Ok to be perfectly clear on this and up front. I do not enjoy Hebrew, but I enjoyed reading this book. Using Old Tesament Hebrew in Preaching did challenge me to be dilligent in continuing my Hebrew studies as well as give me hope that I might use my Hebrew skills for years to come. It is a very down to earth, practical and motivating book. I applaud author Paul D. Wegner for bringing such a relavent and timely book to my aid when I was doubting the relavance of Hebrew in my future ministry.
The book is made up of five brief chapters that are full of encouragement and motivation for Hebrew students to press on in learning the language. All along the way Wegner is sure to provide tools, references, and recomendations to support and encourage the student in his or her pursuits. Above all else, he challenges the reader to press forward in studying and using a language that can be very confusing and tricky (at least to this student). He does a great job of taking a very large challenge and stripping it to bite sized chunks.
The retail price is $17.99 (Paperback). It is also available at places like Amazon.com for $7.70 (Which is a great deal). I give it 4 stars.
