What is Tanakh = [Tanakh], the holy scriptures : the new JPS translation according to the traditional Hebrew text about?

The Tanakh Is An Entirely Original Translation Of The Holy Scriptures Into Contemporary English, Based On The Masoretic--the Traditional Hebrew--text. It Is The Culmination Of Three Decades Of Collaboration By Academic Scholars And Rabbis Representing The Three Largest Branches Of Organized Judaism In America. Not Since The Third Century B.c.e., When Seventy-two Elders Of The Tribes Of Israel Created The Greek Translation Of Scriptures Known As The Septuagint, Has Such A Broad-based Committee Of Jewish Scholars Produced A Major Bible Translation. In Executing This Monumental Task, The Translators Made Use Of The Entire Range Of Biblical Interpretation, Ancient And Modern, Jewish And Non-jewish. They Drew Upon The Latest Findings In Linguistics And Archaeology As Well As The Work Of Early Rabbinic And Medieval Commentators, Grammarians, And Philologians. The Resulting Text Is A Triumph Of Literary Style And Biblical Scholarship, Unsurpassed In Accuracy And Clarity. Torah -- Neviʼim -- Kethuvim.
