Since the difference between the ancient and modern Hebrew is relatively
minor, and could be covered in a month or so, which is not a major term for
people devoting their life time to Hebrew studies, may I suggest that this
negligence to the modern Hebrew has doctrinal roots?
In your example, Medieval French scholar relies on the publications of
French-speaking scientists, and so needs the modern French. But in the
Hebrew studies, opinions of the Jews are a curiosity at the most because
they do not understand the divine message, anyway. Believe it or not, this
is the reply I once got from a reputable group of scholars working on the
translation of Tanakh.

Best regards,
