Modern Hebrew was developed in the 19th and 20th centuries from the ancient written form of the language.
The language in which most of the Old Testament was written dates, as a living language, from the 12th to the 2nd century bc, at the latest.
Ancient Hebrew, the language of the Bible, was succeeded by an intermediary form, Mishnaic Hebrew, about the 3rd century bc.

 Ashkenazi Hebrew language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Ashkenazi Hebrew language is a descendant of Biblical Hebrew favored for liturgical use by Ashkenazi Jewish practice.
It survives today as a separate religious dialect even alongside Modern Hebrew in Israel.
As it is used parallel with Modern Hebrew, its phonological differences are clearly recognized:

 Yemenite Hebrew language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Yemenite Hebrew language or Temani Hebrew language is a descendant of Biblical Hebrew traditionally used by Yemenite Jews.
Among the dialects of Hebrew preserved into modern times, Yemenite Hebrew is generally regarded as the form closest to Hebrew as used in ancient times, particularly Tiberian Hebrew and Mishnaic Hebrew.
Yet, according other scholars as well as Yemenite Jewish Rabbis such as Rabbi Yosef Qafah the Temani Hebrew dialect was not influenced by Yemenite Arabic, as this type of Arabic was also spoken by Yemenite Jews and is distinct from the liturgical Hebrew and the coversational Hebrew of the communities.

 Ashkenazi Jews - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The term Ashkenazi also refers to the nusach (Hebrew, "liturgical tradition") used by Ashkenazi Jews in their Siddur (prayer book).
Ashkenaz in later Hebrew tradition became identified with the peoples of Germany, and in particular to the area along the Rhine where the Alamanni tribe once lived (compare the French and Spanish words Allemagne and Alemania, respectively, for Germany).
In the first half of the eleventh century, Hai Gaon refers to questions that had been addressed to him from "Ashkenaz", by which he undoubtedly means Germany.

Abrahamic religion believes that there were (at least) four Hebrew nations in Canaan: Ammon, Moab, Edom and Israel, all believed to be direct descendants of the Hebrew patriarch Terah, whose son Abram and grandson Lot (Abram's nephew) settled in Canaan and adapted to the local language of the Canaanites.
The Hebrew languages refer to a variety of Canaanite languages and dialects historically spoken by various peoples in the region of Canaan whom Abrahamic religion believes to have been Hebrews who emigrated from the Chaldees.
These different languages were not necessarily more or less related to each other than to other Canaanite languages, and their traditional distinction as Hebrew languages is almost purely by religious belief.

 Jewish, Jewish, Everywhere, & not a drop to drink
It is a fact that Hebrew is the language of the Hebrew BIBLE and the Hebrew Bible was written in one Hebrew language (except for the brief sections in Aramaic which is also the language of the Zohar and Talmud).
But Hebrew is not purely the realm of Judaism; it is also the realm of Samaritans, Christians and Abrahamic religion as a whole, and also secular Canaanite languages studies.
It is part of the Afro-Asiatic group of languages and is related to Hamitic (North African languages) and Semitic (languages such as Arabic and Hebrew).

 Hebrew at Dartmouth/FAQ
The use of the name Ivrit for Modern Hebrew was in fact a loud political statement, to the effect that Hebrew was no longer going to be a holy language of the synagogue and Cheder, but a secular modern language.
Ivrit came to be a common name for the Hebrew language in the Middle Ages -- we don't know why -- but actually, most Jews in Eastern Europe 100 years ago would have called Hebrew not Ivrit but Loshn Koydesh ('the holy tongue').
It wasn't that all Hebrew speakers were wiped out, although no doubt the main center of spoken Hebrew, Judea, was decimated by the Romans.

 Cannabis Culture Forums: Abbracadabra as a MOD?!?!
The Sephardim are descendants of the Jews who since antiquity had lived in Spain (in Hebrew Sepharad) until they were expelled at the end of the fifteenth century and settled in the countries bordering the Mediterranean, the Balkans, and to a lesser extent in Western Europe.
A few Jewish leaders took excerpts from the Bible and interpreted them to mean that God designated them as "Chosen People." But, isn't it odd that it is not the religious Jews who claim to be "God's Chosen People." It is the atheistic non-believing Jews who claim that honor.
Judaism is a religion; but Zionism is a political movement started mainly by East European (Ashkenazi) Jews who for centuries have been the main force behind communism and socialism.

All of us know about three of these: Beth/Veth, Kaf/Khaf, Pe/Fe (and according to present-day Ashkenazi tradition the fourth is Tav/Sav, which we shall presently discuss).
If the truth be told, I welcomed the letter received by YOUR JERUSALEM with regard to the transliteration of Hebrew words as they appear in my articles.
Unfortunately the Sepharadim, rather than maintaining that which is correct in their tradition and thus influencing their brothers, have instead learnt the mistaken pronunciation..." (Or Tora, Tamuz 5732).

 Judeo-Arabic languages - Enpsychlopedia
The Judeo-Arabic languages are a collection of Arabic dialects spoken by Jews living or formerly living in Arabic-speaking countries; the term also refers to more or less classical Arabic written in the Hebrew script, particularly in the Middle Ages.
They wrote—sometimes in their dialects, sometimes in a more Classical style—in a mildly adapted Hebrew script (rather than using Arabic script), often including consonant dots from the Arabic alphabet to accommodate phonemes that did not exist in the Hebrew alphabet.
Only later were they translated into medieval Hebrew so that they could be read by the Ashkenazic Jews of Europe.

 Broadmining: Hebrew
Though important in some Christian theologies, the distinction is not recognized by the Jews themselves who call themselves Hebrew in Hebrew.
The term Hebrew is sometimes used by certain Christian groups to distinguish the Jews in ancient times (before the birth of Jesus) from Jews that lived afterward.
Thus, to tell some Jews they are not the same as the Hebrews is likely to be offensive.

Zarphatic was written using a variant of the Hebrew alphabet, and first appeared in the 11
The word Zarphatic comes from the Hebrew name for France, Tzarfat (צ& name for the Phoenician city of Sarepta.
One feature of Zarphatic spelling, that sets it apart from most other Indo-European Jewish languages, is that to represent vowel sounds, rather than using Hebrew letters with no matching phonemes in the language, it instead made extensive use of the Tiberian system of nikkudot to indicate the full range of Old French vowels.
