prayerbook hebrew the easy way

I am using this book in a classroom setting, so it makes it easier with a teachers instruction. I find it very benificial. I like that it has an answer key in the back, so you can check the exercise parts, and a glossery at the end with the sing, and plur. forms. Highly recommended for classroom use.

great for getting started

After you have a cursory understanding of the Hebrew alphabet and language, this book takes the motivated student a step further in to the world of Hebrew prayer. A wonderful resource, great material.

Fear-free!

As a child, I tried to learn and it didn't stay with me. What did stay was a fear that understanding prayerbook Hebrew was something I couldn't do. Well, judging by the excellent reviews, I bought this book. And lesson one made me sigh with relief. I *can* learn this!Please note that you need to know the Hebrew alphabet but then you can move right along.

Very Easy-to-Learn Hebrew Manual

This book does not require any complicated grammatical prerequisites. You don't have to have headache to cram up the declension and the conjugation of the nouns and verbs. If you just follow the lessons, you will soon be accustomed to the practical Hebrew liturgy. This is a well designed excellent manual for learning Hebrew for the beginners.

Outstanding introduction to prayerbook hebrew.

This book is highly recommended for anyone who wishes to gain greater understanding of the Hebrew Prayerbook. This book only assumes that one can pronounce the hebrew letters and all vocabulary is built up step by step. One of the interesting features of this book is the use of actual prayers presented phrase by phrase so a complete understanding of Adon Olam, Ein Kelohanu, Shema, and the Aleinu is possible. This book is for BEGINNERS and is a very useful introduction to Biblical Hebrew.
