8vo. 19 pages. Part of the series: Rabbi Louis Feinberg memorial lecture in Judaic Studies. Bible scholar. Sarna was an editor and translator for the new Jewish Publication Society translation of the Bible and is the general editor of its Bible Commentary Project, and, after retiring from Brandeis University, academic consultant for Judaica. He was a departmental editor of the Encyclopaedia Judaica for Bible—the period of the Pentateuch, the Desert, Joshua and Judges— and also contributed major articles to the Encyclopaedia Britannnica, the Encyclopaedia Hebraica, the Encyclopaedia Biblica Hebraica, the Encyclopaedia of Religion, and the Oxford Companion to the Bible. He has written over 100 scholarly articles. One of the major thrusts of his work has been to make the Bible and biblical scholarship available to the broad Jewish community. For example, his book Understanding Genesis (1966) has served as a general introduction to the Bible and was followed by Exploring Exodus (1986) and his Commentary on Genesis (1989) .
