In 1969, while still a graduate student, Dr. Isbell wrote a series of forty lessons that eventually were published as Biblical Hebrew: A Beginner's Manuel. The work was published jointly with his then teacher, Dr. Harvey E. Finley. Now, Dr. Isbell has completed updated and revised that work, which has been out of print since 1982. This is in fact a totally different book, one more in tune with undergraduate or seminary students. It offers far more experience in the biblical text itself. Dr. Isbell wrote this book for students, specifically beginning students, not to discourage them at the outset. He follows "ten commandments for learning biblical hebrew: do not fall behind, do not ignore written examples, do not write interlinear English, read everything aloud, copy in your own Hebrew hand, find study partner)s), do not cram, do not skip lessons, thumb through your Hebrew Bible or familiar passages, and remember that you must do the learning. A CD-rom is also available with this work.Isbell, Charles David is the author of 'Introduction to Biblical Hebrew Teacher Manual', published 2002 under ISBN 9780971468399 and ISBN 0971468397.
