The Scholars Hebrew Bible Project
The Oxford Hebrew Bible
The Scholars Hebrew Bible will be a new critical
edition of the Hebrew Bible featuring a critical text and extensive
text-critical introduction and commentary. Each book of the Hebrew Bible
will be addressed in a separate volume, with a single volume each for
the Minor Prophets, the Megillot, and Ezra-Nehemiah. This project
represents a departure from the other major textual editions (the Biblia Hebraica Quinta and the Hebrew University Bible), which are diplomatic editions.
The project has now changed its name to "The Scholars Hebrew Bible Project." According to Daniel O. McClellan: "many professors at Oxford express concerns with the name, given the fact
that not a single professor from Oxford was involved and they broadly
disapproved of an eclectic edition. It seems something has now been done
about it."
