The Living Torah is a 1981 translation of the Torah by Rabbi Aryeh Kaplan , published by Moznaim publishers. It was and remains a highly popular translation, and was reissued in a Hebrew English version with haftarot for synagogue use. Rabbi Kaplan had the following goals for his translation, which were arguably absent from previous English translations Make it clear and readable Keep it close to the basic meaning peshat of the text in many places, but in other places translated it to be in accord with post biblical Rabbinical literature rabbinic commentary and Jewish codes of law. Keeping it faithful to Orthodox Judaism Orthodox Jewish tradition Provide useful notes, a table of contents, illustrations, and a comprehensive index. Rabbi Kaplan s translation has been criticised in some circles for mis translating the text. The dispute comes about because he consciously attempted not to present a straight translation of the text, but rather interspersed the translation with later rabbinic commentary and Jewish law. However, this work has be hailed as one of the best English translations of the Torah, next to Rabbi Hirsch s translation, because of his inclusion of the rabbinic elucidation of the text. Rabbi Chaim Pinchas Sheinberg , a prominent legal decider for the Orthodox community, is reported to have said that the translation is so good that one can fulfil the obligatory weekly reading of the Torah twice in Hebrew and once with translation usually Aramaic called Shnayim mikra ve echad targum Shnei Mikra vEchad Targum with this targum translation if one is not able to read the Aramaic translation of Onkelos usually printed next to the Torah s words in many modern printings. The Living Nach The Living Torah was later supplemented by The Living Nach on Nevi im two volumes The Early Prophets and The Latter Prophets and Ketuvim Sacred Writings in one volume . These were prepared posthumously following Rabbi Kaplan s format by others including Yaakov Elman. See also Jewi ... more details

refimprove date June 2009 Megadim lang he is a Hebrew language journal about the Hebrew Bible . It is published by the Herzog College , an affiliate of Yeshivat Har Etzion , two or three times a year. Along with Beit Mikra , it is one of the few journals that deal almost exclusively with analysis of the Tanakh . Megadim was first published around 1986. More than 45 issues were published by 2009. Some of the writers and editors for Megadim are Dr. Yosef Ofer and Dr. Mordechai Sabato from Bar Ilan University Dr. Shmuel Wygoda a student of Emmanuel Levinas Rabbi Yoel bin Nun , Rabbi Yaaqov Medan , and other notable members of the religious Zionism movement. The writers for Megadim include analysts of the Bible, lecturers at colleges, and advanced students, especially from Yeshivat Har Etzion and Herzog College. The guiding principle of Megadim is to maintain the balance between an academic standard on the one hand, and adherence to the faith of its intelligent religious Jewish audience on the other hand. Therefore, the most popular topics among the articles are literary analyses of the Bible and of Jewish commentators, which enable the adoption of scholarly approaches without needing to deal with loaded issues such as the Documentary Hypothesis or the origins of Christianity . The articles in Megadim are strictly peer review ed before publication in order to maintain high standards. One of the weaknesses of the journal is an insufficient reliance on sources written in languages other than Hebrew.
