Good addition to Aramaic Library August 22, 2008 clarion 222 (North Port, Fl.) Yes, you should have a course ,or be self taught,in modern or biblical hebrew before tackling this or any other Aramaic grammer I've encountered. Fortunately a matching answer key book is now available.I personally spent 5 years as a part time student of biblical and modern hebrew and found this particular study sequence helpful. First I studied "An introduction to Aramaic-second edition-by Frederick Greenspahn" (available from Amazon)using this book as a companion/advanced study tool. Greenspahn's book seemed more accessalble and user friendly but this book has important classical lessons and info. I would not want to be without. As a side note I wish someone would put out a book for the study of the Aramaic of the Zohar which has nuances and vocabulary beyond the 33 some verses in the bible written in Aramaic.
Does just what it says on the box December 17, 2007 Alec "Zaabia" Battles-Singer (Alpha Cassiopeia) This is a good book for studying Biblical Aramaic. If you're ultimately interested in other phases of the language, it would be a good way to start. It's short, compact, reasonably challenging, and pretty serious. The only reason why I didn't give it five stars is because I find the author's style quite dull, and it really requires prior knowledge of Hebrew (or another Semitic language) to begin reading -- since the prerequisites aren't mentioned anywhere besides one of the first pages, I consider it a drawback.
way over my head, but it looks thorough August 5, 2007 Frater Gymnos i was glad to discover this book at such a great price. i'm sure it's a valuable collection to one's semetic languages library. however, it uses Hebrew Script when i was hoping for Syriac, and skips over grammatical constructions one should have learned in Biblical Hebrew class. i'll need this someday, but - for now - i'm going looking for a syriac text, or something that starts with the alphabet... any suggestions?
A Helpful Book That Needs Help July 3, 2007 emmauseagle This book assumes that one trying to study Aramaic already knows Hebrew. If you know Hebrew then this book is pretty easy to follow. The one thing that is lacking is an answer key for the assignments. James N. Jumper has an annotated key that makes up for this deficiency and I strongly recommend it.
Short and to the Point June 28, 2007 Jared C. Clark 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This book is a wonderful introductory grammar for Biblical Aramaic. It gives you everything you need to know, and doesn't overwhelm the reader. Charts, vocab, grammar, all in one very small book at a great price! Any Biblical Hebrew student should get this book to strengthen their understanding of Hebrew and semetic languages.
