STEP Introduction and study guides
This YouTube channel introduces you to the basic use, and gently leads you into deeper study. You'll find yourself looking into the original text without needing to know any Hebrew or Greek, and you'll find out how to delve into the text for yourself.
Finding a Hebrew word without knowing Hebrew
This shows how to find all the places in Ruth chapter 1 where the Hebrew verb shub ('turn / return') occurs, even if you know no Hebrew at all. You don't need to look for Strong's Numbers or any other arcane tricks.
