We are pleased to announce new Aramaic resources available for BibleWorks 8.This continues BibleWorks' tradition of providing some new resources for free.
The first new resource is the Introductory Lessons in Aramaic, by Eric D. Reymond. This introductory Aramaic grammar includes exercises, answers to the exercises, and a glossary.
The second new resource is a set of Aramaic Paradigms for Aramaic verbs, produced by Jan Verbruggen. Included in a future update will be the full set of sound files by Jan Verbruggen for each paradigm. The sound files will be posted shortly, after making some adjustments to the updater to install the sound files correctly.
This is a free download for BibleWorks 8 users.
It is available through the BibleWorks 8 updater under Help | BibleWorks on the Internet | Check for updates.
