This course is available through The Biblical Language Center.  See their web site for detailed descriptions of course material that they offer.

If you would like to join our Hebrew Study, contact me and I will order the course for you. You can order directly from Jerusalem, but I have been able to negotiate a better price if I order in bulk.

You will greatly benefit from this study and I plan to begin a section on this blog to help you in this holy endeavor.  The course is great and we are preparing to begin this week, but you can start at any time.

I am attaching a PDF document to this blog entry.  I am not certain that I have done this correctly, but I hope so. The note should motivate you to jump in and learn with our congregation.
