A practical introduction to Hebrew accentuation

Hebrew accents can be easy to overlook when concentrating on vocabulary and grammar. Mark D. Futato’s guide treats them as a distinct part of reading the Hebrew Bible, explaining their primary functions and how they figure into work with the text. Organized for independent study as well as reference, it offers a way to learn the accent system and return to particular explanations while reading or translating. The emphasis is on developing a working knowledge of accentuation, not simply identifying marks on a page.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Beginning students learning to read biblical Hebrew
  • More advanced students reading or translating the Hebrew Bible
  • Independent learners seeking a reference on Hebrew accents
