Bible Note: [From Wikipedia in relation to "kalos" posting above referencing the "Stone Edition"] ArtScroll Tanach series Mesorah Publications is an Orthodox Jewish publisher of Bible translations, rabbinic literature and Jewish prayerbooks. Their Stone Edition of the Chumash (Torah) and Stone Edition of the Tanach (also called the ArtScroll Tanakh) have become very popular in the Orthodox Jewish community, and are in use by some non-Orthodox Jews as well. It is considered by many Orthodox Jews to be the best of the English translations.[citation needed] Their translations have been criticised by a few Modern Orthodox scholars, e.g. B. Barry Levy, and by non-Orthodox scholars as mis-translating the text. This dispute comes about because, it is claimed, the editors at Mesorah Publications consciously attempted not to present a literal translation of the text, but rather to smooth out differences between the plain meaning of the text and later interpretations of the text by medieval biblical commentators such as Rashi. |
