Description

Most Biblical translations today aim to provide language as close to the original as possible. Yet historically, Jews have been willing to paraphrase and expand into midrash within translation. Join us at the Schubach Library & Study Center on Sunday, October 30 for a thrilling lecture on the Targum, an Aramaic translation of the Psalms, as we peek into a delightful reimagination of these familiar sacred prayers.
