From the recipient of the National Jewish Book Award for Lifetime Achievement, a hugely entertaining and irreverent (Adam Gopnik, New Yorker) account of the art of translating the Hebrew Bible into English
In this brief book, award-winning biblical translator Robert Alter offers a personal and passionate account of what he learned about the art of Bible translation during the two decades he spent completing his own English version of the Hebrew Bible. Showing why the Bible and its meaning can be brought to life in English only by re-creating the subtle and powerful literary style of the original text, Alter discusses the principal aspects of biblical Hebrew that any translator should try to reproduce: word choice, syntax, word play and sound play, rhythm, and dialogue. In the process, he provides an illuminating and accessible introduction to biblical style that also offers insights about the art of translation far beyond the Bible.Binding Type: Paperback

Very thin hollow plastic
Color: White
Didnβt last long. The wind knocked it down and snapped one of the wings off. The mold was hollow and the plastic was very flimsy.

Pretty and functional solar lighted angel statue
Color: White
Pretty solar lighted angel statue that is perfect for garden or cemetery memorial. Charges during the day and turns on automatically at night. It is a good weight that, if set up properly, will not easily tip over. It is also a nice size, not tiny. I am not typically a big fan of this type of thing but this one is very nice.

Detailed small standing angel with light up cross
Color: White
Only a foot tall, so she's a small angel. She would go well on a grave or in a garden. The cross lights up at night. She has an overall nice design, very detailed.
