The Book of Psalms: A Polyglot (Hardcover)

Book in Polyglot Bibles

A polyglot Bible is a single edition of Scripture that prints multiple ancient textual traditions side-by-side on the same page or facing pages, so that scholars can directly compare how different traditions render the same verses. It is both a scholarly and teaching tool designed to expose textual variants, illuminate interpretive differences, and make the structure of the biblical text visible across languages in a way no single-language edition can achieve.

This is a new polyglot for the Book of Psalms. It aligns across versions at a verse level, even when the chapters and verses numbering varies across traditions. It is designed as a tool for teaching textual criticism to students and for scholars and interested non-specialists wanting to browse differences and study the diverse textual traditions of the Bible.

This polyglot aligns:

• The Hebrew Masoretic Text (Codex Leningrad)
• The Greek Septuagint (Rahlfs' 1931 Edition)
• The Syriac Peshitta (Codex Ambrosianus, 7a1)
• Aramaic Targum to the Psalms
• The Latin Vulgate (Gallican Psalter, Macronized Clementine Edition)
• The World English Bible (WEB)
