Biblical Hebrew Vocabulary/Video Flash Cards

Gab Share

I have a terrible memory and made these mainly to assist me in my Hebrew language studies to help me build vocabulary. It took me ALL DAY to make these, and I can’t get my GIMP (to make the Hebrew letters) to make the Hebrew ש (pronounced sheen) that has a dot on the upper right. It also does not do compound shewas very well, either. But it still helps me to learn my vocabulary. This 3 minute video took me ALL DAY. Wish I had a photographic memory! I had to download Biblical Hebrew fonts to my computer to pull this off.

I got my alphabet flashcards from this page, and then modified them with permanent black marker to make them suitable for Bill Barrick’s online Hebrew class: https://www.hebrew4christians.com/Grammar/Unit_One/unit_one.html

I imagine this will bore most people. But for those who are studying Hebrew under Bill Barrick at the Master’s Seminary, you’ll probably love me! https://www.sbl-site.org/educational/BiblicalFonts_SBLHebrew.aspx

I plan to make video flash cards of the vocabulary lists that Bill Barrick requires of his Hebrew Seminary students, since I have such a hard time remembering all this! Those who attend Master’s Seminary or who are studying Biblical Hebrew will love me! Like most professors teaching a difficult subject, he encourages his students not to give up, that it will get easier later if they stick with it.
