The The Book of Job: A New Commentary by Israeli scholar Naphtali Herz Tur-Sinai (also known as H. Torczyner) is a major scholarly analysis of the biblical Book of Job
Format: Features the original Hebrew text alongside an English translation on facing pages, paired with extensive English commentary.
Core Hypothesis: Tur-Sinai famously argued on linguistic grounds that the poetic speeches of Job were originally composed in Aramaic (likely during the early Babylonian captivity) and later translated into Hebrew. He suggested this translation origin explains many of the rare words (hapax legomena) and textual difficulties in the book
