Hebraistic

/ˌhiːbreɪˈɪstɪk/ adjective

Definition

Relating to or characteristic of Hebrew language, culture, or the scholars who study it; showing Hebrew influence or style.

Etymology

From 'Hebraist' plus the adjectival suffix '-ic.' This compounds the noun 'Hebraist' with the Greek suffix '-ikos' to create an adjective meaning 'of or relating to Hebraists or Hebraism.'
