As the library grows, we want to take a moment to reflect on our values as an organization and offer insight into how we approach building our collection.
In an ever-evolving world, Sefaria's team is always thinking about new ways to bring the Jewish canon into the digital world. Over the past couple of months, we've been honored to have our team's ideas and innovations featured in major publications and podcasts.
Welcome to the third issue of the Sefaria Scoop, a digest newsletter from Sefaria to catch you up on recent news, additions to our library, and technology updates.
Sefaria and The Jewish Publication Society have partnered to release a new Prophets (Nevi'im) translation, the first major update since their iconic 1985 translation.
Jewish text indicate that translation has been going on for millennia — and for as long as Jews have translated their texts, they've also discussed if, when, and how to do so. See what some core texts of the canon can tell us about this ongoing conversation.
