A History of Hebrew Part 21: Ancient Translations

————— Jeff A. Benner’s Websites Ancient Hebrew Research Center https://ancient-hebrew.org/ Excavating the Bible https://excavatingthebible.com/ Mechanical Translation Project https://mechanical-translation.org/ ————— As the Jewish people began to spread out beyond Israel, they adopted the language of their new neighbors. This necessitated the need for translations of the Bible in their new languages in order for them to continue reading the Bible. While there have been many translations of the Hebrew Bible into many different languages, the three most widely used are the Latin, Aramaic and Greek. Of the many Aramaic translations of the Hebrew Bible, there are three principle ones. Targum Onkelos is an Aramaic translation of the first five books of the Bible. It was written in the 1st C CE by Onkelos, a Roman convert to Judaism. Targum Jonathon is an Aramaic translation of the Prophets. It was written in the 1st C BCE by Jonathon Ben Uziel, a student of Hillel the Elder, the famous Jewish teacher and religious leader. The Peshitta is an Aramaic translation of the entire Hebrew Bible that was written around the 2nd C. CE. The Peshitta also includes an Aramaic New Testament that was written around the 5th C. CE. The Septuagint is a Greek translation of the first five books of the Hebrew Bible, the Torah, written by Jewish scholars in the 3rd C. BCE. The remainder of the Hebrew Bible, the writings and the prophets were translated by unknown translators between the 2nd and 1st Centuries BCE. The Latin Vulgate, consisting of the Hebrew Bible as well as the New Testament, was written by Jerome, a Christian priest and apologist, in the 5th C. CE. ___________________ Narration: Jeff A.
