deeply meaningful. The Shmoneh Esrei serves as a rich foundation for vocabulary acquisition and grammar development. Each prayer encapsulates a myriad of words and grammatical structures that are relevant to both ancient and modern Hebrew usage. In this course, special emphasis will be given to translating what we know from traditional sources to modern Hebrew usage. By delving into these prayers, learners not only expand their linguistic proficiency but also deepen their understanding of Jewish concepts and values.
