Hebrew: "The Language Pleasing to God"
In reading Pseudo-Clementine's Recognitions for my devotions . . . (just kidding!) I came across this rather amusing passage:
In the fifteenth generation, men first worshiped fire and constructed idols. Now, until that time one language prevailed, the language pleasing to God: Hebrew (1.30.5)All my OT pals will love this quote!

What are the Best Hebrew Grammars?
From a survey of the readers, what are the top Hebrew Grammars for teaching students:
Mark David Futato, Beginning Biblical Hebrew
Page H. Kelley, Biblical Hebrew: An Introductory Grammar
Gary D. Pratico and Miles V. Van Pelt, Basics of Biblical Hebrew Grammar
Allen P. Ross, Introducing Biblical Hebrew
Other ???
I've used Ross a bit and, while it's thorough and systematic, it struck me as a book better for training linguists than pastors.
