Learn Biblical Hebrew — Online Courses

Biblical Hebrew is part of the Semitic language family, which also includes Arabic and Maltese. As one of the most important and influential books in human history, the Hebrew Bible can best be understood and appreciated when read in its original Hebrew text.

Beginner to advanced level courses

Our Biblical Hebrew courses range from beginner to advanced levels. As a beginner, we will introduce you to the grammar of this language and give you the skills for reading, translating, and analysing the Bible text.

If you already know a bit of Biblical Hebrew, choose an advanced course to sharpen your skills and gain a deeper understanding of the Hebrew Bible by reading it in its original text.
