The Aramaic and Palestinian Targums

The Aramaic and Palestinian Targums

The Targums refer to various language translations or paraphrases of the Old Testament Torah, that were commissioned by the Rabbi's once Aramaic became the colloquial language of use by the Israeli peoples; whom had assimilated it as vernacular. The targums are confirming witness to how the Hebrew Bible text existed in the first few centuries Ce, and capture the essence of the original language as it was translated from the orginal Hebrew Torah. The additional commentary and paraphrase are also valuable in their preservation of content which might otherwise have been lost to future generations. In my opinion, as insight into early Hebraic thought, theology, practice, and transcription, they are priceless as source material.
