Question For Ya'aqub And Ewan

[*Albion*]

Shlama my friends,

I just purchased 'A Hebrew New Covenant of the Aramaic Peshitta'.

It hasn't gotten here yet, but I'm way excited that I finally got a copy (for $25.00 too!!).

I bought these books and tapes from Amazon.com to learn Sephardic (Modern???) Hebrew with:

And more importantly these:

I was wondering if either of you have ever read these books, and if so, do you think that I can learn enough Modern Hebrew to read The Hebrew New Covenant from The Aramaic Peshitta?

And here's one more learning Hebrew book that I want too:

Thank you both for taking the time to answer my questions here, I appreciate you both helping me.

Ewan, is "MacLeod" pronounced "McCloud"? Just wondering.
