HEBREW PREPOSITIONS
HEBREW DATABASE

 

A Preposition is a word which connects a noun or pronoun with a verb, an adjective, or another noun or pronoun.  The noun or pronoun which follows the preposition is in the object case, and is said to be governed by the preposition.

The Inseparable Prepositions

There are three prepositions in Hebrew that have no existence as separate words but, like the definite article, they attach themselves, as prefixes, to the words they govern.  They are therefore called Inseparable Prepositions
