Lecture 10: Biblical Hebrew Grammar I - Dr. Bill Barrick

[@kijihigh6826]

So much information is being given to these students in such a short time. Plus they have other courses to study. Wow! So nice to sit at home and relax, study at your own pace, and truly absorb God's Language into the heart. I truly hope that these students have passed and done well. Kudos to them!

Brilliant! This is the best Biblical Hebrew I’ve come across on KZbin. Thanks guys for making it available to the world. 😊

It would be great if the videos had a general overview of what will be covered in its description or title so that I can find exactly what I'm looking for or go back to a lesson without having too much trouble finding.

No matter how master one is given to be, pray for the Holy Spirit.

Subject of this lesson: Articles, Interrogative hey ה, Inseparable Prepositions

[@petrvaganov]

A good book with a similar approach: "A practical grammar for classical Hebrew" by Weingreen.

[@Pacmanite]

This lecture deals with Chapter 7, Prepositions. Now, when you do exercise 7, you get the exciting prospect of reading full Hebrew sentences for the first time! And here's what you should have been told before that exercise: in Hebrew, word order is Verb-Subject-Object. The first full sentence, question F)11, gives you a sentence which would seem to make sense with either noun as the subject or object. Bill hasn't taught his students any syntax yet, but he expects them to be able to reason that sentence out somehow. It is impossible to logically decide on the subject, unless you already know that Hebrew word order is naturally Verb-Subject-Object.

[@gda295]

he probably mentioned it earlier

[@adielwilson8749]

True it's impossible to know the difference without know word order first alot of verbs and nouns have similar constructs and word order is the tell tale difference between wether or not the word acts as a verb or a noun. This reason alone in my opinion makes modern Hebrew harder to read than ancient Hebrew even though they use infinite forms of words to compensate.

@@mr.m9302 Dude, you are awesome!

[@jahquanteerogers6903]

if syllabification is done left to right, then why is the last syllable considered the first?

[@katathoombs]

An answer for posterity: it's only first as one counts backwards. Ultima/last syllable is the last syllable, paenultima/second to last syllable is the second to last syllable, but they might be called (quite logically) "the first one" and "the second one" when one counts backwards. The reason for counting backwards from the end has to do with its relative ease compared to counting from the beginning - at this point of the course.

[@e.z.6916]

Modern Hebrew syntax is more often subject, verb, object.

[@gda295]

55' i wish to remember that rule on the chireq yod. btw gimmel seems nearly always to have a dagesh in it .

[@jahquanteerogers6903]

because its usually always pronounced with the hard sound instead of the soft "gh"
