The language of ivrit ( עברית ) Genesis 4, DTube Video #1
Welcome to my DTube Hebrew reading & language series.
The full study is now on line covering the Alef-Beyt here in my blog. This is a beginners program to teach letters, vowels, and reading. The vowels are marked in this bible and are designed to help avoid confusion on what a word is and how it is pronounced. The confusion is obvious in the hundreds of interpretations globally.
A milestone was hit, having read three full chapters. If you have been with me this far, you are already seeing words that are familiar and easily recognizable. Congratulations.
Today we start Genesis with 4:1-3
These little verses cover the birth, childhood and the professions of each of their two sons.
If the gestation periods are all the same as they are now, these three verses encompass almost two years for the first half and what they did with their lives in the second half. It seems that they were competing to put together an offering to Elohim.
The younger, Abel, kept sheep, but the older one, Cain, made an offering of the fruit of the ground to Yahova. The continuation in verse four is for next week.
This week I am reading slowly and leaving space for you to repeat the words as I go. Please click the links to read with me on DTube. Thanks.

שיעור מרתק שבוע טוב לכולם
I missed this one, so coming back to catch up. I'm sorry you weren't feeling well. Hopefully you're better now.
One of the things I have been doing on your posts is to just read through the whole thing in English, but to read it in the order that things are translated. It's a very different sentence structure from English. I had some German friends who could speak English, but we sometimes say things like, "Let's to the park go" and I got an appreciation for different word ordering from that.
What does this mean? It appeared four times in this passage, but there's no translation given. It came after different words/phrases ("he knew", "and she bore", "to bear", and "brother of him", but it's the same every time.
Your great job highly appreciate from me...your videos are awesome @hebrew.
Holy words. Thanks for sharing this.
I've missed some episodes but I'm glad to be here this night. Your teachings and insight on the word is always appreciated. Keep up the good work.
This is an entire Hebrew class for beginners. You need only go to the beginning where each blog explains one of the letters and how it sounds. Learn at your own pace!

Sir,
This is a very valuable article.We are very useful in learning the language.
Thank you for great writing experience.
Thank you for giving us knowledge, I'm sure many people know little about the Bible.
An excellent lesson, my friend and the study of Being with your interpretation of Hebrew, gives me a greater understanding of your beautiful language, which makes this lesson interesting and informative! Thank you @hebrew
