I (finally!) have the wiki set up at the Newsletter for Targumic and Cognate Studies. The idea is to have scholars contribute articles on Aramaic, Syriac, Targum, Peshitta, and other related subjects so that the site can become a reliable resource. The Newlsetter itself already has some targumic texts available […]
I am trying to finally knock out this article and as is often the case the introduction is proving the greatest challenge. In particularly I am trying to set up an argument (albeit briefly, it is not the main purpose of this article) for considering the Targumim of the Megillot […]

I have updated my page on TgLam (see the tabs above or click here). I have added subpages that include my English translation of TgLam, based primarily upon Codex Ubranates Ebr. 1 (Urb. 1). Below I have included some of my comments from my book regarding my choice of manuscripts. […]
I have updated the NTCS website again. This time with the Palm formatted texts. Please be aware that the old Tulane hosted site is going away and all references and bookmarks should now point to the Targum.info site. From NTCS: I have now added the targumim files for Palm devices […]
Slowly but surely I am updating the NTCS Targum.info website. Bibliography and “Sources and Catalogues of Targumic MSS” I apologize for the long down time, but I am slowly back to updating our new site. Today I added the “Bibliography” section and “Sources for Manuscripts of Targumic Literature in Public […]
