So, I’ve started an e-mail list on my site. And, it seems to be going really well so far. I’ve gotten quite a number of sign-ups from people all around the world. I’ve put together what I think is a pretty cool free report for those who join entitled “Study the OT for Free.” It…

I know that I have written this in a couple of other places on the site, but I wanted to write a blog post just saying thanks to University of California Television and Villanova University for providing great video content on YouTube. I have put quite a number of their videos on the courses page…

It seems that a lot of you came to the site yesterday to see the video of Jon D. Leveson teaching about Abraham in Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. So, I figured you must all like Levenson. In that case, I have posted another video by Levenson today on The Aqedah, or The Binding of Isaac.…

Once again the University of California Television program has provided a helpful video for the study of matters related to the Old Testament/Hebrew Bible. Below is a link to a video they put together in which Jon D Levenson of Harvard University discusses Abraham in Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. It is often said that Abraham…

Recently, I made a blog post on Robert Alter’s translations, which are unique in their attempt to bring some issues in the Biblical Hebrew text into English. Today I found this video where you can learn about translation from Alter himself. The video is entitled Lost in Translation: The Challenge of Translating the Bible. And,…

I realize that I posted about Charles Grebe’s website AnimatedHebrew.com only the other day; however, I spent a bit more time over there yesterday. And, I must say that the Jonah Comic is absolutely phenomenal. There are not many Biblical Hebrew learning products that I get very excited about since most of them seem to…

I came across a blog post about my supervising professor Christo van der Merwe yesterday through my friend Karyn’s blog (which I mistakenly labeled as “new” in one of my previous posts). She linked into a Hebrew and Greek reader blog post entitled The Bruce Lee of Biblical Hebrew. Apparently, my supervising professor is like…

Up to this point, I have only included on this site courses on the Old Testament, Old Testament history, Old Testament manuscripts, etc. However, this morning I found a free video course on Biblical Hebrew. I have looked around a significant amount for a good free Biblical Hebrew course and this is the first one…

When it comes to Old Testament courses online, some readers may wish to study more specialized or advanced topics. However, many of the online courses that are available, particularly on this site, are directed toward more general learners. Yet there is a possible avenue for those that wish to study more advanced topics. The Society…
