How Biblical Languages Work : A Student's Guide to Learning Greek and Hebrew

A practical and easy to understand guide to learning both Hebrew and Greek. Ideal for Biblical language scholars.

The last chapter includes tips to help each reader learn in his own way. Written by two extremely well-qualified linguists. Uses helpful learning methods by moving from known (English) to unknown (biblical languages). Ideal companion to first-year grammars. Provides a key for getting the most out of both Hebrew and Greek
