peguard Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 (edited) In Neusner translations of the Talmuds, as well as in other future translations of rabbinic sources (like Midrashim), would be very useful to include the traditional folio/side division, that is the standard for quoting Talmud and Midrashim: chapter, page, side, line (cf. 'The SBL Handbook of Style'). If you are doing scholarly research and should look up for a reference quoted in such a way in Accordance, is quite confusing and time wasting if the digital texts or translations have a different one.

Helen Brown Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 The Bavli translation does come in two modules, one with Folio references so that it lines up with the original. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peguard Posted May 12, 2015 Author Share Posted May 12, 2015 You are right, Helen. The fact is that in recent weeks I have been working with the Talmud Yerushalmi too, and I was going crazy searching references in the Neusner translation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
