learner5 Stars Out Of 5Like the workbook presentation and exercisesOctober 7, 2011learnerThis review was written for Hebrew for the Rest of Us: Using Hebrew Tools Without Mastering Biblical Hebrew.I am taking a class - "Intro to Biblical Hebrew" and this is our text. I knew nothing about the language. We are having class 4 tomorrow and I am amazed at how much I have already "soaked up" through use of this text (and my instructor).

Joan4 Stars Out Of 5February 16, 2009JoanThis review was written for Hebrew for the Rest of Us: Using Hebrew Tools Without Mastering Biblical Hebrew.I loved Bill Mounce's "Greek for the Rest of Us". So, I had high hopes that "Hebrew for the Rest of Us" would be the equivalent. It is, however, it lacks one of the strengths that GRU had which is an accompanying cd rom of lectures. I'm hoping this will be offered in a future edition. All in all, "Hebrew for the Rest of Us" is invaluable because it is a simpler approach to understanding Biblical Hebrew than any other text I have found.

Matt2 Stars Out Of 5So many ABBREVIATIONSDecember 16, 2023MattThis review was written for Hebrew for the Rest of Us: Mastering Hebrew Tools to Study the Old Testament, Second Edition.Pros: there are helpful charts throughout,
Cons:
1) the Hebrew text is so tiny you almost need a magnifying glass to read the accent marks.
2) Fields was the wrong man to get to write an introductory book. He's too smart. The 'rest of us' do not have the grammatical experience that he does.
3) there are tons of English grammatical abbreviations used throughout the book. Flip to any page and you will find these interspersed throughout - basically turning an introductory Hebrew book into calculus. (There's a list of grammar abbreviations in the front that is TWO PAGES long, double columned...). Why not just write out the terms in the text or rework the text altogether to avoid so many Abr? (Abbreviations) ;)
