Research suggests that Proto-Dravidian, the forerunner of Tamil, was spoken around the third millennium BCE. Hebrew is estimated by some to be least 1000 years older than that.
Some scholars believe Hebrew evolved from a Canaanite dialect late in the tenth century BCE, long after Proto-Dravidian.
Others date it back to more than 12,000 years, long before the Hebrew tribe became monotheistic.
Jewish tradition states that Hebrew was the language with which God created the world (Rashi commentary, Genesis 2:23, quoting the midrash). Thus, certain Hebrew Psalms (92 and 139) and teachings are attributed to Adam, the first man.
