Thanks so much I have tried to learn Hebrew and I get frustrated. When I listened to you all the things you said is how I feel and struggle with. Thank you so much. I also want to learn Hebrew for the same reasons. May we both succeed in this.

The resource that was most helpful to me was Mango. Mango is free through most libraries, and they have over 70 languages, including Biblical Hebrew. The way the color code, and start at Genesis 1:1 and move on, while including review of what I previously learned made Mango the best foreign language learning platform I have come across. http://mangolanguages.com/libraries/find-mango/
Also, to learn the Hebrew alphabet, I really liked a different app called Drops. You only get 5 minutes a day for free, which at first I thought was a downside (you can also earn free minutes in various ways) but I found it was the perfect amount to not overload you. On the days when I had racked up bonused up to 20 minutes, I did not retain as much as I did with my 5 minutes every day. https://drops.app.link/5Bi2Ytra7D
