Synopsis

You want to unlock Bible meaning with Biblical Hebrew and use the original language, Biblical Hebrew, right?

But what you don't know about Biblical Hebrew will hurt you. So before undertaking the arduous adventure of plunging headfirst into a strange language, let's educate ourselves.

Are you overwhelmed by the prospect of learning two new alphabets (written and printed)? Are you ready to read at less than a snail's pace? Learning binyanim (I know you don't know what this is, that's the point :)), conjugations, grammar, rules, and especially their exceptions?!!

Then you've come to the right space.

Are you learning Biblical Hebrew because you think you'll get closer to the original language of the Bible and hence be able to understand it better? You're right on one account but wrong on another. Learning a foreign language is difficult, very difficult. I've been there, as have millions. Unless you're immersed in the language, it's practically impossible, and even then, it will never be your native language unless you're some genius. Besides, Biblical Hebrews scholars are not even in agreement about the meaning of the language and, therefore, the Bible.

The fact is, you want to learn about the Bible. Biblical Hebrew is the means to the end.

You've never been told about Biblical Hebrew and the Bible. So first, learn the problems and then find the appropriate solutions.

Here are seven, yes, seven identifiable problems present with translating Biblical Hebrew in the Bible. You must know them before you put on your new language suit and blast off on your financially demanding and ambitious but exhausting struggle to focus on the means rather than the end.

1. Multiple native language words for one Biblical Hebrew word
2. Contradictory meanings for the same Biblical Hebrew word
3. Concrete and abstract meanings for the same Biblical Hebrew word
4. Literal and figurative meanings for the same Biblical Hebrew word
5. Names have meaning
6. Biblical Hebrew word roots
7. Biblical Hebrew words tell stories.

7 Keys to master Biblical Hebrew will cut the Gordian knot of Biblical Hebrew and take you straight to the God-intended original meaning of Scripture. It will save you lots of money and even more time. This book and method are a must-read for anyone serious about Bible study. Minimize your investment in Biblical Hebrew and maximize your return on understanding God's Word.
