This edition aims to reflect advancements in scholarship and language changes while maintaining utmost fidelity to the original Hebrew text.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Gender-Sensitive Edition offers gender-inclusive renderings where appropriate, employing gendered renderings when historically and linguistically necessary. It incorporates the latest research in Israelite history, religion, literary studies, philology, linguistics, and social sciences to provide a faithful and accurate translation. The translation strives for inclusive language when referring broadly to people, ancestors, and humankind, while maintaining gender sensitivity in references to persons.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn terms of references to God, the edition typically employs gender-neutral language, avoiding grammatically masculine pronouns and labels. Careful examination of each context leads to the most appropriate rendering, ensuring that the tetragrammaton (God's four-letter name) is encountered as a name rather than a masculine connotation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBy revising the venerable JPS translation, the Gender-Sensitive Edition empowers readers to engage with Scripture in its original Hebrew language, unleashing its full power and significance. This edition is a preferred choice for readers who value biblical scholarship while honoring tradition, as well as for communities and individuals who embrace an inclusive, egalitarian perspective in today's world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 229 x 152 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780827615595\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: Revised, Gender-Sensitive Edition\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Inc.
