The Hebrew Language
Hebrew, a Semitic language, is the official language of Israel. It was
once considered a dead language with no native speakers, although it
remained in use for liturgical purposes. Hebrew was revived as a spoken
language in the mid-19th century and today is spoken by over 5 million
in Israel.
