Description
The Hebrew-English Tanakh: The traditional Hebrew text and the new JPS translation - Student Edition features the oldest-known complete Hebrew version of the Holy Scriptures, side by side with a renowned English translation. This well-designed format allows for easy reading, with clear type and a two-column layout that enables readers to move quickly between the two languages. The Hebrew text is based on the Leningrad Codex, a manuscript compiled by Aaron ben Moses ben Asher in the 10th century. This edition adapts the latest BHS edition of the Leningrad text, correcting errors and providing modern paragraphing. The English text is a slightly updated version of the acclaimed 1985 JPS translation, reflecting the biblical spirit and language in a way that is both faithful to the original and accessible to readers today. This edition includes an informative preface that discusses the history of Bible translation, focusing on the latest JPS English translation of the Holy Scriptures. The result of a 30-year interdenominational collaboration of eminent Jewish Bible scholars, this edition is a valuable resource for anyone studying the Hebrew Bible.
