JPS Hebrew-English TANAKH Paperback – 17 July 2003

Some time ago, I purchased the larger version of this book, but found it was just to large to bring anywhere.So I bought this small pocket version.It is the same high quality as the larger version, it is the same book but with smaller print.Some might find the print too small, but I had no such issues, the Hebrew print though is a little too small.But its as good as the larger version, and much more portable.

Very good

Exactly as described. Smaller than I thought, but everything is there. Very interesting read and for reference.

Very nice book lots to learn

In attempting to learn Biblical Hebrew one has found that the JPS is a good translationfor the English not surprisingly being the Jewish Publication Society. There is a goodcorrelation between the English and the Hebrew text per verse. In addition to this,the verse numbering for some Hebrew texts are different to English Bible verse numbering.In respect of the latter the JPS Tanakh is more useful because the Hebrew and Englishverse numbers exactly correlate whereas they do not in some other versions of parallelHebrew English versions. In all then its easier to follow the English and Hebrew togetherwith this translation.The advertising in some places indicates small Hebrew text and while readableis maybe hard to read from a distance (maybe my personal eyesight). Owing to thevolume of text included in the pocket version it may well be small in face profilebut it then results in a thicker book i.e it is not a thin paperback.

A little bigger than expected, very nice quality

Best features: The size. There is also a nice page at the front where it asks 'Who does this Bible belong to'. Would make an excellent gift for someone.I've really enjoyed this little yet amazing Tanakh and would definitely recommend it.For the price, it is an absolute bargain for jew or non jew alike.

Thank you thank you just what i want im verg blessed and happy with my bible thank you so its perfect to go with my everywhere on my travels
