Join Rabba Dr. Lindsey Taylor-Guthartz for a fascinating 3-part series exploring how Jews have translated and transmitted the Tanakh through the ages. From the Dead Sea Scrolls to the Septuagint (the 2,000-year-old Greek translation by Jews in Egypt) and the Targums (the Aramaic “translations” that influenced Rashi and merge into midrash), we’ll uncover the complex history of how the Hebrew text reached us and examine why translation matters. Sessions include: March 6 – Why does Tanakh translation matter, and how did it arrive in its current shape? March 20 – The Septuagint: Is translation divinely aided or a national curse? March 27 – The Targums: When is a translation not a translation? Don’t miss this journey through the history, complexity, and significance of Tanakh translation!
