The Hebrew 2
Hub website was originally designed for a course I lectured in the spring of
2005 at St Mary’s College, the divinity school of the University of St
Andrews (St Andrews, Scotland). The site derives its name from the course
title, “Hebrew 2,” which was the second semester of biblical Hebrew designed
to extend students’ skills in reading the Hebrew Bible, including both prose
and poetry. This website has gone through a number of revisions as I taught
the course again in the spring of 2006 and then as I taught an introductory
Hebrew course in the summers of 2007 and 2008 at Friends University (Wichita,
Kansas). Originally, this website was hosted on St Andrews University’s website
via WebCT, but I have made it available here,
albeit in a somewhat modified form, so that these resources might be available
to a wider audience, to anyone interested in acquiring biblical Hebrew. Since
Hebrew 2 Hub was designed for second semester Hebrew, it is incomplete.
Nevertheless, there are a number of useful resources for those just beginning
to acquire Hebrew. While I am generally satisfied with most of the elements
of this website, I am particularly pleased with the Jonah page where a
variety of auditory, visual, and textual resources have been brought
together. If you have
any questions or feedback regarding this site, please feel free to email me
at jtedblakley@gmail.com. Sincerely, J. Ted Blakley Ph.D. Candidate at the University of St.

The Markan Disciples and the Narrative Logic of Mark 4:1–8:30” |
