Vilnius Codex 262 contains a translation from Hebrew into Belorussian of several biblical books, composed just when Belorussian was emerging in its modern form. The manuscript of the five scrolls is displayed here in a complete photographic reproduction, accompanied by a transcription on facing pages. The introductory chapters and the critical commentary highlight the text’s distinctiveness from other, non-Jewish translations of the Bible into Slavic, and its affinity with translations into languages of the Jewish Diaspora. The last portion of the work is a complete Belorussian-Hebrew Concordance, compiled by Dr. M. Taube.
