Robert D. Sacks has rendered the bold and vivid poetic imagery of the Hebrew original in English prose that is equally bold and equallyvivid¿while remaining solidly grounded in the nuances of meaning anddiversity of resonances present in the Hebrew text.The result is a translation often startling in its power and insight, openingthe way to a deeper undertanding of this profound and unsettling book.Numerous notes provide enlightening but unobtrusive explanation of manyof the translator's choices. In a separate chapter-by-chapter commentary, Sacks offers sustained original reflection on the several characters, theirintentions, and their core beliefs.
