"What is a holiday like #Purim doing on the #Jewish calendar? What is a #book like #Esther doing in the #Tanakh? Was the holiday really established the way that the book of Esther describes, following intrigue at the #Persian court and the last minute intervention of a Jewish queen that saved her people from massacre? (And let’s not forget the massacre of Persians that happens instead.)

The story itself belongs to a genre that stretches back to #Joseph’s time in #Egypt, that of the Jewish courtier ensconced in a foreign court, and it is a genre that continues today wherever a #Jew is portrayed as a fish out of water in the #Diaspora and ends up in a position of influence. Another early story of this type, #Daniel, has its protagonist trying to survive in the court of #Babylon, and some scholars have guessed (because we can only guess) that the story of Esther began circulating around the same time as Daniel, perhaps during the fourth century #BCE."

Some notes about about recent work on building a new interface for the ancient Hebrew Classics: https://andreklein.net/rebuilding-the-reading-experience-for-a-3000-year-old-text #hebrew #tanakh #poetry #verse

I'm working on an original translation of the Bible. My goal is to let the words of scripture guide my translation rather than reading a favored theology into the text. As the saying goes, "Where the Bible speaks, we speak, where it is silent, we are silent." In addition to being a formal equivalence, I try to preserve original idioms (with clarification in the footnotes), poetic and metaphorical language, and distinct synonyms (ie. land/ground/dust) where possible.

The text is available under a Creative Commons license. And it is available at a website, and as an ebook, though it is still incomplete.

Please support my translation work:

Please help me descend to the depths of nerdery. At least Biblical nerdery. I'm writing a translation of the Bible and trying to crowdfund this to make it my job for the next few years to translate the Bible.

I think we can all agree that among biblical translators there are far too few furry, nonbinary, tabletop gamers and far too much bias.

This translation will be released for free under a CC-BY 4.0 license when it is finished. (It's not like Zondervan or Nelson is going to be interested in an *unbiased* translation anyway.) You can use it for sermons or bible studies without limit, fill it with notes, share it with friends, or even change the parts you don't like. It's yours, do whatever you want with it.

I could not love this guy, Dan Maklelan, more. All his videos are great, and his understanding of the #Tanakh (the #Hebrew #Bible) is really quite solid. And he knows #hypocrisy when he sees it.

Getting ready for #tanakhyomi with #exploringjudaism https://www.exploringjudaism.org/learning/tanakh-yomi/ a few chapters a day of a biblical book from the Prophets (N'vi'im) section of the Hebrew Bible (Tanakh), and later from the Writings (K'tuvim) section, keep up with the weekly Torah portion daily or just all on Shabbat... And in a year we'll finish the whole #tanakh

Among those murdered on 7 Oct were Moshe Ohayon and his son Eliad, defending Ofakim from Hamas onslaught. He was, among other things, the head of Project 929, which seeks to make Torah accessible for all Jews regardless of religious education and observance. Each chapter of Tanakh has essays, poems, artwork, and even videos to expand on the text from every imaginable direction. First, the project was in Hebrew, and then they created an English version, with all original content, not translations. I discovered the app (also website) years ago and have found it meaningful.

Moshe Ohayon was a bridge-builder and peacemaker whose life was dedicated to bringing people together across Israeli society regardless of ethnicity, religion, or religious observance. May his memory be a blessing.

Just stumbled across what might be my new favorite episode of the #JudaismUnbound podcast in which guest Wendie Lash and host @lexaphus talked about the idea of the book of #SongIfSongs as a kind of spiritual foreplay for the #HighHolidays.

In #judaism as far as I know, there is much less of this thought than most people imagine. The Judaism is for Jews and that's right.

But non #Jews are not evil according to #Tanakh, as far as I know. In #Islam a non Muslim will probably be resident of hell but in Judaism any one righteous will be resident of heaven and meet #God.

I finally decided which class I'm enrolling in for the Fall at the #Unyeshiva --- God? Gods? Goddesses? Godexes?: Diverse Theologies in #Tanakh (Hebrew Bible) taught by Tamar Kamionkowski. I'm really looking forward to it.

P.S. For anyone who wants to take their Jewish learning to the next level, I strongly recommend Unyeshiva (started by Dan & @lexaphus at #JudaismUnbound). They have some amazing classes this semester.

the idea of my namesake as an autistic dude who has no interest in participating in the absolution of bullies and abusers, who is "grieved unto death" over the loss of a giant plant, who struggled with haShem and is RIGHT ... it makes my name and my identity fit me more than I knew when I first chose them

my girlfriend found this, and it's ... indescribable, what this means to me. my Hebrew name is Yonah, bc I felt so drawn to him as a biblical character, and yet I wasn't fully able to put my connection to him into words, until this article

"We know why Jonah runs because the prophet himself tells us at the end of the text. Jonah objects that God spares the Assyrians the consequences of their actions. They have done evil and they do not deserve to retain their status as the capital of the Assyrian Empire. Jonah is not particularly impressed with the fasting and the public repentance; but he knows that God finds such behavior acceptable and averts their doom. If Jonah knows that there will be no real change and that Nineveh’s might and cruelty will ride roughshod over his people, why should he prophecize to them? Why do they not deserve justice?"

I got a letter!

#Sefaria, a digital library of Jewish literature, is celebrating its 10 year anniversary by letting folks claim a Hebrew letter from the Torah. I know very little about #Hebrew so why not learn about what the letter means, as well as what the word in the verse means. (1/5)

I picked up a JPS #Tanakh in like-new condition for dirt cheap so I’m vibin’. Wanted something physical as I explore things.

The wildest thing was seeing an original hardcover copy of the JPS #Torah – 1st Edition from 1962! The cover was worn but it was neat nonetheless. #Judaism

Abib 18 (2023-04-08): Today, 2,000 years ago, the #Messiah resurrected on the third day as was prophesied. It was a weekly #Sabbath / #Shabbat, for the Messiah is the Master of Sabbath/Shabbat. It was not on the first day of the week, not on #Easter.

He left his tomb on Sabbath day and have shown himself to countless people who did not recognise he has resurrected. Just like how it is today!

Rejoice! For the Messiah has conquered the grave! #HeIsRisen!

Reading Biblical Narratives: Literary Criticism and the Hebrew Bible (2001).

"Why did #God create #angels (malachim?)"
Almost no one asks it. The #Torah, and indeed the entire #Tanakh (Hebrew Bible) doesn't address it. They just take it for granted that everyone in the ANE (ancient near east) knew that angels existed.
What were you told about this issue?

@judaism @mazeldon

All forms of #Judaism have taught that we have an immortal #soul. But what precisely is it, how does the soul work? Our #Torah and #Tanakh don't go into detail. More thought is found in our oral law, but there is no unified understanding of it. It is only among kabbalists or the philosophical rationalists (e.g. Maimonides, Gersonides) that we find detailed discussions. For a Jewish mystical view of the soul let's see ->

Why do many people today look for gender sensitive #translations of the Bible? No, this has nothing to do with politics or social views; nothing woke or anti-woke. Rather, for a long time our #Bible often wasn't translated correctly., e.g. many verses applicable to both women and men were often mistakenly translated as towards men only. David Stein explains how we create better translations -

This week's #Torah #Kasha #Parsha #LechLecha #Judaism

In #yeshiva, I learned that promises of good or rewards in #Tanakh are guaranteed, but promises of punishments are not neccesary, they 're like warnings. So for example when #Hashem promises success through the #Navi, it's guaranteed, but if He promises #exile, it's possible to avoid it.

If so, then why did so many #Rishonim try to calculate the #400years of slavery? Why didn't they just say "The warning no longer applied after ~200 years"
