Do you have suggestions for people to internalize the
languages? I'll have to check out the CD you
mentioned.
I read from the Hebrew Bible every day (and once in a
while some from Qumran and the Mishnah). I also read
from "the" Septuagint and the Greek NT each day (and
sometimes from the Apostolic Fathers, Josephus, or
Philo).
There is also no one nearby to practice speaking the
languages in order to try to develop that facility.
(There's also no one around with whom to practice
conversing in French or German!)
