Biblical Hebrew
Learning Biblical Hebrew does not need to give you an ulcer! In fact, it can be both fun and formative. This textbook introduces an approach that will help you learn an ancient language and have fun doing it. Biblical Hebrew: An Interactive Approach will help you learn the original language of the Old Testament with your whole person: body, mind, and spirit. You will...+ Memorize and perform playful dialogues based on the book of Jonah in Hebrew;+ Learn several passages from the Hebrew Bible by heart;+ Encounter the biblical texts and the grammar through interactive drills and exercises;+ Discover the deep connections between the grammar of Hebrew and the theology of the Hebrew Bible;+ Involve your whole body in the learning process;+ Learn how to pronounce all the letters and vowels, and how to read Hebrew.The following pages will invite you on a journey into the strange new world of the Old Testament Scriptures. You are likely to discover along the way that the stories you have probably heard and read many times (Jonah, Genesis 1, The Binding of Isaac in Genesis 22) are more profound than you ever imagined they could be. Learning Biblical Hebrew will change the way you read the Bible forever, and Biblical Hebrew: An Interactive Approach will help you enjoy the process, and remember what you learned for years to come.-Travis "Moshe" West is Professor of Hebrew and Old Testament at Western Theological Seminary in Holland, MI.

A Brief History of Latin and Romance Languages
How many times have you heard someone say 'Latin is a dead language'? More often than not they are referring to Classical Latin, a formal and literary style of Latin that existed at a finite period of time, accounting for about 30% of the language's timeline as a whole. A dead language is one that no longer has any native speakers, even if the language is still in use. However, Latin is not dead because it lives on in the Romance Languages, which are its continuation.In previous centuries, education traditionally focused heavily on Classical Latin because of what was written in that time, building on what the Romans had achieved in the same way that the Romans had built on the achievements of the Ancient Greeks. In the midst of this focus, some Latin teachers even went so far as to tell their students 'There is no such thing as Medieval Latin, there is only Classical Latin, and mistakes'.Is someone speaking Latin incorrectly if they are not following the style of its golden age like one of Cicero's speeches? Transposing that same question to English, is someone speaking English incorrectly because they are not following the style of Charles Dickens? or William Shakespeare? or Chaucer? or Beowulf? Of course not. These so-called 'mistakes' or 'vulgarisms' are a reflection of how people actually spoke across the Roman world in their day to day lives, and how that changed over time. It was Vulgar Latin that evolved into the Romance Languages, which are spoken around the world to this day.This book explores the history of Latin, both in literature and in every day speech, from the Roman Empire to its collapse, linguistic and political reinvention, and the flourishing of literature in the vernacular during the Medieval Period. With texts along the way fully translated with word lists for easy reference.This book is designed to be of use and interest to anyone with a passion for Latin, Romance Languages, or languages and history in general.
Ogham, The Ancient Celtic Alphabet
Ogham is an ancient Celtic writing system, alphabet, or cipher that was primarily designed to inscript Archaic Irish (sometimes called Primitive Irish), later Old Irish, and some Pictish and Old Welsh.As well as having origins documented in the fields of history, linguistics, and archaeology, it also has a history of magic and mythology in Ancient Celtic Religion or Celtic Paganism.Since the 20th century, there has been a revival of interest in this and other ancient polytheistic religions and spiritual practices by a growing number of Pagan or Neo-Pagan communities across the world.It is the aim of this book to provide the bigger picture about where these symbols have come from, how they have developed, how they have been used, and how their use has evolved over two thousand years.
