Overview

The Hebrew Bible Insert is designed to be used in conjunction with the Biblia Hebraica Stuttgartensia, as a guide to the syntax of Biblical Hebrew. Examples of virtually every major syntactic construction are available from within the text, as well as paradigms to aid in the declining of nouns and parsing of verbs. As such, the Insert is a valuable tool to assist the student of Biblical Hebrew in the analysis of the Hebrew text. The Insert also offers tremendous benefit to the beginning Hebrew student by presenting the difficulties of Hebrew syntax in a clear, concise, and ordered manner.
