This Hebrew Grammar is a helpful instrument both for the beginner and the more advanced
student. The views adopted in this grammar have been corroborated by briefly referring to
papers or paragraphs of grammars. Phonology has been based on the assumption of a general
penultimate stress. In morphology nouns have been arranged according to synchronical rather
than diachronical principles. As for syntax it was considered best to base the sections
dealing with it on the quoted Biblical excerpts rather than to adduce selected syntactical
phenomena from the whole Bible. The new edition has brought the grammar up-to-date including
references to scientific literature written in modern Hebrew.
