		In Modern Hebrew points are rarely used - mainly for children in their first years in school and when a precise pronunciation of a new or "foreign" word is needed.
		In Biblical Hebrew and Biblical Literature courses, where "Pointed" text may be essential for full comprehension of the meaning the technique will be explained in more details and the grammar rules regulating it would be covered as needed.

	Awilum.com » Traces of Linguistic Development in Biblical Hebrew
		Eskhult asserts that there are clear points of linguistic development in biblical Hebrew and that these developments indicate two separate time periods in which the Old Testament was written.
		Therefore, traces of the development of the language remain in the text and allow us to assign broad, relative dates to texts Old Testament texts.
		The which ever conclusion you come to will largely depend upon your presuppositions, but I think there is evidence from the limited inscriptional evidence to show that “early” and “late” Hebrew were used in different time periods that correspond to the “pre-” and “post-exilic” periods.
