Excerpt from A Grammar of the Hebrew Language

To avoid the evil, however, of obliging the learner to occupy himself too much, and for too long a time, with the dry details of grammar, before he comes to know any thing particular of the use of them, I have marked a great part of the passages in the present Grammar with brackets, which should be omitted as mat ters of study, during the first time that the contents are passed over. These I have continued only as far as the declensions of nouns; for I would advise the student, when he gets thus far, to begin the practice of reading and parsing in the Chrestomathy. Nor should I deem it best, on the first going over, to make him commit any thing more of the Paradigms, than the first one of the regular verb. Let all the rest be learned in the way of practice, gradually, and not by burdening the mind at once with abstract paradigms and all the minutiae of the language. I would refer teacher and learner to my Hebrew Chrestomathy, where, in the introductory remarks to the notes on Part I. And Part II., will be found a full explanation in regard to the method of learning, which I should think it adviseable for the student to pursue.

To avoid all loss of time in searching for Paradigms, I have thrown them into a body at the end of the work; which will greatly facilitate the labour of the student. The index at the close of the volume,i have made more full than before, in order to render easy the finding of any thing which the work contains.
