This is a great tool for one who wishes to study the ancient Hebrew text of the Bible. I believe much is lost in the English translation which is slanted by Western thinking. Well worth the price of the book

This book is a wonderful introduction to the world of the Hebrew Language. I have been struggling to teach myself Hebrew, and frankly was having trouble learning the aleph-beit. So many letters that look similar! Such a different type of writing! And why do they have three letters than mean "s", more than one "K" and two that don't have any sound, anyway?

THIS BOOK ANSWERS THOSE QUESTIONS, and more!

This book explains the origins of Hebrew, and allows you to see what each of the ancient letters MEAN. I had been wondering how the sages made determinations of the "real" meanings of Hebrew words by looking at the letters that make them up, and now I know! This book will open a window to the Hebrew Language that will "turn you on" to how the language works, and how it affects the Jewish Faith. Their earliest beliefs about G-d will become very clear...just by studying the letters they used to spell his name.

GREAT BOOK.

The book actually contains only about 50 pages of simple to understand background information on the ancient Hebrew language. The rest of the book deals with specific appendices that detail information on the pictographic and alphabetic characters themselves. All told, the info opens up a wide area of additional information on Bible names.

I am a borderline agnostic with a sincere interest in Ancient Greek, Hebrew, Egyptian Hieroglyphs, early Phoenecian scripts, etc. I don't care about anyone else's religious beliefs and I don't care if the occasional prejudice slips through between the lines now & then when I am reading the works of authors with a passion for their faith, as long as I am learning something in a subject of interest.

Sure, I disagreed with a few of Mr. Benner's opinions here and there but in the end I have to say that this is the single best book I have seen that teaches introductory 'Ancient Hebrew 101' in such a clear, readable, and most importantly, learnable fashion. Now I can order Mr. Benner's other books with confidence that I will actually learn a good deal of the subject matter rather than fall asleep trying to stay focused on the dry, boring, dull treatment of ancient scripts given by snobbish academians whose obvious priority is trying to impress their peers rather than actually teach the neophytes.

Another good book on ancient scripts is "Mysteries of the Alphabet" by Ouaknin.

Jeff Benner's books "His Name Is One" and "The Ancient Hebrew Language and Alphabet" are must reads for all Christians. Christianity over the millenia has stripped away it's Jewish roots thereby depriving today's Christian of it's rich heritage. Jeff's books help retrieve some of that lost heritage and introduces you to a God that is more awesome and more personal than you thought possible. I am anxious to read "Learn Biblical Hebrew"!

This book carries the subject of the small booklet, Learn the Ancient Pictographic Hebrew Alephbet, to another level. It expands on the meanings, explains the culture and thought patterns of the ancient Hebrews and demonstrates how this affects the language and therefore the interpretation of Scripture. It traces the evolution of the alephbet with use of charts. It gives root words in pictographs and ties the ancient Hebrew roots with Strong's numbers. It is an excellent work with many benefits, and I highly recommend it.

I didn't realize how much Western society thinking has distorted our understanding of "The Word of the Most High." Your books have been extremely instrumental in helping me to understand Ancient Hebrew tradition, thereby causing me to "Rightly Divide the Word." Thank you so much for your incredible insights! Keep up the Good Work!

Your books are absolutely fantastic. There is nothing else like them available anywhere. They are very scholarly, yet simple enough for a lay person. They open the door to understanding so much in Scripture. They are such a blessing. I hope you publish more and more. I highly recommend your publications to everyone.

I used Ancient Hebrew Language and Alphabet as a foundation course in our Hebrew class. It was excellent and the students really enjoyed it. They were amazed at the pictorial meanings of the letters and to see that our English alphabet evolved from the Hebrew. I know that as we continue our class that we will be referring back to the book and gain an even greater understanding of the Hebrew thought. Our end goal is to gain a greater understanding of the scriptures as the Lord intended and I beleve that these books will aid in our quest for truth.

Your books are very helpful, the books with the ancient pictorial hebrew are very much needed today, they have so much meaning behind them. I see how some of the pictures tie in with the anatomy of the body, it just shows you how amazing yhwh design is, blessed be his name , I have not had a chance to get your new book, his name is one , but it looks very good. Keep up the good work , it is very valuble, and very much needed. Shalom, Zech
