Biblical Hebrew on the web

There are other sites with information and help for beginning the study of biblical Hebrew. Some of the best include the following:

• Further animated tutorials can be found at the University of Texas/Austin Biblical Hebrew Language site, as well as a selection of tutorials.
• Yet more valuable learner resources at the excellent Animated Hebrew site.
• "Let's Study Hebrew" from Wisconsin Lutheran Seminary complete with PDFs and links to videos on Vimeo.
• Jeff Benner's "Ancient Hebrew Research Center" has some useful introductions to aspects of biblical Hebrew.

Hebrew Bible Online

• Mechon-Mamre offer a variety of Hebrew Bibles in different formats. (The link will take you directly to the index for the parallel Hebrew/English version.)
