Pro's: lots of exercise material, very didactical, suited for students who
are "beginning Biblical Hebrew". I still use it now and then when I want to
exercise some more and when I want a more accessible approach on a specific
topic.
Con's: it's only an introduction, so limited to the very essentials
Now I am using Lettinga in a second course. This book already has been
described by Jan Pieter van de Giessen and I second his writing. Another con
is that there is not much exercise material in this book as in Futato
(that's why I use it still).
Kind regards,
Michiel Borkent
