Lectures are based on M. Mikulicova's Basics of Old Testament Hebrew (according to the second edited edition of 2009). In the winter semester, we cover lessons 1-10 (nouns, adjectives, pronouns, numerals). We aim to acquire basic knowledge of the main grammatical phenomena so that we can read simpler biblical texts as soon as possible. Part of the course will be reading and interpretation of selected passages from Old Testament books.

Ability to read, analyze, and translate sentences from M. Mikulicova's book, knowledge of vocabulary (esp. names in the book). An indispensible part of classification is the submitting of home assignments. It is tested both by a written test of grammar and vocabulary, and by oral translation and analysis of the texts from lessons 1-10.
