[HANASHIR:16194] Re: Learn Modern Hebrew!

[Jacqueline Guttman <jguttman...>]

I want to give a testimonial to the joys of studying Hebrew. I've been
taking a prayerbook Hebrew course at HUC, in part to be able to tell the
choir what they are singing about. Recently, I was at a choral concert where
a mass was being performed. I was reading the translation and came upon
"Blessed is he who comes in the name of God" and lo and behold, I started
saying "Baruch haba..."  It was SO exciting. Such joy.
