It has been reworked from scratch by an international and interdenominational team of scholars. The textual basis of the new edition is the oldest fully preserved manuscript of the Hebrew Bible, known as the Codex Leningradensis.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eGenesis\u003c\/i\u003e, edited by Abraham Tal (Tel Aviv University), is volume one of the complete \u003ci\u003eBHQ\u003c\/i\u003e series.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt the beginning of each volume, there is a table of accents, a glossary for the Masorah parva, a list of the definitions and abbreviations used to characterize the readings, and a useful sample page that illustrates the features of the layout. Each volume ends with a detailed yet succinct discussion of the textual witnesses for each biblical book that contains a wealth of helpful information, and the manuscripts and critical editions of the texts are clearly annotated.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe text-critical apparatus has been completely redesigned in this edition, and the material presented has been greatly expanded. All significant variants from the Qumran texts are now listed in full. For the first time, the edition also contains a detailed commentary section that makes academic work easier. It offers an introduction to each biblical book in which the relevant textual witnesses are characterized and their use in the critical apparatus is explained.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eParticularly practical: The commentary section not only contains numerous in-depth comments on individual text-critical questions, but also a translation of the large masorah and explanations of the small masorah. Both the text-critical apparatus and the commentary section are written in English.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAt a glance:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe text of the Leningrad Codex, corrected from new color photographs of the codex\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Masorah magna and Masorah parva from the Leningrad Codex\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA single apparatus with all relevant textual variants at the bottom of the page\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll available pre-Tiberian witnesses for each textual case are noted\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAt least two other Tiberian codices are collated for each book\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Qumran and Judean Desert fragments are collated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtensive commentary\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eOther volumes in the series:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e9781683074038 \/ Vol 3: \u003ci\u003eLeviticus\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e9781598561982 \/ Vol 5: \u003ci\u003eDeuteronomy\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e9781598563870 \/ Vol 7: \u003ci\u003eJudges\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e9781598563863 \/ Vol 13: \u003ci\u003eThe Twelve Minor Prophets\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e9783438052766 \/ Vol 16: \u003ci\u003eJob\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e9781598563092 \/ Vol 17: \u003ci\u003eProverbs\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e9781598561821 \/ Vol 18: \u003ci\u003eGeneral Introduction and Megilloth\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e9781598561838 \/ Vol 20: \u003ci\u003eEzra and Nehemiah\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbraham Tal\u003c\/b\u003e is Professor Emeritus in the Department of Hebrew Language at Tel-Aviv University; he has also served as a visiting professor at various institutions in the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, and Australia.
