The Parallel Bible offers Hebrew and English texts of the Bible in parallel columns, ideally suited for study. The Hebrew text is Hendrickson Publisher's The Biblia Hebraica Leningradensia, edited by scholar Aron Dotan. The 1762 Cambridge edition of the King James Version appears in columns beside it. The Parallel Bible is perfect for classroom work and is a valuable tool for biblical research. The clarity and readability of the Hebrew text alongside the time-honored King James Version makes The Parallel Bible an important addition to the libraries of students, pastors, and biblical scholars.
The Biblical Hebraica Leningradensia edition of the Hebrew Bible is the most accurate edition of the Leningrad Codex in print. The Leningrad Codex is the oldest complete manuscript of the Hebrew Bible and forms the basis for most of the modern printed editions of the Old Testament.

This volume is thick! It has 1883 pages, not 1312 pages as specified in the product specs. The text is clear, legible, and easy on the eye. Qere readings are given in the right hand margin of the Hebrew text. Attractive on the inside, the one drawback of this volume is its unwieldiness due to its sizeable girth. It weighs about 2.2 kilograms, or almost 5 pounds! Nevertheless, I am happy that I purchased this item, and consider it money well spent.
