    Mikraot Gedolot
    From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    The Mikraot Gedolot (‫" )מקראות גדולות‬Great Scriptures," often called the "Rabbinic
    Bible" in English,[1] is an edition of the Tanakh (in Hebrew) that generally includes
    four distinct elements:

    The Biblical text according to the masorah in its letters, vocalization, and
    cantillation marks.
    Masoretic notes on the Biblical text.
    Aramaic Targum.
    Biblical commentaries (most common and prominent are medieval
    commentaries in the peshat tradition).

    Numerous editions of the Mikraot Gedolot have been and continue to be published.

    Mikraot Gedolot contains the following additional commentaries: [2]

    The Ben Hayyim edition


    First published in 1524–25 by Daniel Bomberg in
    Venice, the Mikraot Gedolot was edited by the
    masoretic scholar Yaakov ben Hayyim. All of its
    elements - text, masorah, Targum, and
    commentaries were based upon the manuscripts
    that Ben Hayyim had at hand (although he did not
    always have access to the best ones according to
    some, Ginsburg and some others argued that it was
    a good representation of the Ben Asher text).

    The Mikraot Gedolot of Ben Hayyim, though hailed


    as an extraordinary achievement, was riddled with
    thousands of technical errors. Objections were also
    raised by the Jewish readership, based on the fact
    that the very first printing of the Mikra'ot Gedolot
    was edited by Felix Pratensis, a Jew converted to Vayikra - The Book of Leviticus,
    Christianity. Furthermore, Bomberg, a Christian, Warsaw edition,1860, title page
    had requested an imprimatur from the Pope. Such
    facts were not compatible with the supposed Jewish
    nature of the work; Bomberg had to produce a fresh edition under the direction of
    acceptable Jewish editors. Nevertheless, this first edition served as the textual
    model for nearly all later editions until modern times. With regard to the Biblical
    text, many of Ben Hayyim's errors were later corrected by Menahem Lonzano and
    Shlomo Yedidiah Norzi.

    The Mikraot Gedolot of Ben Hayyim served as the textus receptus for the King
    James Version of the Bible in 1611 and the Spanish Reina-Valera translation.

    Recent printed editions


    Most editions until the last few decades, and many editions even today, are

    Mikraot Gedolot - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mikraot_Gedolot

    reprints of or based on late nineteenth century


    Eastern European editions, which are in turn based
    more or less on the Ben Hayyim edition described
    above.

    In the last generation fresh editions of the Mikraot


    Gedolot have been published, based directly on
    manuscript evidence, principally the Keter Aram
    Tzova, the manuscript of the Tanakh kept by the
    Jews of Aleppo. These also have improved texts of
    the commentaries based on ancient manuscripts.
    Three of these editions are:

    vols.), Exodus (2 vols.), Leviticus, Numbers,
