Reviews
"A binding religious text, a historical document of the first importance, and a work of great literary imagination." --Edward Hirsch, New York Times Book Review "Fox's translation has the rare virtue of making constantly visible in English the Hebraic quality of the original, challenging preconceptions of what the Bible is really like. A bracing protest against the bland modernity of all the recent English versions of the Bible." --Robert Alter, professor of comparative literature, University of California, Berkeley "No serious Bible reader--whether Jewish, Christian, or secular--can afford to ignore this volume." --Jon D. Levenson, Harvard Divinity School

The Most Literal Translation.
This translation is the closest to the Hebrew. This makes the translation to English a little different, al littler odd at times, but to me it makes the text more live. Just as the KIng James version of the Christian Bible is a bit awkward at time with its 'thees and thous' , Fox's translation has a charm all its own. To me, this translation by Fox is the most authentic. The original flow is retained.
