Inspiring thought concerning the Hebrew language ...
From WERBEH (read it backwards - get it?) at Daily Hebrew, from the pen of Martin Luther:
“The Hebrew language is the best language of all, with the richest vocabulary….If I were younger I would want to learn this language, because no one can really understand the Scriptures without it. For although the New Testament is written in Greek, it is full of Hebraisms and Hebrew expressions. It has therefore been aptly said that the Hebrews drink from the spring, the Greeks from the stream that flows from it, and the Latins from a downstream pool.”
