Onkelos on the Torah: Understanding the Bible Text Deuteronomy
Unfortunately, Onkelos is not always appreciated as the great interpreter he was; Indeed, every translator is also an interpreter, but no translation of the Bible has the depth and authority that comes with the interpretation of Onkelos. We are all greatly indebted to Rabbi Wagner and Rabbi Drazin for having opened up Onkelos to the English reading public. --Rabbi Shlomo Riskin, Chief Rabbi of Efrat, Dean of Ohr Torah InstiturionsAt last, the English speaking world will be able to understand why our Sages mandated the weekly reading of Onkelos and why it is imperative for us today to understand Torah through the eyes of the most accepted and popular translator of the Bible in Jewish history. --Rabbi Yona Metzger, Chief Rabbi of IsraelIt is a pleasure to recommend with enthusiasm this new volume… a historic translation which is more exegesis than ordinary translation. Rabbis Drazin and Wagner have added an important volume for all those who want to take Torah seriously. --Rabbi Dr. Norman Lamm, President Yeshiva University
