Synopsis:
Here, for the first time in English, Benyamim Tsedaka presents the Samaritan version of the Pentateuch, a text of growing interest and importance for biblical studies. Tsedakas expert English translation is presented parallel to the more familiar Masoretic text, a format that highlights the more than six thousand differences between the Samaritan and Masoretic versions. Extensive margin notes provide further help and explanation, and detailed indices tie the Samaritan Torah to the Septuagint versions and the Dead Sea Scroll texts.
About the Author: Benyamim Tsedaka is head of the A.B. Institute of Samaritan Studies in Holon, Israel, and founding editor of a biweekly Samaritan newsmagazine published in four languages.
