Some links for B-Hebrew members

Post by Kirk Lowery »

In this topic I list a few websites with helpful resources (mostly online) and further links for the participant in B-Hebrew. Many of these websites intend to be "indexes" to Hebrew studies on the web. This is only a sample of the wealth of material on the Internet.

iTanakh
iTanakh.org is "an effort to index internet resources that might be of use in the academic study and teaching of the Hebrew Bible. iTanakh is designed to help everyone from undergraduates to professors emeriti find useful sites on the web." The site indexes much more than sites directly relevant to the Hebrew Bible. It includes the "neighboring" fields of general Ancient Near Eastern studies and other ancient languages.

Old Testament Gateway
This site is "a comprehensive, annotated, academic directory of internet sites on the Old Testament."

DailyHebrew.com
This website provides "the reader a manageable daily Hebrew reading (4-8 verses) along with lexical and syntactical assistance." Very helpful for self-study and continuing education.

Resource Pages for Biblical Studies
While this website is primarily "intended as a resource for serious, scholarly studies of the early Christian writings and their social world", there are links to texts and other information of relevance to Dead Sea Scrolls and Second Temple studies.

Apparently, they are offline. The URL is correct. I'll remove the link and see if there is another similar site.

DailyHebrew.com went offline (about) a year ago. And that's too bad. It was a great resource when it was available.

Here is the audio Hebrew Bible, read aloud by Abraham Shmuelof:

Here are links for materials and lectures for first year elementary Biblical Hebrew in a classroom setting:

Videos: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qvh8yziV ... 285C853693

Grammar: http://drbarrick.org/files/studynotes/O ... r_2012.pdf

Workbook: http://drbarrick.org/files/studynotes/O ... k_Full.pdf

While somewhat off topic, my advice is that all online students should be proficient in downloading from youtube, ripping the audio and using media players like VLC and Maple which allow accelerated playback -- I normally listen to most podcasts, lectures and sermons at about 200% - 225% of the standard playback rate.
