Another reason may be alluded to by the
prophet Zephaniah:
“For then I will restore to the peoples a pure
language, that they all may call on the name
of the LORD, to serve Him with one accord.”
- Zeph. 3:9 (NKJV)

Hebrew Basics
Session One 1. Our goal is to equip you with a basic knowledge of Hebrew
in order to enhance your study of the Scriptures.
2. You’ll get out of it what you put into it.
3. For now, we will focus on modern Hebrew.
4. This is what will be encountered in most all Hebrew literature you will study - at least in the beginning.
5. More specifically, we will focus on modern Sephardic Hebrew.
6. Later we will look at Hebrew script and paleo-Hebrew and other facets of the language.
7. But for now, these sessions will assume you know nothing or very little about Hebrew.

I. Nikud (Vowel Points)
1. The Hebrew alef-bet contains twenty-two consonants and no vowels.
2. Nikud or “vowel points” were developed to help those in the exile to properly read and sustain the Hebrew language.
3. The nikud also helps the beginner know what vowel sounds to attach to consonants.
4. Hebrew is read from right to left.
