Between
1780
and
1937,
Jews
in
Germany
produced
numerous
new
translations
of
the
Hebrew
Bible
into
German.
Intended
for
Jews
who
were
trilingual,
reading
Yiddish,
Hebrew,
and
German,
they
were
meant
less
for
religious
use
than
to
promote
educational
and
cultural
goals.
Not
only
did
translations
give
Jews
vernacular
access
to
their
scripture
without
Christian
intervention,
but
they
also
helped
showcase
the
Hebrew
Bible
as
a
work
of
literature
and
the
foundational
text
of
modern
Jewish
identity.This
book
is
the
first
in
English
to
offer
a
close
analysis
of
German
Jewish
translations
as
part
of
a
larger
cultural
project.
Looking
at
four
distinct
waves
of
translations,
Abigail
Gillman
juxtaposes
translations
within
each
that
sought
to
achieve
similar
goals
through
differing
means.
As
she
details
the
history
of
successive
translations,
we
gain
new
insight
into
the
opportunities
and
problems
the
Bible
posed
for
different
generations
and
gain
a
new
perspective
on
modern
German
Jewish history.
