From the supplier: Religion and the Hebrew Bible significantly influence the evolution of Hebrew literature and language. Despite the low number of native Hebrew speakers, the use of Hebrew in formal religious worships is one of the main reasons for the strong influence of the language on Jewish life. The role of religion in the language is seen in the abundance of religious terms in day-to-day use of the language. Moreover, modern writers and poets have also incorporated the Hebrew language in their works.
