The course specifically aims to:Teach the student basic Hebrew grammar Begin the process of building an entry-level biblical Hebrew vocabularyTeach the student to read and pronounce Hebrew from anywhere in the OTTranslate simple sentences Generally it will aim to: Help the student to have a better appreciation for and deeper interest in the Old Testament and the languages in which it was written Provide an atmosphere and opportunity in which the student may come to know God more deeply as a result of an increase in the study of His Word Help the student grow in spiritual maturation and reinforce the importance of biblical studies for that growth.Learn to utilize the study of God’s Word in Hebrew as a devotional tool. Class Procedure The goals of the class will be accomplished through lectures and class discussion, homework assignments, quizzes and exams as well as class devotion time. Class AttendanceBecause of the nature of learning a language, it is important for all students to be as consistent as possible to attend all classes. As an incentive to faithfulness, students with no absences will have the two lowest quiz scores dropped. Students with only one absence will have one quiz score dropped. Those with more than two absences will have no quiz scores dropped. This class convenes via Zoom Thursday evenings 6:00-8:00 PM (CDT). Sign-in begins at 5:45. The registrar will provide enrolled students with a link to access the class. 2. Quizzes/ExamsQuizzes will be administered at the beginning of each class after the devotional study. The quizzes will focus on the vocabulary at the end of each chapter of the textbook and will be comprehensive in nature unless stated otherwise. They will be graded together in class, will provide further opportunity for discussion, and will constitute 25% of the total grade for the session. On week eight, a mid-term will be given and after week 12, a final exam will be administered. The class period immediately prior to the exams will be utilized for in-class review, though the professor will give tips throughout the course regarding the quizzes and exams. NOTE: A QUIZ OVER THE HEBREW ALPHABET (consonants only) WILL BE GIVEN AT THE END OF CLASS ON DAY 1 (see below for textbook). The student must be able to write and identify each of the letters by name. Class Assignments Assignments will be given at the end of each class period and must be ready for submission by the beginning of class on the day they are due. Workbook exercises are graded on a pass/fail basis. Assignments completed satisfactorily will receive a check mark indicating credit. Those not completed or unsatisfactorily completed will be handed back to the student to complete and turn in the following class period. All assignments must be turned in to get credit for the course. Reading assignments will be graded based on percentage completed. The student will be asked to give account for the percentage of reading completed on the final exam (students are expected to read the entire textbook chapter that corresponds to the WB assignments). Grading Quizzes = 25%, homework (workbook assignments, textbook reading) = 15%, mid-term = 25%, final exam = 25%, class participation = 10%.IV. Required Textbooks ?Barrick, William D., and Irvin A.
