Re: Introduction: Sam
Also, I wasn't aware that you preferred to be called Sam. I certainly don't prefer to be called Jase, although my mom tends to use that name with me.

Re: Question for Students in Advanced Hebrew
If anything, the threads regarding our weekly assignments. It isn't a big deal, though. Yeah, I was kinda wondering what parts of the discussion we are interested in keeping out of the public eye.

Re: Introduction: Sam
* I'm a fan of Star Wars & Lord of the Rings, among other things. I'm disappointed that Harry Potter didn't merit a mention there. I'm so happy that Disney took over and expanded Star Wars . The new content that they put out (especially The Mandalorian ) has provided me with such joy. Seeing Sn...

The Ten Commandments for Reading and Memorization
There are two versions of the Ten Commandments in the Bible: in Exodus 20 and in Deuteronomy 5. When I memorized them, I did so from Exodus 20. Here's the text: 1 וַיְדַבֵּ֣ר אֱלֹהִ֔ים אֵ֛ת כָּל־הַדְּבָרִ֥ים הָאֵ֖לֶּה לֵאמֹֽר׃ 2 אָֽנֹכִי֙ יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹהֶ֔יךָ אֲשֶׁ֧ר הֽוֹצֵאתִ֛יךָ מֵאֶ֥רֶץ מִצְרַ֖יִם ...

As you do your compositions...
The heart of the advanced Hebrew course is Jacob Weingreen's Classical Hebrew Composition (Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1962).
