Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Hebrew Chrestomathy: Or, Lesson in Reading and Writing Hebrew
The passages selected for reading have been chosen with a view to their intrinsic interest, their progressive difficulty, and the variety of their style and character. The notes are at the outset chie?y grammatical and of the most elementary kind, di recting the attention of the student to those matters of form and of construction, which he is expected thenceforward to investi gate for himself. The aid thus given both by the suggestion of principles and by references to the Grammar, is gradually withdrawn as the presumed progress of the student renders it super?uous; and questions of criticism and interpretation are admitted to greater prominence, the knowledge of the language being thus applied, as it is gained, to its most important end, the exposition of the Holy Scriptures.
