      Charts of Biblical Hebrew - Miles V. Van Pelt

      Preface

      The charts in this ebook were developed over the course of several years in the context of classroom instruction. It may be observed that the production of these charts stemmed from one author’s desire to simplify grammatical presentation as much as possible and the other author’s desire to be as thorough as possible in the presentation of the basics of biblical Hebrew. Hopefully, these two approaches will have produced a tool that will be helpful for both students and instructors.

      For beginning students, these charts will provide clear and concise summaries of important grammar concepts. Additionally, the use of color in these summaries and in the presentation of paradigms will emphasize grammar basics and important features of morphology. These charts have also been designed to assist those who teach Hebrew. They may be printed and used as overheads in the classroom or they may be imported into electronic presentation applications such as Microsoft’s PowerPoint to assist in classroom lectures and discussion. They may not, of course, be duplicated and handed out to the students. But please note that those who purchase the ebook have permission to print out any charts for personal use.

      The charts in this text, in significant measure, derive from our Basics of Biblical Hebrew Grammar (Zondervan, 2001). The corresponding section number in the grammar book is identified in the lower left corner of each chart (e.g., BBH 1.1; BBH 1.4). Their organization and presentation in this resource, however, are designed to complement the many beginning Hebrew grammars that are now available. The 459 charts in this ebook are arranged, in general, by the grammatical categories listed in the table of contents. The selected charts that appear in the printed version are marked in this eBook version with a small book icon ( ) at the bottom center of each chart. The number following the icon indicates the page number for that chart in the printed book.

      Finally, we wish to express our gratitude to Zondervan for their support in the publication of this language resource. Zondervan’s visionary commitment to providing educational resources for the study of biblical languages is commendable. Special thanks are due to Verlyn Verbrugge, Jack Kragt, and Jody DeNeef. We also thank Lee Fields, Jonathan Kline, and John Beckman for their expert assistance with this project.

      This text is dedicated to those students who submit themselves to the rigors of studying biblical Hebrew recognizing the authority, the relevancy, and the sufficiency of Scripture for life and ministry.

      Five Final Forms

      Six consonants have two possible pronunciations and are known as b e g a dk e ph a t consonants. To distinguish between the two pronunciations, a dot called Daghesh Lene is inserted into the consonant. The presence of Daghesh Lene indicates a hard pronunciation and its absence denotes a soft pronunciation.
