Who is this course for?
This course is for adult Bible enthusiasts who have little to no Hebrew experience and want a guided, beginner-friendly path into learning the Hebrew language.
It is ideal for:
-
Bible Believers
— adults who want to deepen their study of Scripture. -
Study Leaders
— those who guide Bible discussions, groups, or lessons. -
Homeschool Educators
— teachers who want to introduce Hebrew foundations at home. -
Lifelong Learners
— curious adults interested in the Hebrew language.
You may have wanted to learn Hebrew for years, but felt overwhelmed by unfamiliar letters, pronunciation, and where to begin. This course gives you a live, structured, step-by-step introduction so you are not trying to figure it out alone.
Why Hebrew Matters for Bible Believers
For Bible believers, studying Hebrew provides a deeper connection to the language in which much of Scripture was originally written. While translations are valuable, learning Hebrew allows students to better appreciate the nuances, wordplays, cultural context, and richness of the biblical text. Understanding Hebrew can enrich personal study, strengthen biblical literacy, and offer fresh insights into passages that may not be fully conveyed through translation alone.
Here's the plan:
Length: 8 weeks
Format: Live Zoom sessions
Days: Mondays and Wednesdays
Time: 6:00 PM CST
Start date: Mon., June 15, 2026
Class size: Max 5 adult learners
Replays: Not recorded; live attendance required
Homework: Progress Checks
Community: Private discussion group
Certificate: No certificate issued
Here's the goal:
By the end of the course, students will:
-Recognize and pronounce Hebrew letters
-Understand the AlefBet and basic sounds
-Practice reading Hebrew from right to left
-Identify beginner Hebrew words and patterns
-Build confidence practicing both Biblical and Modern Hebrew
Here's the benefit:
Because this course is limited to only 5 adult learners, students receive a more personal, guided learning experience than they would in a large online class or self-paced course.
You will have time to ask questions, practice pronunciation, and receive support as you build your Hebrew foundation.
Meet Your Hebrew Tutor
Shalom Aleichem! Shemi Yoel Ben Yisrael.
(Peace be upon you! My name is Yoel Ben Yisrael.)
I have been studying Hebrew since 2013. My foundation in the language was established through informal instruction under Yahoyakiyn Mareh Yishra'el, a Hebraist and linguist with more than 38 years of experience.
Building on that foundation, I further developed my Hebrew proficiency through autodidactic immersive, self-directed study. This has included listening to Hebrew media, studying Biblical Hebrew grammar books, practicing Hebrew orthography, and engaging in spoken Hebrew.
My passion for the Hebrew language continues to inspire my learning and teaching. I am grateful for the opportunity to share that passion with others and help students grow in their understanding of Hebrew.
Ultimately, King Yah galvanizes me to continue in my love for the Hebrew language.
This is all for His glorification!
