Preface
The present volume is the twelfth in this series of the Jerusalem Talmud, the
second in a three-volume edition, translation, and Commentary of the Fourth
Order of this Talmud. The principles of the edition regarding text,
vocalization, and Commentary have ben spelled out in detail in the
Introduction to the first volume. The text in this volume is based on the
manuscript text of the Yerushalmi edited by J. Sussman for the Academy of
the Hebrew Language, Jerusalem 2001. The text essentially represents an
outline, to be fleshed out by a teacher's explanation. The translation should
mirror this slant; it should not endow the text with literary qualities which the
original does not posses. In particular, the translation is not intended to stand
separate from the Commentary.
The extensive Commentary is not based on emendations; where there is no
evidence from manuscripts or early prints to correct evident scribal errors, the
proposed correction is given in the Notes. As in the preceding volumes, for
each paragraph the folio and line numbers of the Krotoschin edition are added.
It should be remembered that these numbers may differ from the editio
princeps by up to three lines. It seems to be important that a translation of the
Yerushalmi be accompanied by the text, to enable the reader to compare the
interpretation with other translations.
Unfortunately, the technical progress of computer systems combined with
the ephemeral nature of magnetic storage media has made it impossible to
continue using the multi-lingual word processor used for the previous
volumes. The look of the pages therefore has changed. Since the new word
processor allows for masoretic accents, biblical quotations are now given with
the accents, except for words which differ (usually by plene spelling) from the
masoretic texts. Since the quotes are part of oral tradition, the deviations in
spelling are examples of substandard spelling, rather than changes in the text.
VI PREFACE
Again, I wish to thank my wife, Dr. Eva Guggenheimer, who acted as
critic, style editor, proof reader, and expert on the Latin and Greek
vocabulary. Her own notes on some possible Latin and Greek etymologies
are identified by (E. G.).
I sincerely thank the staff of the Jewish Division of the New York Public
Library for providing me with a copy of the Genizah text of Tractate Makkot.
