While written for the modern Hebrew language the verb tables will be an invaluable tool when studying the Biblical Hebrew verbs as the meaning of verbs have changed little from Biblical to modern times. Probably the most difficult aspect of the Hebrew language (both biblical and modern) is recognizing and translating the various verb tenses (perfect and imperfect) and forms (hiphil, niphil, hitpa'el, etc). This book will provide the Hebrew student with every possible verb combination making verb translation much easier.
A classic for twenty years, now this updated edition includes Hebrew verbs in current usage, 235 tables, and a comprehensive index.

This book is excellent. It will become one of the most important books you have, second only to a dictionary.
A reader from Boca Raton, FL United States
As a homestudied sudent of modern Hebrew I have found this book to be an invaluable source to my learning. In fact, as I have covered most of basic grammar, it is now the core of my Hebrew study, aside from conversation. I use it's neatly organized verb index to strengthen my vocabulary. It is slim, not a bulky book, but eminently thorough and probably contains every verb you will ever need to know. In the front and back are the verb indexes in Hebrew-English, English-Hebrew. When you look up a verb the book gives you the root ("shoresh") of it and directs you to one of 235 numbered example conjugations after which your verb follows. A must have for the serious Hebrew student!
