Abstract

Contains an edition only of Yefet’s Judaeo-Arabic translation and commentary on Gen 11:10–25:18, apparently based on 12 distinct Mss. as represented in 18 separately-catalogued items. See in particular chap. 6 of Zawanowska’s introduction, where she addresses Yefet’s approach to translation.
