MARGOLIS, MAX L,

[Collection of works, including his first book, Author's copies of scholarly publications, and Note on the New Translation of the Holy Scriptures (Published in 1917 by the J. P.S.A.)].

V.p. (New York, Phila., etc.), 1891-1927. 11 vols., 4to (Note) and 8vo. . Various bindings, condition as described below. Provenance: from the library of biblical scholar Frank Zimmermann, student of Margolis and contributor to the 1952 memorial volume, Max Leopold Margolis Scholar and Teacher, published by Dropsie College. References: Zimmermann, Margolis' Contribution to Bible and Rabbinics, pp. 21-22, in Max Leopold Margolis Scholar and Teacher, ed. Robert Gordis (1952); Greenspoon, Max Leopold Margolis A Scholar's Scholar (1987).
¶ Max L. Margolis, linguist and scholar, was professor of Biblical Philology at Dropsie College from 1909 until his death in 1932. The "greatest Jewish master of Biblical learning yet arisen in America," Margolis was named editor-in-chief of the Jewish Publication Society's project of translating the entire Bible anew, which bore fruit in 1917 with the appearance of The Holy Scriptures, According to the Masoretic Text. "While the King James version, of course, had become an English classic in its own right, it nevertheless was inaccurate in the light of three centuries' advance, inadequate in scores of translations, and infused with Christological preconceptions. The committee felt that the Jewish people had need of a version they could call their very own. [...] For the background of the translation, Margolis prepared a giant collection of notes, issued ultimately by the Jewish Publication Society in 1921 for private circulation. [...] The product is a monument to scholarship, and within the exigency of the masoretic text, 'the best version of the Jewish Scriptures that we have' (James A. Montgomery)." A man of profound learning, Margolis was also skilled at writing for a wider audience; he published a succinct general work, The Story of Bible Translations, in the same year The Holy Scriptures appeared, and was later author of The History of the Jewish People, with Alexander Marx (1927). His modern biographer, Leonard Greenspoon, writes "[H]e achieved a synthesis of Jewish and biblical studies that served as a model for his students and then for theirs. he demonstrated that it was possible to remain true to the high ideals of his religion and of the academy" (ANB)" The collection includes the following: Margolis, Max L.
