| | TARGUM - LoveToKnow Article on TARGUM |
 | | The Targums are the Aramaic translationsor rather paraphrasesof the books of the Old Testament, and, in their earliest form, date from the time when Aramaic superseded Hebrew as the spoken language of the Jews (see HEBREW LANGUAGE). | | | The official Targum on the Prophets is stated by the Babylonian Talmud7 to have been said by Jonathan hen Uzziel, the disciple of Hillel, and is usually known, therefore, as the Targum Jonathan. | | | It naturally follows from the character of the original that the rendering of this Targum is less literal than that of Onkelos, especially in the prophetic books, but, when due allowance is made for the difficulty of the Hebrew, it may be described on the whole as a faithful reproduction of the original text. |

| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Targum |
| | The Targums mentioned under (a) adhere relatively closest to the text of the Bible. | | | At a later date the whole Targum was printed in the Rabbinical Bibles of Bomberg and Buxdorf and in the Polyglot Bibles of Antwerp, Paris, and London. | | | Targum Yerushalmi on the Pentateuch is also called the Fragmentary targum because the Targum on the entire Pentateuch has not been preserved, but only portions of it on numerous longer and shorter passages, frequently only the Targum on individual verses or parts of such. |

| | Targum - International Standard Bible Encyclopedia |
| | The main benefit received from the Targums is the knowledge of the views of the Jewish rabbis as to the meaning of certain passages Thus in Genesis 49:10 there is no doubt in the mind of the Targumist that "Shiloh" refers to the Messiah. | | | The Targums that require most to be considered are the official Targums, those that are given in the rabbinic Bibles in columns parallel with the columns of Hebrew. | | | Yet more extravagant is the 2nd Targum; it begins by asserting that there are ten great monarchs of whom Achhashverosh was the 6th, the Greek and Roman were the 7th and the 8th, Messiah the king the 9th, and the Almighty Himself the 10th. |
