First Jerusalem
Bible Is Printed

A new edition of the Bible in
Hebrew—the first ever to be set,
printed and published in Jerusa-
lem—is now available in the Unit-
ed States, it was announced by Dr.
Haim Gevaryahu, Chairman of the
Israel Society for Biblical Re-
search. and Director of the World
Jewish Bible Society, Jerusalem.
The new Bible, published by Koren
Publishers, Jerusalem, will be
known as "The Koren-Jerusalem
Bible."
"For this historic edition revo-
lutionary concepts in Hebrew print-
ing were developed to correct the
distortions that have crept into
Hebrew printing over the past cen-
turies," Dr. Gevaryahu said.
"Years of diligent research by
world renowned scholars went into
this undertaking. This is the first
time in 400 years that Jews have
undertaken to print a Hebrew
Bible. From inception of printing
in the 15th cenutry until the year
1511, all the printers of the He-
brew Bible were Jews. From then
on, the printing of the Hebrew
Bible passed into the hands of non-
Jewish printers, first in Venice and
then in other cities."
Dr. Gevaryahu heads the Bible
study group in which Israel's Pres-
ident Zan/Ian Shaar, former Prime
Minister David Ben-Gurion, Su-
preme Court Justice M. Silberg and
other leading Israelis participate.
Distribution of the Koren-Jeru-
salem Bible in the United States
will be handled by the Jerusalem
Tenach, Inc.,_ 250 57 St. N. Y. 19.
