The Sound of Ancient Hebrew

This is a reading of Exodus 15 1-18, known as the “Song of the Sea,” as it might have sounded around 900 BCE. Drawing from scholarly linguistic consensus, I have tried to reconstruct the closest pronunciation of pre-exilic Hebrew as possible, though not exact.

NOTE: While the tetronamogram YHWH would have been read aloud at this time in history, I will be replacing it with the word “Adonai” out of respect for rabbinic Jewish tradition.
