Hebrew (Biblical)

The Department of Religious Studies will be offering RELI 211 (Classical Hebrew I) in Fall 2022; this course is designed as an introduction to Biblical Hebrew for students with no Hebrew background. Biblical Hebrew is taught at the introductory level as a two-semester sequence under the course numbers RELI 211/212 (Classical Hebrew I/II: A Linguistic Introduction to the Hebrew Bible). RELI 212 will be offered in Spring 2023.

Students interested in Hebrew can also consider enrolling in Modern Hebrew (HEBR) through the Department of Asian and Middle Eastern Studies.

If you have studied Hebrew before and have specific questions about the suitability of RELI 211/212 to your language level, contact Prof. Joseph Lam.

For more information about future course offerings in this area, please contact the Department Registrar, Ms. Myra Quick.
