These paraphrases, long treasured by scholars, offer a unique window into the understanding and interpretation of scripture in the first centuries of the Common Era. The author meticulously translates and analyzes two prominent Targums on the Pentateuch, comparing their distinct styles and exploring the insights they offer. One adheres closely to the Hebrew text, providing a valuable resource for understanding the original language and its nuances. The other, more expansive paraphrase, weaves in captivating Jewish traditions and legends, offering a glimpse into the cultural and historical context of the time. Through detailed examination of these Targums, the book sheds light on the development of Jewish thought and interpretation, revealing how ancient scholars grappled with complex theological concepts and sought to make scripture accessible to the wider community. Ultimately, this book offers a deeper appreciation for the enduring legacy of the Targums and their contribution to our understanding of the Hebrew Bible and its timeless message.

Editio Princeps extrêmement rare des trois parties parues séparément en hébreu de la paraphrase ("Targum") des douze petits prophètes, due au célèbre rabbin Jonathan Ben Uzziel. Il semble avoir vécu dans le premier ou le deuxième siècle de l'ère chrétienne et il était très réputé pour son savoir. "Les Juifs rapportent que pendant qu'il composait le "Targum" Dieu avait permis, pour que rien ne le detournat de son uvre, que tout oiseau qui volait et toute mouche qui se posait sur son papyrus, fussent à l'instant consumés par le feu du ciel" (Larousse). Cette édition du texte original a été donnée, avec des notes et commentaires, par le savant hébraïsant Jean Le Mercier (mort en 1570) élève de Vatable et son successeur à la chaire d'Hébreu au Collège Royal. Les trois parties de cet ouvrage, furent publiés séparément par Charles Estienne et se trouvent difficilement, surtout réunies. Renouard s'exprime ainsi à leur sujet: "J'ai rapporté les trois intitulés afin que, rencontrant séparément l'un ou l'autre de ces trois rares volumes, on sache positivement ce que l'on devrait encore avoir pour compléter le recueil". 4).

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Targum Jonathan, otherwise referred to as Targum Yonasan/Yonatan, is the official eastern (Babylonian) targum to the Nevi'im. Its early origins, however, are western (i.e. from the Land of Israel), and the Talmudic tradition attributes its authorship to Jonathan ben Uzziel. Its overall style is very similar to that of Targum Onkelos, though at times it seems to be a looser paraphrase. The original language of Targum Jonathan is Aramaic. This edition is English. In Talmudic times (and to this day in Yemenite Jewish communities) Targum Jonathan was read as a verse-by-verse translation alternatively with the Hebrew verses of the haftarah in the synagogue. Thus, when the Talmud states that "a person should complete his portions of scripture along with the community, reading the scripture twice and the targum once" (Berakhot 8a-b), the passage may be taken to refer to Targum Jonathan (as well as to Targum Onkelos on the Torah). Targum Pseudo-Jonathan is a western targum (translation) of the Torah (Pentateuch) from the land of Israel (as opposed to the eastern Babylonian Targum Onkelos). Its correct title was originally Targum Yerushalmi (Jerusalem Targum), which is how it was known in medieval times. But because of a printer's mistake it was later labeled Targum Jonathan, in reference to Jonathan ben Uzziel. Some editions of the Pentateuch continue to call it Targum Jonathan to this day. Most scholars refer to the text as Targum Pseudo-Jonathan, or with the acronym TPsJ. The Talmud relates that Yonatan ben Uziel, a student of Hillel, fashioned an Aramaic translation of the Prophets (Megillah 3a). It makes no mention of any translation by him of the Torah. So all scholars agree that this Targum is not due to Yonatan ben Uziel. Indeed, de Rossi (16th century) reports that he saw two very similar complete Targumim to the Torah, one called Targum Yonatan Ben Uziel and the other called Targum Yerushalmi. A standard explanation is that the original title of this work was Targum Yerushalmi, which was abbreviated to (TY), and these initials were then incorrectly expanded to Targum Yonatan which was then further incorrectly expanded to Targum Yonatan ben Uziel. For these reasons, scholars call it "Targum Pseudo-Jonathan". The first of these manuscripts cited by de Rossi is thought to have been the basis of the first printing in Venice (1591) where the false title Targum Yonatan ben Uziel is used. The second manuscript - the only known one to still exist - is in the British Museum and was published by Ginsburger in 1903. This targum is more than a mere translation. It includes much Aggadic material collected from various sources as late as the Midrash Rabbah as well as earlier material from the Talmud. So it is a combination of a commentary and a translation. In the portions where it is pure translation, it often agrees with the Targum Onkelos. The date of its composition is disputed. The majority opinion, on the basis of much internal evidence, is that it cannot date from before the Arab conquest of the Middle East despite incorporating some older material. For example, Ishmael's wife is called by the legendary Arabic name Fatimah. Gottlieb puts the time of composition toward the end of the 8th century. On the other hand, since the Geonim are unfamiliar with it, and Rashi does not mention it, Rieder puts the composition some time after Rashi, perhaps during the period of the crusades. On any view, it cannot have been composed later than the early 14th century, as it is referred to repeatedly by Rabbi Menahem Recanati (1250-1310) in his Perush 'Al ha-Torah. An analysis of Targum Pseudo-Jonathan has been published recently by Beverly Mortensen, who dates it to the 4th century and regards it as a manual for kohanim (priests).
