Publisher: German Bible Society

Description

Biblia Hebraica Quinta (BHQ) is a detailed and up-to-date presentation of the available evidence for the transmission of the Hebrew Bible text. It is being developed from the ground up by an international and interdenominational team of scholars, based on the oldest completely preserved manuscript of the Hebrew Bible, the Codex EBP.I B 19a (commonly known as the Leningrad Codex or Codex Leningradensis) from the Russian National Library in St. Petersburg.

BHQ provides an excellent overview of the existing textual variants that are relevant for translation and exegesis. Completely redesigned and expanded from the preceding BHS, all significant variants from the Qumran texts are now listed in full, along with a detailed commentary section containing in-depth comments on individual text-critical questions along with translation of the Great Masorah as well as explanations of the Small Masorah.

At the beginning of each volume there is a table of accents, a glossary for the Masorah parva, a list of the definitions and abbreviations used to characterize the readings, and a useful sample page that illustrates the features of the layout. Each volume ends with a detailed yet succinct discussion of the textual witnesses for each biblical book that contains a wealth of helpful information, and the manuscripts and critical editions of the texts are clearly annotated.

In addition this Olive Tree version includes Westminster parsings and the Brown, Driver, & Briggs (BDB) Hebrew and English Lexicon.

Included Volumes:

  • Volume 1: Genesis
  • Volume 3: Leviticus
  • Volume 5: Deuteronomy
  • Volume 7: Judges
  • Volume 13: Minor Prophets
  • Volume 17: Proverbs
  • Volume 18: Megilloth
  • Volume 20: Ezra & Nehemiah

Summary of Features:

  • Two other Tiberian codices are collated for each book.
  • Qumran and Judean Desert fragments are collated.
  • All available pre-Tiberian witnesses for each textual case are noted.
  • A general introduction presents the edition, characterizes the text and masorah of the base text, the particular use of resources, the relation of BHQ to BHS and previous editions.
