Robert Alter's new translation

Recommended Posts

I would recommend Robert Alter’s The Hebrew Bible: A Translation with Commentary, 3 vols. (W. W. Norton, 2018) as an addition to the Accordance collection. His insights into classical Hebrew diction and the literary features of the text — reflected in the translation itself, in his introductions to the translation as a whole and to individual books, and in his accompanying notes/commentary — to be quite illuminating.

Sadly, we've just been informed that Robert Alter's publisher doesn't license the rights to his works via electronic publishers.
