MUSIC

Anyone can freely download these mp3 files (most are 192 kbps)

Most of these songs are humor/satire oriented. About half are parodies and half are completely original. I cover a wide range of topics (Christmas songs, education, theological and Bible-related humor, bicycling, love songs, and "various" [what does not fit anywhere else]).

BIBLICAL HEBREW LINKS AND INFO

My article, Killing a Dead Language: A Case against Emphasizing Vowel Pointing when Teaching Biblical Hebrew.

I was just awarded an Evangel University summer research grant to do work on my introductory Hebrew grammar. See the above article for what will make this different from the myriad of other ones out there.

I also recommend you view Rahel Halabe's article on Hebrew pedagogy: Ancient Languages are Still Around, But Do We Really Know How to Teach Them?

See also Naama Zahavi-Ely, Teaching the Biblical Hebrew Verb.

Translations of Dead Sea Scrolls, comparing the MT to the DSS.
