We are delighted to announce the release of a deck of flashcards for A Basic Introduction to Biblical Hebrew, by Jo Ann Hackett (Hendrickson, 2010). This deck contains all 400+ words in this deductive grammar of Biblical Hebrew, using the precise lexemes and glosses in the grammar. It also includes chapter, part of speech, and frequency (including verbal stem frequency) information. As is customary for our Babel Flashcards decks, glosses for verbs are shown visually. Derivative decks corresponding to each chapter automatically come with it, and you can easily create your own derivative decks as well.
We are excited to announce that this deck also includes audio! You can hear Jo Ann Hackett and John Huehnergard pronounce the Hebrew lexemes.
