FEW VERSION OF THE BIBLE
Now Being Made Under the Aus

now Being Made Under the Aus
pieces of American Jews.
A new translation of the scriptures
Is being prepared under the joint aus
pices Of the Jewish Publication so
ciety Of America and the Central Con-
ference OF America Rabbls, says the
New York Sun. In response to many
Inquiries they have issued a statement
Of the methods they propose to FOL
low.
According to the statement. he new
translation aims at conserving tho
form which the scriptures have as
sumed in the English tongue through
the two great historical versions-the
authorized Of 1911 and the revised OF
1SS4-but In a more particular man
ner and above all 1t purposes to adhere
faithfully to the form In which the
synagogue has handed down the orig
inal text.
From the point Of view of its hdel-
ity to the English versions 1t does no
lay claim to being a new translation,
but merely a revision Of Its predeces-
sors. 1t is an interesting fact in the
history Of Bible TRANSACTIONS that once
9 translation had been put forth there
was little attempt at creating In tHaf
particular tongue an absolutely novel
translation; the old translation was
always subjected to revision.
Thus Aquila and Symmachus and
Theodotion revised the older Greek
translation OF the seventy, the vulGate
represents a rerasting of the old Latin
translation a%ntedatIng Jerome, n
cur own authorized version was a re-
vision of Tyndale's version and OF
others. All TRANSACTIONS seem to a
In the sacredness Of the original; they
become sacred through the religious
associations.
"In the case Of the older English
version it is well known how it has
become an English classic, part and
parcel OF the great English literature;
Its phraseology has entered the very
English language and cannot be sew
cred therefrom with impunity. Hence
it is that the new translation Will not
attempt to discard familiar phrases
unless in the judgment of the editors
they fail to do justice to the Hebrew
original. Even in such cases the IA
miliar renderings will be recorded In
the margin.
"Nor will there be any attempt at
undermining the diction. Biblical
English has a ring and a force which
up-to-date language cannot equal.
The quaintness of the English Bible is
a charm that must not be sacrificed to
an exaggerated desire for intelligibil.
ity. The errors Of translation mus
at all hazards be corrected; absolute
ly unintelligible or misleading words
must be discarded, but care must be
taken to preserve the beauty Of the
biblical English, for the English Bible
as a classic is dear to all English
speaking men, Jews or Christians"

that proved to have an exit in the

Of the hole to the other at great speed,
and the man was bobbing In and out

comrades shout, and found time be-
fore his next brief disappearance to
shout back
"'Danged nincompoop, yerself !!
