Hebrew Questions

I'm full of questions lately. I wanted to see what Bibliobloggers thought was the best Intro to Hebrew grammar that one could use outside of a classroom. There aren't any Hebrew classes here and my Hebrew absolutely stinks. Are there any books/programs out there that one could use to get them through 1st year Hebrew?

My favorite is definitely Kelley's Hebrew grammar. Here's the link

http://www.amazon.com/Biblical-Hebrew-Introductory-Page-Kelley/dp/0802805981/

The most popular in seminaries is probably Van Pratico, but this grammar is really great. There's also a key to it on amazon as well.

The standard is probably Kelley. It is pretty technical. If you want to learn Hebrew outside of the classroom, Pratico is probably best. I would not suggest getting the First Hebrew Primer. Kelley and Pratico are your best bets in my own opinion.

James D Martin: Davidson's Introductory Hebrew Grammar is highly recommended - it's clear and simple
