La Bible du Rabbinat
The Bible of the French Rabbinate (French: La Bible du Rabbinat Français) is a translation of the Tanakh, the Hebrew Bible, from Hebrew to French. The first volume was published in 1899, but it only included the Torah (French: Pentateuque) and the Early Prophets (French: Premiers Prophètes). However, a second volume published in 1906 added the Later Prophets (French: Derniers Prophètes) and the Writings (French: Hagiographes).[1]
The work was undertaken under the direction of Zadoc Kahn, the Chief Rabbi of France, and several Hebraists like Lazare Isidor and Mayer Lambert. Kahn died while the second volume was being completed.
