Cross-listed: Jewish Studies This introductory Hebrew course will cover the basics of Hebrew  language: reading, writing and speaking - assuming no previous  knowledge on the student’s part. Although the text used for the course  is explicitly a text for Modern Hebrew, the skills acquired on this  first-year level can be easily applied to the study of pre-modern  (e.g., biblical and rabbinic) Hebrew text.
