4.0 out of 5 stars Standard Reference Grammar for BH in English, August 6, 2003
This review is from: Gesenius' Hebrew Grammar (Hardcover)
Gesenius' Hebrew Grammar is the standard reference grammar in English for Biblical Hebrew. Anyone serious about reading and translating Hebrew Bible will need a copy on their shelf for reference, when things get difficult. The book is well indexed, so navigation is not too difficult. There is also a scriptural index, so finding entries that directly relate to a passage that you are working on may be found. The verbal paradigms are in the back of the book. They are complete. Given the age of the text, the language used to describe grammatical and syntactic features may be unfamiliar to people trained in modern linguistics.

All this said, I like Waltke and O'Connors' Introduction to Biblical Hebrew Syntax better. I frequently end up consulting multiple sources when really stuck, so it pays to have both.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Price, but not Most Recent Edition, June 5, 2006
Gesenius' Hebrew Grammar remains as one of the standard grammars for Biblical Hebrew studies. This paperback edition is a very affordable alternative to the expensive hardcover edition. Especially suitable for starving graduate students such as myself! However, it should be noted that the Dover paperback edition was apparently not printed from the most recent hardcover edition & therefore doesn't have the updated indices that the newer edition has, which may explain why it is so cheap. Otherwise it appears to be identicle to the hardcover.

5.0 out of 5 stars By far the best in Hebrew Grammars, March 24, 2003
By 
Kevin John Boddecker (Langhorne, PA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Gesenius' Hebrew Grammar (Hardcover)
I have used many other grammars in my studies of Biblical Hebrew and none have been as helpful as this one. I would seriously consider selling the others if they were not required texts for my future studies. His handling of Hebrew and cognate languages will give a student a much deeper knowledge than many of the modern grammars targeted at a lazier student audience.
