Targum Jonathan of the Former Prophets: Volume 10
ISBN: 9780814654798 / Angielski / Twarda / 1987 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych.

The attribution, therefore, is not to be taken as historical fact. The Talmud may have been attempting to enhance the authority of the Targum by claiming authorship by a disciple of Hillel, which Jonathan was. It is generally agreed that the author of the Targum Jonathan is unknown; in fact, it is preferable...
