Orthodox Jewish Bible

This work began nearly forty years ago when the translator was a doctoral student in Graduate School. It seeks sensus literalis (literal sense, i.e., this translation looks for a word-for-word, literal translation leaving verb tenses, etc unvarnished, from the original language without the use of non-frum idioms which are by no means necessary in any case, since the original is the fount of Orthodoxy, leaving all else sadly not "orthodox" enough--see in the translation Gevurot MeyRuach Hakodesh 21:19-26.) The Orthodox Jewish Bible is also a paraphrase that applies Yiddish and Hasidic cultural expressions to the Messianic Bible.
