Zelhar:
This is not how modern and biblical Hebrew relate to each other. The vast majority of biblical words are still commonly used words of modern Hebrew. The grammar is almost the same except for very few things that don't really affect comprehension for a native hebrew speaker.

Technically, they are different stages of the same language. Practically, they are altogether different languages.
