Great Little Booklet!
Thank you, Mr. Nichols, for putting together this little booklet.
I can get a head start learning the holy tongue - לשון הקודש
I am now equipped with a little more biblical Hebrew knowledge...just enough
to be dangerous!
Those who want to learn some Hebrew knowledge, get your hands on
this great, little handy dandy booklet!
The only thing I would add to it is the pronunciation next to each word.
This would help the very beginners. Thank you! Todah!
