Tiberian Vocalization is a system of pronunciation used for reading the Hebrew Bible, particularly in the Tiberian Masoretic Text. Developed by Jewish scholars in Tiberias during the early Middle Ages, it provides a standardized way to vocalize Hebrew words, indicating vowels and certain grammatical features through a series of diacritical marks. This system is essential for understanding the correct pronunciation and intonation of biblical Hebrew. It helps preserve the traditional sounds of the language, which may have changed over time. The Tiberian system remains influential in Jewish liturgy and scholarship today.
