This work is intended to serve as a user-friendly and up-to-date source of information on the morphology, syntax, semantics and pragmatics of Biblical Hebrew verbs, nouns and other word classes (prepositions, conjunctions, adverbs, modal words, negatives, focus particles, discourse markers, interrogatives and interjections). It also contains one of the most elaborate treatments of Biblical Hebrew word order yet published in a grammar. This reference grammar will be of service to students who have completed an introductory or intermediate course in Biblical Hebrew, and also to more advanced scholars seeking to take advantage of traditional and recent descriptions of the language that go beyond the basic morphology of Biblical Hebrew.

This is an excellent little handbook for students, and it would work well as a textbook for a Hebrew course, or a supplement to a textbook. It's easy to find what you're looking for, and it doesn't bog you down with a lot of unnecessary details. It's also very up to date and takes into consideration the latest research on the language.

This book was in great condition and arrived on time. It has greatly helped me with my studies of the Old Testament in Hebrew. I would recommend this book to any who have had at least one semester of Hebrew and want to continue with their studies.
