Biblical Hebrew Forum

[James Read <J.Read-2 AT sms.ed.ac.uk>]

Obviously, we're all spread out all over the world so we can't do a  
conventional reading group thing. However, I think if we do this  
slowly we have the opportunity to make discussion archives which can  
be a useful point of reference for students of Hebrew. I was thinking  
we could do something like take a section at a time and discuss the  
vocabulary of each section with reference to forms, idiom, ancient  
translation traditions, theories about how best to translate etc.

What do you think?
