Hi folks:>
I was wondering if you would be willing to share stories or places where
your knowledge of Hebrew has let you see something in the text, or have an
insight that made you say 'wow'. I am not thinking of advanced studies,
and the cutting edge insights you have made so much as I am asking us to
reflect back on our early experiences with the language. In some cases,
later reflection may have led us to discard aspects of those insights, but
their emotional impact remains.
My purpose is to collect stories to motivate beginning students. We know
that learning Hebrew is a lot of work, and it can get discouraging. These
stories can give students, perhaps some even lurking on this list, a
reminder of why they are doing it.
...
My guess is many of you have much better stories and insights. Lets
collect them to motivate the novices on the list, and also to help one
another encourage our students.
