 Rosenthaliana: Two Yiddish Bibles printed in Amsterdam
In his preface, Uri Fayvesh complains about someone he trusted but who later exploited his idea to publish a Yiddish translation of the complete Old Testament, and in the other Bible Joseph Witzenhausen makes fun of mistakes in Blitz's translation.
Before Athias started printing his own Yiddish Bible, he took the pages of Blitz's translation which, as one of its financiers, he had for safekeeping and used them to obtain a'privilegie' from the civil authorities from the Province of Holland.
One of Uri Fayvesh's financiers, the Sephardi publisher Joseph Athias, withdrew from the enterprise while this translation was being printed because he was unhappy with Blitz's work.

The name Bezalel comes from the Bible (Exodus 35:30) where Bezalel, the son of Uri, from the tribe of Judah, was appointed by Moses to oversee the construction of the Tabernacle and to supervise the work of the o the r craftspeople.
Bezalel was commanded to “devise curious works, to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass, and in the cutting of stones, to set the m, and in carving of wood, to make any manner of cunning work.” (Exodus 35:32-35:33).

 Ur Of The Chaldees (International Standard Bible Encyclopedia) :: Bible Tools
The most generally-accepted theory at the present time is that Ur is to be identified with the modern Mugheir (or Mughayyar, "the pitchy") in Southern Babylonia, called Urumma, or Urima, and later Uru in the inscriptions.
It should be stated that there are scholars who hold, with the Septuagint, that Ur means, not a city, but perhaps a land in which the patriarch pastured his flocks, as for instance, the land of Uri or Ura (Akkad).
Eupolemus, who lived about 150 BC, spoke of it as being a city of Babylonia called Camarina, which he said was called by some Ouria.

 megillah (was Re: This week's Perl 6 Summary)
Uri noted that he really should keep his finger off the PC> send button until he's read the whole 'megilla', whatever one PC> of those is. it is appropriate that today is purim, which is the holiday that celebrates the story of queen esther and mordachai's victory over the evil haman.
the book of esther is one of the 5 books in the bible that were traditionally written on a single scroll which is called a megillah.
so megillah really just means a type book and is used colloquially as i did above.

 JewishEncyclopedia.com - BEZALEL
Apparently it means "in the shadow [protection] of El." Bezalel is described in the genealogical lists as the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah (I Chron.
Elsewhere in the Bible the name occurs only in the genealogical lists of the Book of Chronicles, but according to cuneiform inscriptions a variant form of the same, "Ẓil-BêI," was borne by a king of Gaza who was a contemporary of Hezekiah and Manasseh.
Bezalel sagely suggested to him that men usually build the house first and afterward provide the furnishings; but that, inasmuch as Moses had ordered the Tabernacle to be built last, there was probably some mistake and God's command must have run differently.
