description of book The Magerman Edition. Translated by Rabbi Jonathan Sacks, Rabbi Tzvi Hersh Weinreb, and others. The Hebrew Bible in a new English translation. The new English Koren Tanakh – Magerman Edition features the masterful translations by Rabbi Jonathan Sacks, zt”l, of the Torah and Psalms, and by Rabbi Dr. Tzvi Hersh Weinreb of portions of Nevi’im (Prophets) and Ketuvim (Writings). The English Koren Tanakh accurately conveys the sacred majesty of the original Hebrew in a readable and elegant English translation for the modern reader. Readers will experience a Tanakh which whispers the tonality of the Hebrew original and maintains the rhythmic beauty of its poetry and prose, both clearly presented, not only in the words but also in the formatting of the texts upon the pages. It includes simple notes to aid comprehension of words and names, and features extensive, full-color reference material including genealogies, timelines, maps, charts, archaeological artifacts, and more. Proper names have been transliterated (Yaakov, not Jacob; Moshe, not Moses) to convey the authenticity of the Hebrew original. Large (6.4 x 9.2 inches), Hardcover with thumb tabs.
