The Hebrew Project: Complete Audio mp3s

I have created a separate Page (as opposed to Blog Post) with all these links - in case you want to bookmark it.  See the sidebar for the link.


Torah

The Hebrew Project: Writings - Ruth, Song of Songs, Eccesiastes/Qohelet, Lamentations, Esther, Daniel, Ezra, Nehemiah

 Ruth (t29)

Verses 4:18-22 are chanted.


Song of Songs (t30)

Chapter 1 is sung, as are verses 8:1-7.


Eccesiastes (t31) aka Qohelet


Lamentations (t32)

The entire book of Lamentations is chanted!


Esther (t33)


Daniel (t34)


Ezra (t35a)


Nehemiah (t35b)

The Hebrew Project: The Poetic Books - Psalms, Proverbs, Job

In the study of Biblical Hebrew, these 3 books are sometimes called the Poetic Books.  They use a system of Hebrew accents/notation different from the rest of the Bible.


Psalms (t26)

Interestingly, no chanting here.  Verse 63:1 has a word chopped short.


Proverbs (t28)

The audio from this book was not great on the Mechon-Mamre site.  Much better copy at torahclass.com


Job (t27) 

The Hebrew Project: Kethuvim/Writings. 1 and 2 Chronicles.

 Onto the final division of the Hebrew Bible:  Writings.

1 Chronicles (t25a)

2 Chronicles (t25b)


1 Chronicles 2:51 and 2:52a are missing.  Verses 17:20-21 are chanted, with repetitions.

2 Chronicles has patches of poor sound quality after chapter 9 - lots of Max Headroom-ing.  Words are missing in verse 12:9, 12:15, 16:14, 17:17, 18:11, 18:26, 18:30, 20:1 and 15, and 21:2.
