The Role of Hebrew In Christian Traditions

Writer's picture: Guy Ben MosheGuy Ben Moshe

The Hebrew language plays a significant role in Christian traditions, as it is the language spoken by Jesus and the early Christian community. Many of the texts that make up the Christian Bible, including the Old Testament (The Tanakh תנך), were originally written in Hebrew. Even the New Testament contains many Hebrew words and phrases, as well as references to Hebrew customs and traditions.



One of the most important ways that Hebrew is used in Christian traditions is through the study of the Hebrew Bible, also known as the Old Testament.


For centuries, Christians have studied the Hebrew Bible in order to gain a deeper understanding of the history, culture, and theology of the early Jewish people. They also did it to gain a deeper understanding of the Biblical texts and their original meaning.

This study has been an important part of Christian theology and has helped shape the beliefs and practices of many Christians.


Another way that Hebrew is used in Christian traditions is through the use of Hebrew words and phrases in Christian liturgy. Many of the prayers and hymns used in Christian worship contain Hebrew words and phrases, such as the word "Amen - אמן" and the phrase "Hallelujah - הללויה". These words and phrases have been passed down through the generations and have become an important part of Christian worship.


In conclusion, the Hebrew language plays a vital role in Christian traditions. From the study of the Hebrew Bible to the use of Hebrew words and phrases in Christian liturgy, Hebrew has helped shape the beliefs and practices of Christians for centuries. Additionally, the study of Hebrew language itself has been an important part of Christian theology and has helped deepen the understanding of biblical texts.
