Info Detail Spesifik

This book is intended for those wh o do not read Hebrew but have to rely on a translation of the Bible. I have tried to put myself in their position as much as possible, and whe n I started writing I was fully resolved to refrain entirely from using information from the original texts, or at least to limit references to the original text to the utmost minimum. No w that the book is finished, however, I find that I have not always succeeded in this aim. Occasionally I have been forced to refer to the original language after all, in order to keep my argument transparent, and because the poem under consideration demanded it. Moreover, I have frequently resorted to using my own translations.
