The first Jewish gender-sensitive translation of the full Hebrew
Bible, The JPS TANAKH: Gender-Sensitive Edition renews
and revises the iconic Jewish Publication Society Bible translation
from 1985 to reflect advances in scholarship and changes in English
while maintaining utmost fidelity to the original Hebrew.
This edition offers gender-inclusive renderings where
appropriate and gendered renderings when called for historically
and linguistically, incorporating the best of contemporary research
into Israelite history and religion, literary studies, philology,
linguistics, and the social sciences to offer a faithful and
accurate translation. References to persons are gender sensitive
yet consistent with ancient gender norms, and the translation
strives for inclusive language when referring broadly to people,
ancestors, and humankind. References to God are typically gender
neutral and generally avoid grammatically masculine pronouns and
labels, with careful examination of each context yielding the most
appropriate rendering. To enable the tetragrammaton (God’s
four-letter name) to be encountered as a name and without masculine
connotations, the edition typically translates it as
“God” (in small capitals) rather than “the Lord.”
Revising the venerable JPS translation, this gender-sensitive
edition—RJPS (Revised Jewish Publication Society
edition)—empowers readers to experience Scripture with all the
power of the original Hebrew. It is sure to become the new Bible
translation of choice for readers who embrace biblical scholarship
with reverence for tradition, and for communities and individuals
who adopt an inclusive, egalitarian perspective in today’s world.
