Our Verdict
This Biblical Hebrew course by Jeff Benner offers a refreshing learning experience that differs from traditional courses. By integrating consonants, vowels, and vocabulary in the early stages, learners benefit from an engaging and comprehensive introduction to the language. However, rapid pacing in certain sections might pose challenges for beginners unfamiliar with the foundational elements of Hebrew. Though some minor concerns regarding progression persist, learners can expect a solid grounding in Biblical Hebrew that prepares them for more advanced studies.
What We Liked
- The course uses a unique approach of teaching a few Hebrew letters and vowels at a time, which has been effective in helping learners progress beyond previous attempts.
- Lessons are well-structured with intricate concepts introduced gradually, allowing beginners to grasp the 'why' of things without being overwhelmed.
- The course layout aids retention as it provides transcripts, bookmarking options, and short lessons suitable for learners at their own pace.
- The instructor's precise enunciation, clear voice, and use of Hebrew throughout the course enhance pronunciation skills.
Potential Drawbacks
- Some learners might find the pacing a bit fast, necessitating rewinding and pausing to catch up or practice.
- For some, the verb section and overall course progression may seem rushed, leaving gaps in understanding.
- Occasionally, learners might struggle with unfamiliarity of the Hebrew Alephbet and vowels; repetition could be required.
