A. The shape of the letters mostly, what is called ancient Pheonecian today is actually the older form of Hebrew. Hebrew is a very complex and exacting language that has many features that other modern languages do not have, it is designed in a way that you can very deeply study the principals that are woven into each letter in a word. How it is spoken and how it functions has not been compromised in a way that has led to any confusion about how to read it or the meanings of it in written texts. The Modern letters are slightly harder to remember, but that is only an opinion.

Can modern Israelis read/understand Biblical Hebrew like the type the Dead Sea Scrolls are written in?
Q. Modern day Britons and Americans can understand "Shakespearian" and King James English, even though it is almost completely different. But I'm wondering if Biblical Hebrew to modern Israelis is more like Old English to us English speakers, where it is almost a completely foreign language.

What's the difference between Modern and Biblical Hebrew?
Q. I know Modern Hebrew was reconstructed on the basis of Biblical Hebrew, but what, really, is the difference between the two?
Asked by Ateret bat Ami - Sun May 30 20:08:29 2010 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Biblical Hebrew and modern Hebrew differ with respect to grammar, vocabulary, and phonology. Although Modern and Biblical Hebrew's grammatical rules often differ, Biblical Hebrew is sometimes used in Modern Hebrew literature, much as archaic and Biblical constructions are used in Modern English literature. This is according to wikipedia.

A. Not too sure what you asking. If you mean hpw many words differ in Biblical Hebrew to Modern Hebrew in the Torah, the answer is actually very few. Around 95% of the languagein the Torah is escatly the same as in Modern Hebrew where it differs is generally: 1) Identifying plants and animals. Some names and species that are referred to are not clearly distinguishable 2) Concatenations- the Torah uses abbreviations and concatenations that are not used in modern Hebrew 3) Root drift- The Torah uses two and three letter roots for words and in a few exceptional cases one letter! In modern hebrew words have three letter roots with a very few two letter roots. Thus you find some differences where the base root word has shifted

Asked by Richard - Sun Jul 6 00:52:14 2008 - - 1 Answers - 1 Comments

A. Biblical Hebrew is a written literary language, with its own poetic and metric laws. It is as different from spoken Hebrew as Shakespeare's language from modern everyday prose English. Some major differences: 1. In the conjugation of verbs, the Bible often uses specific forms of the past, preceded by a Vav, to mean future events, and conversely, future forms to mean past events. For instance, the Biblical form "wayehi" means literally "and it will be", but you must understand it as "and it came to pass". Biblical "wehaya" means literally "and it was", but has to be understood as "and it will come to pass". 2. Modern Hebrew uses more analytical form, whereas Biblical Hebrew is more synthetic. You'd say in Modern Hebrew "bayt shelkha", [cont.]

Asked by Rambo - Sat Jun 10 17:24:37 2006 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments

A. There are many differences: Chronologically- Biblical Hebrew is obviously the language of most of the Hebrew Bible (Christian Old Testament), which most scholars believe was written between about 1000 BCE (Some of the Psalms) and the 2nd century BCE (the book of Daniel, written mostly in Aramaic), with the bulk of the work having been written around the time of the exile (6th century BCE). This applies only to the consonants of the text-the vowels were not added until the Middle Ages starting about the 8th century CE. Modern Hebrew was revived in the late 19th century in Palestine, and is the language spoken in modern day Israel. Phonologically- Although the exact pronunciation of Biblical Hebrew is uncertain (We don't have the tapes), it… [cont.]

Asked by pinkstar95 - Mon May 26 09:28:28 2008 - - 5 Answers - 0 Comments

A. There are quite a few differences, both in grammar and in vocabulary. For example, the Torah frequently uses a construction "and + present tense" to signify the past tense. Many chapters begin "Vay'dabeir Adonai el-Moshe leimor" - "And God spoke to Moses, saying..." In this phrase, the first word "Vay'daber" literally means "And he speaks", but because of this grammatical rule, it is read as "He spoke". This rule doesn't exist in modern Hebrew, which uses a normal past tense. Of course, modern Hebrew has very many new words to describe things only invented recently, like telephones and computers.

A. Right across the Strait of Gibraltar from Morocco to Spain the name came along with the peoples. Spain was the first place where Hebrew and Arabic peoples lived together in harmony. I just saw this on PBS this week. Ferdinand and Isabella were the first to make Spain a purely Christian country, PBS used the point to show that Christians, Jews, and Muslims can live together and have in the past. The name Perez was already set before the inquisition and before Ferdinand and Isabella.

Asked by Gareth - Sat Jan 26 10:51:12 2008 - - 5 Answers - 1 Comments

A. Yes, but learn from a reputable source! There is no point trying to reproduce ancient pronunciation, since there is no one alive who can verify it. Therefore, it makes sense to use the modern Hebrew pronunciation, which works just fine with biblical Hebrew. For myself, I found it easier to take a class in modern Hebrew first, and then take biblical Hebrew from there. (Modern Hebrew classes can often be found at Jewish Community Centers for a modest fee.)

A. Learning is improved by using different your senses. One aid in memory is to associate each letter with a picture. Drawing the letters and pictures uses touch. The pictures are visual and this may improved by using different colours, which uses your eyes. Also vocalise the letters as this uses your ears.

A. Koine Greek was difficult enough; but it still, structurally, has a lot in common with European languages like English, German and Italian. I found Hebrew to be one of the most difficult things I have ever studied. Every word has a root of three consonants. Sometimes prefixes and suffixes change the first and last letters, and,occasionally, the middle letter, so you wind up with a word in front of you that has little or no resemblance to the original root. Also there are no vowels in Hebrew. You have to supply them mentally from the context. And, finally, Hebrew reads from right to left, rather than left to right as we are accustomed.to read. I found a knowledge of these languages does increase ones understanding of the bible. But when it… [cont.]

A. Biblical Hebrew did not survive the Babylonian Exile--it went extinct as a living language. From 500 BCE until 1948 CE it was only used as a language of religious texts. The OT texts were preserved (that's what you find in Biblia Hebraica Stuttgartensia) and the knowledge of how to read them was preserved. There were also other documents written in Hebrew relating to the Jewish faith. But it was much like Latin--no one spoke it, but many learned how to read and write it. And as a correction, Aramaic was NOT a "blend of Greek and Hebrew". Aramaic was a separate language related to Hebrew, but not its descendant. It was a cousin to Hebrew. Its descendants are still spoken today in Iraq and parts of Syria and Turkey. The modern… [cont.]

Asked by Sara Swati - Thu May 28 12:22:29 2009 - - 8 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Modern Hebrew is much closer to its Biblical roots than, say Modern Greek is to Biblical Greek. This is because while Greek remained a living tongue, and thus continued to evolve during the two centuries since the writing of the New Testament, Hebrew ceased to be a common spoken language around the 2nd century AD (after the final overthrow of the Palestinian Jews by the Romans). From that time until the late 19th century, Hebrew remained a language of liturgy, prayer, and scholarship only, much the same way that Latin remained in used in the Catholic church. Since the use of the language was so structured and restricted, it did not evolve. Modern Hebrew came into use with the rise of the Zionist movement, and a desire for the Jews of… [cont.]
