I think on a previous episode I might have confessed to you that historians are strange people, and they like to visit strange places. And I think I mentioned to you that I like to visit cemeteries. Well in addition to cemeteries, historians also like to visit libraries. I know, sounds really exciting doesn't it? But, this library and this find is exciting.
This is the library at Princeton University, and there at Princeton University among the many interesting books is one book in particular that I'd like to talk to you about. Well, for you to get a sense of it, it's about 4"x 6"x 4," so about 4 inches wide, about 6 inches in length, and about 4 inches thick. But what's fascinating about this book is the binding. It is actually bound in otter skin. That's right, otter skin. And not only is it bound in otter skin, but it's painted with blue and red stripes; and its painted in a style that's the characteristic painting of the eastern woodland Indians. So we have an otter-skin bound, painted, Hebrew dictionary.

It is a dictionary of Hebrew and also of Aramaic. It was first published in Bazel in 1654, and somehow it made it's way into the hands of David Brainerd. When David Brainerd died it passed on to Jonathan Edwards. So it was actually in possession of Jonathan Edwards. And of course at the end of his life, Jonathan Edwards was at Princeton and somehow that Hebrew dictionary made its way through the Edwards family, and some Edwards family member gave it to Princeton University.
Brainerd started off his life as a farmer. When he was 18 years old he inherited a farm, and he farmed it for about 3 years. And then when he was 21 he had a conversion, and at his conversion he says that he was given a "hearty desire to exult God and seek first His Kingdom." Well, about two months after his conversion he went to Yale. And as he entered Yale this was at the time of the Great Awakening, so this is right around 1740, 1741-42. And in 1742, Brainerd was certainly part of the revival fervor. And he was concerned for the state of the soul of some of his professors. In fact at one point, David Brainerd, a student at Yale said of one of his professors, this professor has "No more grace than a chair." Well, for that David Brainerd found himself expelled from Yale University, and that's when he began his work among the Native Americans in 1743.
By 1746, after just a few short years of missionary work, Brainerd was so ill that he simply could not continue. We know now that he had Tuberculosis. In fact he had it back from his first year at Yale. So he made his way North, ended up at Northampton in Massachusetts and was in the home of Jonathan Edwards. And while he was there, Jonathan Edwards took his diary and expanded upon it and wrote a biography, "The Life of David Brainerd." And it was there in Edwards' home, in 1747 that at the age of 29, David Brainerd died.
His epitaph, which most likely was written by Edwards, simply records, "A faithful and laborious missionary to the Stockbridge, Delaware, and Susquehannah Indians." And not only was he a faithful missionary, he was also a faithful student. And so he had in his possession his Hebrew dictionary with its otter skin binding, and it's blue and red painted stripes.
Do dictionaries exist that focus on the vocabulary of Rabbinic/Mishnaic Hebrew, including idioms? Ideally, I am hoping that a dictionary exists that includes Rabbinic/Mishnaic Hebrew as well as the Hebrew of Tanakh. I often come across words in Rabbinic texts that are not found in Tanakh, or have a different meaning in Tanakh, and likewise do not exist or have a different connotation in Modern Hebrew. This makes translation difficult when I currently only have access to Tanakh concordances and Modern Hebrew dictionaries.

Actually, I'm missing my Greek-German dictionary. When doubleclicking on a Greek word, instead of the German-Greek, there opens the Greek-English dictionary. Also the the dictionary used in the information panel is the English one.
Our dictionary is not organized according to alphabet but rather according to similarity of form. For instance: we list the word (dam) meaning blood in the same general article as the word ('adom) meaning red, even though these words are generally considered to stem from separate roots.
What our dictionary has in common with most other ones, however, is that for a specific noun or adjective, the user will have to look under its root. The index per letter below will lead to the alphabetical listing of roots we've treated so far, irrespective of in which article they appear.
Sometimes the scope of a word is so wide that its dictionary article took on the form of a thematic encyclopedia article. We list the titles of those thematic articles from our Hebrew dictionary here for convenient perusing. Please see the Greek index for more of these thematic articles.
Dr. James Strong and a team of scholars spent more than thirty-five years preparing the Strong's numbering system which has become the standard for identifying words with links to the original Greek and Hebrew words. With the numbering system tied to a particular word in English, the average lay-person can easily study the meanings of the Greek and Hebrew words.
This unique digital resource serves as an alternative version of the Strong's dictionary, providing a phonetic pronunciation when you click on the corresponding Hebrew and Greek words. In addition, this resource includes links for Hebrew words to their entries in the Theological Wordbook of the Old Testament (TWOT) and Greek words in the Theological Dictionary of the New Testament (TDNT) for those that own those separate lexical resources.
In 1856, Wesleyan University granted him the degree of Doctor of Divinity, and from 1858 until 1861, he served as both professor of Biblical Literature and acting president of Troy University. In 1868 he became professor of Exegetical Theology at Drew Theological Seminary, where he remained for twenty-seven yearss. In 1881 Wesleyan honored Strong again, this time with the degree of Doctor of Laws (LL.D.).
I want to buy iPad Air, but before i do that, i need to know how i can translate hebrew in iPad with a tap. I need that for translating words i don't know in books and articles, for improving my english language. I tried to add (in the iphone) hebrew dictionary to the iOS built in dictionary, but i failed. I need other solution for that, it's so important to me, and that the only reason i want to buy iPad.
It's so important to me, that the only reason i want to buy iPad Air, and if it doesn't work, i won't buy it. I send them message to the support, i wait they fix the problem with the Hebrew language. I hope the message i sent, they received.
Personally I would not buy a device if its usefullness to me depended on whether some free 3rd party app happens to work or not. There are iOS upgrades all the time and no guarantee that the people who make the app will bother to keep it up to date with them.
When Eliezer Ben-Yehuda arrived in Palestine in 1881, Hebrew had not been the spoken language of the Jewish people since the time of the Bible. Yet, thanks to Ben-Yehuda, by 1922 enough Jewish pioneers were speaking Hebrew that the British Mandate authorities recognized it as the official language of Jews in Palestine.Ben-Yehuda conceived of Jewish nationalism as both the return to the historical homeland in the land of Israel, as well as the revival of the Hebrew language. To accomplish the latter, Ben-Yehuda needed to inspire a near impossible feat: transform Hebrew, which for centuries had been used only in study, into a modern spoken language.
Eventually Ben-Yehuda transferred to a Russian school, but he remained obsessed with modern Hebrew literature, eagerly consuming Hebrew periodicals, especially those concerned with Jewish nationalism. For Ben-Yehuda, nationalism became a way to embrace Hebrew without religion.
However, in the rare occurrences when inter-communal affairs required verbal communication, a modified form of medieval Hebrew was the common language. The Hebrew spoken in these contexts was far from what would be required for a national, modern language, but the news nevertheless inspired Ben-Yehuda to move to Palestine.
Arriving in Jerusalem in 1881, Ben-Yehuda immediately put his plan of Hebrew revival into action. He left behind his birth name and with his wife, Deborah Jonas, he created the first Modern Hebrew-speaking household. He also raised the first modern Hebrew-speaking child, Ben-Zion Ben-Yehuda.
Ben-Yehuda began collecting material for the creation of a Modern Hebrew dictionary when he arrived in Israel, and never ceased expanding the language, frequently spending 18-hour workdays developing new words and writing articles.
