Editing Talmud (section)

=== Steinsaltz ===
* [[Adin Steinsaltz]] began his translation of the Babylonian Talmud into modern Hebrew (the original is mostly Aramaic with some Mishnaic Hebrew) in 1969 and completed it in 2010. (He also translated some tractates of the Jerusalem Talmud.) The Hebrew edition is printed in two formats: the original one in a new layout and the later one in the format of the traditional Vilna Talmud page; both are available in several sizes. The first attempt to translate the Steinsaltz edition into English was ''[[The Talmud: The Steinsaltz Edition]]'' (Random House), which contains the original Hebrew-Aramaic text with punctuation and an English translation based on Steinsaltz' complete [[Hebrew language]] translation of and commentary on the entire Talmud. This edition began to be released in 1989 but was never completed; only four tractates were printed in 21 volumes, with a matching Reference Guide translated from a separate work of Steinsaltz. Portions of the Steinsaltz Talmud have also been translated into French, Russian, and other languages.
* The Noé Edition of the ''Koren Talmud Bavli'', published by [[Koren Publishers Jerusalem]] was launched in 2012. It has a new, modern English translation and the commentary of [[Adin Steinsaltz]], and was praised for its "beautiful page" with "clean type".<ref>[http://www.tabletmag.com/jewish-life-and-religion/123338/queen-for-a-day "Queen for a Day"], ''Tablet Magazine'', 5 February 2013</ref> From the right side cover (the front side of Hebrew and Aramaic books), [[The Talmud: The Steinsaltz Edition|the Steinsaltz Talmud]] edition has the traditional Vilna page with vowels and punctuation in the original Aramaic text. The [[Rashi]] commentary appears in [[Rashi script]] with vowels and punctuation. From the left side cover the edition features bilingual text with side-by-side English/Aramaic translation. The margins include color maps, illustrations and notes based on [[Adin Steinsaltz]]'s [[Hebrew language]] translation and commentary of the Talmud. [[Tzvi Hersh Weinreb]] serves as the Editor-in-Chief. The entire set was completed in 42 volumes.
