This article has a major problem with neutrality. For example this sentence "The downward trend continued in the first half of the 19th century; Jewish literature became less and less a subject of investigation by Christians; and when it was studied it was generally for the purpose of forging weapons against the people whose literature it was." Not only is it uncited but also claims to know the motivation of most Christian Hebraists i.e. to use Hebrew as "a weapon" against Jewish people. Wow, not even close to neutral! Please guys, let's write articles that don't keep our own personal feelings in check. If you are going to say that "most" Christians study Hebrew simply to have some ammunition against Jews (which is totally unfounded) you better have some pretty good citations linked to it.

The text supplied comes from the Jewish Encyclopedia - which comes with its own biases!!! -- MacRusgail 21:09, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
I think the list should be moved to List of Christian Hebraists or should be struck altogether because of the existing Category:Christian Hebraists. -- Flex ( talk| contribs) 22:18, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
This article has been tagged as disputed for over a year. Are there still issues, or can we remove the tag? -- El on ka 23:43, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
I removed today an ill-founded proposal to merge this article into Hebraist. Christian Hebraism is a serious topic; particularly in the 16/17th centuries when Christian Hebraists were of immense importance to the political development of Europe. This article as it stands is not terrible, although it stands in desparate need of major expansion and the attention of an expert. The article Hebraist is both paltry and a little strange.

This page should really be overhauled by comparison with this Jewish Virtual Library page. I don't mean copy it across; but it seems clear that accepting its decisions about which Hebraists to include or omit is going to be a good idea; and it gives many more clues as to identity and referencing than the old JE list. Charles Matthews ( talk) 21:13, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
Seeing that there was a separate heading for "Female Christian Hebraists", I changed the heading of the first list from simply "List of Christian Hebraists" to "List of male Christian Hebraists" since if there are two lists, they should be accurately labeled.
Is there any good reason for having two separate lists? If there's a consensus or at least no objection, in about a week I'll change to just one list. Thank you. SchreiberBike ( talk) 06:42, 6 May 2013 (UTC)
