Read the Bible in its own words.

Two language tracks and a set of study skills. Hebrew first — consonants, vowels, then Genesis itself, computed from the Westminster Leningrad Codex. Greek second — the alphabet, then John 1. And the skills that make the languages worth having: how to study, how to build frameworks, how to memorize. Nothing here is estimated.

Track 1 — Biblical Hebrew

Step 1אָלֶף The Letters All 22 consonants and the 5 final forms. Eight drill modes, including audio, numeric values, and the look-alike pairs that cost every beginner time. Start → Step 2נִקּוּד The Vowels The 15 vowel points the Masoretes added beneath the letters — plus the traps, including two signs that are literally identical and mean different things. Start → Step 3בְּרֵאשִׁית Read Genesis 1–5 Words → phrases → verses → the whole chapter. 138 verses, 1,815 words, every one of them tappable. Start →

Track 2 — Biblical Greek

Step 1Αα The Greek Alphabet All 24 letters plus the breathing marks and accents. Same drill engine as the Hebrew letters — look-alikes, names, sounds, numeric values. Start → Step 2Λόγος Read John 1 "In the beginning was the Word." John's Gospel opens where Genesis opens — the Greek mirror of the Hebrew track, every word tappable. Start →

The skills — languages are the tool, study is the point

What it costs you — Genesis 1 through 5

Chapter	Verses	Words	New words to learn	Running total
1	31	434	+103	103
2	25	328	+89	192
3	24	347	+69	261
4	26	341	+74	335
5	32	365	+27	362

362 words gets you five chapters. And notice chapter 5 — it adds only 27 new words across 365. It's the genealogy from Adam to Noah, the same formula ten times over. It's the best confidence chapter in the Bible: you'll read the whole thing and understand nearly all of it.
