The Hebrew Alphabet

Pronunciation and Writing Exercises Book 1

Beschreibung

The study of the Hebrew language is an attractive challenge for serious students of the Bible, or just curious onlookers. Referring to the TORAH, to Hebrew "prayer" books, and the dictionary still limit the basic skills needed to study this language. There are materials available through different Jewish teachers, but finding an elementary Hebrew book that teaches to write and read Hebrew is a rare jewel. By creating The Hebrew Alphabet Book 1, Silvia Owley, a trilingual foreign language teacher, is filling the gap where others have overlooked this indispensable base. Through her own research and skills, for over 37 years, she taught Spanish, English and French, using her own methodology, and established a firm foundation for learning these foreign languages. She applied the same basic principles for learning Hebrew. Today she can read and write Hebrew, and also translate Scriptures from Hebrew into English, as well as from French and Spanish Bibles. Some of the comments from students studying the Hebrew language with this book have been encouraging, as they were visiting and even attending Messianic churches, stating that there were no basic books like The Hebrew Alphabet Book 1. The goal of this book is to help students, through the bases of its alphabet, learn to sound out each letter, then link letters to form a word and finally read a full sentence. Learning the art of writing and reading from right to left, uncovering the mysteries of numerical values, and remembering the 10 Commandments in alphabetical order are a bonus while learning the Hebrew alphabet. Enjoy the simplicity of Book 1, created for the "perfect beginner" as it will help establish a strong foundation for the next building blocks of Book 2 and Book 3 of the Hebrew letters.

Silvia Owley was born in Mexico City in 1952. Her French mother was a trilingual interpreter for the United Nations and her Mexican father was the head of telecommunications in Mexico City. Her maternal grandfather was an American news reporter and photographer, and her French grandmother a foreign language teacher. Many cultures and creativity flowed into Silvia's blood preparing her "for such a time as this".Living in different countries forced her to adapt to new cultures and learn new languages. By age 12, she spoke Spanish, English and French, and studied German and Latin in school. She later became a trilingual secretary in Paris.Not being a city dweller, she joined Club Med as a sports hostess when she turned 19 and worked in Martinique (Caribbean), then Tahiti. She excelled in scuba diving, tennis, ping pong-as outdoors activities were her Paradise-not being in an office.She married at age 23 and lived in Squaw Valley, California where she became a snow-ski instructor. She has two daughters and a grandson, and is living today in Florida with her husband, Roger, both loving the game of golf.Living in California, then Nevada, she formed Silvia's Language Services, Inc., and later, Silvia's Language Ministries, Inc. Hundreds of students benefited from learning the basics for reading, writing then speaking these foreign languages.In 2014, while attending a Messianic church, she became fascinated by the Hebrew symbols and determined to master the Hebrew language. Seeking guidance from the Holy Spirit, she was led to study Hebrew just like she taught other foreign languages-step by step, letter by letter, sound by sound, repetition and memorization. After years of hard work, she achieved her desired goal. Today Silvia can read, write, translate and even sing Hebrew prayers.
