Description:
From the recipient of the National Jewish Book Award for Lifetime Achievement, this is anaccount of the art of translating the Hebrew Bible into English.
In this brief book, award-winning biblical translator Robert Alter offers a personal and passionate account of what he learned about the art of Bible translation during the two decades he spent completing his own English version of the Hebrew Bible. Showing why the Bible and its meaning can be brought to life in English only by re-creating the subtle and powerful literary style of the original text, Alter discusses the principal aspects of biblical Hebrew that any translator should try to reproduce: word choice, syntax, word play and sound play, rhythm, and dialogue. In the process, he provides an illuminating and accessible introduction to biblical style that also offers insights about the art of translation far beyond the Bible.
'Hugely entertaining and irreverent.' — Adam Gopnik,New Yorker
'Alter sets out the principles that govern his translation while also delivering his pointed commentary on almost all other modern versions...This thrashing is long overdue and mightily refreshing.' — Eric Ormsby,Wall Street Journal
'A short masterclass in how to appreciate biblical language.' — Simon Rocker,Jewish Chronicle
'An essential companion volume to [Alter's] own translations.' — Jonathan Kirsch,Jewish Journal
'A refreshing look into the complex work of translating the Bible.' —Publishers Weekly

Comfortable and Classic Dress Shoes That Look Great All Day
Size: 12, Color: Cognac
These dress shoes have been a great addition to my wardrobe. Right out of the box, they felt comfortable thanks to the cushioned foam insole. I can wear them for long days at work or events without my feet feeling sore, which is something I really appreciate.
The faux leather upper looks polished and well-made. The cap-toe design and subtle contrast stitching give the shoes a classic, professional appearance that pairs perfectly with dress pants or a suit. They have a clean, timeless style that never feels outdated.
The fit is true to size, and the lace-up closure provides a secure and adjustable fit. I also like the stability of the stacked heel and the non-slip sole, which gives me confidence when walking on different surfaces.
Overall, these shoes deliver both comfort and style. They look sharp, feel supportive, and hold up well with regular use. I am very happy with this purchase and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, classic dress shoes.
