the readers of the Bible to compare the source text with the translation, claiming that the source text
should be the Greek Bible, namely, the LXX. For these reasons, the Bible can be brought to life in
English only by re-creating its literary virtuosity, and Alter discusses the principal aspects of style in
the Hebrew Bible that any translator should try to reproduce: word choice, syntax, word play and
sound play, rhythm, and dialogue. Besides his intense studies of literature and languages, Jerome's
monumental achievement as a biblical scholar was grounded in monastic enthusiasm, the teaching of

study of translation, translators at the time of Cicero were allowed to show their creativity, since
they presupposed the reader’s ability to compare the Greek text with the Latin translation. The
Septuagint was a translation into Koine Greek and it was understood quite well. Moses explains that
these men would ensure that Israel receives and comply with all that Yahuwah determined to be
functional for His nation. For many in the church, the Bible is viewed as a transformative and

larger context of Bible translations, especially English Bible translations, and examine many of the
issues involved in translating the Bible and the choices that translators make. Against this premise the
