Hebrew University Bible Project
- Hebrew University Bible Project
The Hebrew University Bible Project (HUBP) is a project to create the first-ever edition of the Hebrew Bible with a thorough critical apparatus.
It was begun in 1956 by Moshe Goshen-Gottstein, assisted by Chaim Rabin (who succeeded him as editor-in-chief) and Shemaryahu Talmon (who succeeded him).
The text reproduced in this edition is the Aleppo Codex; the full masora in that manuscript is included, but not massora from other sources. Footnotes record textual variants from a wide range of sources. These include:
* Translations: the Septuagint, the Vulgate, the Vetus Latina, the Peshitta, the targums and Saadia Gaon’s Arabic translation.
* Manuscripts, such as the Dead Sea scrolls and the most important mediaeval copies (particularly the Codex Cairensis and the Leningrad Codex).
* Rabbinic works, including the two Talmuds and various midrashim (many examined for this purpose for the first time).
The editors add comments in English and Hebrew.
So far, the books of Isaiah, Jeremiah and Ezekiel have been published.
