Hebrew & Septuagint length

In English translation the verse runs 17 words from the Hebrew and 23 from the Septuagint (LXX English) — closely comparable.

A rough comparison of the two English renderings, which tokenize alike — not a word-level alignment.

Word counts can differ between the Hebrew and the Greek without any difference in meaning — e.g. the Hebrew direct-object marker אֵת has no separate Greek word, and Greek often adds the article ὁ.

In the original languages it is 13 Hebrew tokens and 23 Greek tokens — but the two are counted differently (Hebrew bundles its prefixes and suffixes into one token; the Greek is in lemma form), so that isn’t a like-for-like length.

These are two independent witnesses, not word-aligned to each other, and the Septuagint is shown in lemma (dictionary) form.

Targum (Aramaic paraphrase)

2

The Targum is the ancient Jewish Aramaic paraphrase of the Hebrew Scriptures — an interpretive translation, not the Hebrew text itself. Onkelos (literal) and Pseudo-Jonathan (expansive) render the Torah, and Jonathan the Prophets. Coverage is partial: where no permissively-licensed English translation exists for a verse, only the Aramaic is shown. This is verse-level text, not a word-by-word alignment to the Hebrew.

  1. Targum Onkelos Torah (Genesis–Deuteronomy)
    וְאַרְבְּעִין סַמְכֵיהוֹן דִכְסָף תְּרֵין סַמְכִין תְּחוֹת דַפָּא חַד וּתְרֵין סַמְכִין תְּחוֹת דַפָּא חָד:

    (no public-domain English translation for this verse)

    Targum Onkelos — Aramaic: “Onkelos Genesis” (public domain); “Onkelos Exodus” (public domain); “Onkelos Leviticus” (public domain); “Onkelos Numbers” (public domain); “Onkelos Deuteronomy” (public domain).

  2. Targum Pseudo-Jonathan Torah (Genesis–Deuteronomy)
    וְאַרְבְּעִין חוֹמְרֵיהוֹן דִּכְסַף תְּרֵין חוֹמְרִין תְּחוֹת לוּחָא חָד וּתְרֵין חוֹמְרִין תְּחוֹת לוּחָא חָד

Exodus, in the Pentateuch, opens this verse with 13 words (7 distinct Hebrew lemmas). Its most distinctive word is qeresh (“board”). Read the whole chapter for the surrounding context.

Discussion questions

  1. The word qeresh carries the sense “board.” How does it shape the verse?
  2. How does Exodus 26:15, which shares the word «board», read alongside this verse?
  3. What does the repetition of “base” (3× in this one verse) do in this verse?
  4. These translations render this verse differently. What is at stake in choosing one wording over another?
