The Book of Chronicles: A Hebrew Reader
Libro 22 en Hebrew Bible Readers
This is a Hebrew reader for The Book of Chronicles. The Book of Chronicles (1-2 Chronicles) was originally transmitted as a single book before being divided. Its rewriting of the books of Samuel and Kings is fascinating to study. The additions around the temple and omissions of David and Bathsheba are theologically motivated. It is designed as a useful cost-efficient tool for two groups of people. First, for students learning Biblical Hebrew after a year’s worth of study this book and its series provide the material to grow in reading ability from the primary texts. Second, this book is designed for pastors, rabbis, scholars, and curious lay people looking to refresh their Hebrew, or use them in preparation for their work of study, preaching, and teaching.
The book immerses the reader in the biblical texts in order to build confidence reading Biblical Hebrew as quickly as possible. To achieve this, all uncommon words that occur 80 times or fewer in the Bible are glossed as footnotes. This enables the reader to continue reading every passage unhindered. Therefore, the book complements traditional language grammars and is especially ideal for beginner and intermediate students learning to read Biblical Hebrew. However, even advanced readers will appreciate the glossing of the rare words, since it saves time reading the text.
Other features include:
- Biblical maps in Hebrew
- Glossary of all the words not glossed below the text
- Formatted poetry
- Qere / Ketivs marked in the margins
- Tables of Masoretic accents
- Wide margins
