I'm amazed how well I can follow the conjugated verbs with no effort, though I haven't bothered to memorize the conjugations yet. Such a great testament to the effectiveness of your presentation and of of the method itself. Yad tovah! 👍 😃
I started watching these videos a few weeks ago, and I cannot stop! I studied Hebrew 30 years ago but had forgotten almost everything. This time it is so much fun! I am learning without making an effort. I do not try to memorize, I do not even do the review lessons, I do not try to understand everything: but I am just able to follow more and more. Thank you for making these videos. I am so impressed with the quality of these lessons - I cannot imagine how much work must have gone into designing them! It is so great how you incorporate reading from the Bible in these lessons. It gives a great sense of achievement that we are already able to read directly from the Bible! And I love how you give us time to understand by repeating and repeating again, and how you explain irregularities and new words. I love the silly jokes and intermezzo's with Avram - I have began to look forward to them :-). They provide some good comic relief in between. So, well done, well done, and keep going!
Ja nie uczyłem się wcześniej hebrajskiego, ale podpisuję się pod wszystkimi Twoimi pochwałami dla Beth i Avrama. Natomiast zazdroszczę Ci, że jesteś w tej lekcji już po kilku tygodniach. Ja dotarłem tutaj po 4 miesiącach 😀Ale nauka z Beth jest wielką przyjemnością 💙
Great job, again! I have to watch the episodes a few times till they sink in. If they were boring, I'd be snoring, but they are so well done, it's easy to be motivated. Thanks!
I find myself having to use discipline to not watch the new videos or just “ binge watch “ everything I can! I know if I rush to far ahead, I’ll get confused and develop a mind block to effectively learning something new…but this is addictive in טוב מאוד.
I've really enjoyed all of your videos, but this was the best yet! Your use of humour, spaced repetition, and the biblical text is just wonderful - and so effective for learning. Thank you so much for all your effort in producing such excellent videos, and for providing them free for the global church. Yad tovah from Malaysia.
Hi Andrew and Beth - just watched the Q & A recorded on Sunday. Sorry I couldn't be there in person. You are doing great work. I appreciate it. Thank-you. Mark 10:27 “Jesus looked at them and said, ‘With man this is impossible, but not with God; all things are possible with God.’”
In the review of "take", for the animals you didn't use 'et' but for the people you did. A lesson on when to use 'et' would be good. Thanks for the quality videos.
Hi Dave, I don't know if you've seen the grammar summary PDFs we're producing in Spanish and English. We have a discussion of 'et' in the one linked in the description of lesson 6. As we have time, we'll continue to produce these summaries to help people understand more details about the grammar in each video.
The last sentence: "ve khol yesh lo natan yado", does this mean something like "and all that he (Potiphar) had he gave into his (Joseph's) hand"' (ie he put Joseph in charge of everything/all his affairs?)
Yes, it's fine (in fact usually better) to just say "shama'nu." In Biblical Hebrew, including the subject pronoun with a verb which is already marked for the subject gives extra emphasis to the subject. Occasionally in the videos I include the pronoun for teaching purposes, to make sure viewers are correctly picking up on the marking of the verb, but saying "anahnu shama'nu" is more like saying "WE hear" with extra emphasis. Unless you want to emphasize the subject, just saying "shama'nu" is more correct.
Hi Mike, Command/imperative verbs have different forms depending on whether you're talking to a man or woman or a group of men or a group of women. In the video I use the masc. sg. form "ten" when talking to Avram, and Avram uses the fem. sg. form "t'ni" when talking to me. The feminine forms end with yod.
Can אבן be used as a given name? I've heard of people named Even, but don't know whether it's Hebrew. Is כאפא used as a name in Hebrew, or only in Aramaic? What's a guitar called in Hebrew?
Hi. Would it be too much to ask if there is any way the playlist could be broken into smaller sections? It's getting hard to find videos now that there are over 100 in here. Maybe in groups of 20 or so? Thank you so much! ❤❤
Dear Beth, you are doing a marvelous and excellent job. I really enjoy watching your videos. It’s great fun and I can learn a lot. But in your last scene with Potiphar I think that is a mistake if I understand it correctly, do you want to say that Potiphar had a slave, whose name was Joseph. But you used the verb. היה which means “was”, but Potiphar was not a slave, but he had a slave whose name was Josef. what do you think am I mistaking or was this a little mistake in the dialogue? I’m looking forward to your answer.
The literal translation would be something like "To Potiphar the Egyptian was a slave and His name (was) Joseph" but a smoother English translation would be "Potiphar the Egyptian had a slave and his name was Joseph."

I studied hebrew many years ago, and you are helping me to not only get back to study, but my son watches your videos with me
7:53 Is it just me or Avram drinking the water cracks me up 😂😂

They both keep me smiling and learning!
SHALOM BET Y HABRAN GRACIAS POR SUS CLACES . ME SIRVEN DE MUCHO.
An easy way to remember Neten= give is the Israeli Prime minister name Netanyahu means God -Yehweh -has given.

Yes exactly!
@@AlephwithBeth Thanks! Your pedagogy is like magic 🥳
Btw the grammar google doc you guys are updating is really great. Keep it up 😇
טוב מאוד
Shalom Beth! Excelente trabajo-- una pregunta,; enseñan ustedes Hebrew aparte de los vídeos.? --- me gustaría contactarlos.
Mike Minns
Hi Andrew and Beth - on the credits, please change my surname to MINNS. We know how important names are in Hebrew - right? Thank-you :)
Sorry about that error! We'll fix it
Can you explain the meaning of 22:46, It says "וכל יש לו נתן בידו" does this mean "and everything he has is given in his hand" ?
Yes, it means "and all he had he gave into his hand," or more naturally in English, "He put him in charge of everything he had."
@@AlephwithBeth Thanks🙏🏼
Thank you for teaching this. You actually made me understand certain things more than when I'm
in the class. How can we contact you?
Precious metals 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
Nice
At 14:28, you say, "anachnu shamanu." When would it be OK to just say, "shamanu"? Is including the personal pronoun for emphasis?
Yes, it's fine (in fact usually better) to just say "shama'nu." In Biblical Hebrew, including the subject pronoun with a verb which is already marked for the subject gives extra emphasis to the subject. Occasionally in the videos I include the pronoun for teaching purposes, to make sure viewers are correctly picking up on the marking of the verb, but saying "anahnu shama'nu" is more like saying "WE hear" with extra emphasis. Unless you want to emphasize the subject, just saying "shama'nu" is more correct.
Why does Andrew say (at 7:53) "tnee lee myam" instead of "ten lee myam"?
Hi Mike, Command/imperative verbs have different forms depending on whether you're talking to a man or woman or a group of men or a group of women. In the video I use the masc. sg. form "ten" when talking to Avram, and Avram uses the fem. sg. form "t'ni" when talking to me. The feminine forms end with yod.
Can אבן be used as a given name? I've heard of people named Even, but don't know whether it's Hebrew.
Is כאפא used as a name in Hebrew, or only in Aramaic?
What's a guitar called in Hebrew?
Not that I'm aware of... My brother's name is Evan, but it doesn't derive from Hebrew.
גִיטָרָה 🎸😁
I'm sorry for foolish doubt.
Ein li zahav! Ein li cesef! 😂
Plural de pães?
Não há plural de pão. Em hebraico, pão é um substantivo não contável, como arroz ou leite em português
@@AlephwithBeth legal, nao sabia disso. Tem outros semelhantes a esses?
אבן נקבה ?what mean
In Biblical Hebrew there are masculine and feminine nouns. "Stone" (אֶבֶן) is a "feminine" (נְקֵבָה) noun.
THANK YOU. I UNDERSTAND
Hi. Would it be too much to ask if there is any way the playlist could be broken into smaller sections? It's getting hard to find videos now that there are over 100 in here. Maybe in groups of 20 or so? Thank you so much! ❤❤
Yeah eventually it will need to be split up, it's true. I may not be able to get to it right away, but I'll try and do it soon ;)
The fake "shalom" half way through the video really got me...
Question is why not use מה mah! Here you use meh.
In the Biblical Hebrew text, mah turns to meh when the following word begins with the letter ayin.
טודה Thank you🎶🎶
