The Making of the Modern Jewish Bible explains how Jewish translators, commentators, and scholars made the Bible a keystone of Jewish life in Germany, Israel and America. Levenson argues that German Jews created a religious Bible, Israeli Jews a national Bible, and American Jews an ethnic one. In each site, scholars wrestled withthe demands of the non-Jewish environment and their own indigenous traditions, trying to balance fidelity and independence from the commentaries of the rabbinic and medieval world. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 630 00 Bible.|pOld Testament.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/n79054379|lGermany|xCriticism, interpretation, etc., Jewish. 630 00 Bible.|pOld Testament|xCriticism, interpretation, etc., Jewish|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85013771 |zIsrael.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n79003285- 781 630 00 Bible.|pOld Testament|xCriticism, interpretation, etc., Jewish|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85013771 |zUnited States.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n78095330-781 630 7 Bible.|pOld Testament.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast /1808092 651 7 Israel.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204236 651 7 United States.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204155 655 4 Electronic resource. 720 Levenson, Alan T. 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=375020|zOnline eBook.
