Introduction One of the distinctive characteristics of the United Bible Societies’ (UBS) translation program is its involvement in scholarly editions and helps for translators. Bible Society personnel have contributed significantly to the development of the theory and practice of translation, and have also provided a wide range of scholarly and practical tools for Bible translators. These materials are generally classified as “Helps for Translators.” These include theUBS Handbooks, the journal The Bible Translator, as well as other books that deal either with theory or practical things such as how to prepare Bible manuscripts indexes. Another facet of this program is the publication of scholarly editions. These include the Greek and Hebrew texts used by translators, and materials based on those texts, such as synopses of the four or Bible dictionaries. Work on these materials is sponsored by the Bible Societies, and often involves some Bible Society personnel, as well as other scholars. In most cases publication is by Bible Societies, although some of the materials have been handled by commercial publishers. All of this work is carried out with the express purpose of assisting the process of Bible translation. But the value of these materials is not limited to translators. Any teacher or student of biblical will find a number of Bible Society publications on his or her bookshelf. The Bible Societies are major developers and distributors of Greek and Hebrew texts. The scholarship that has gone into the editing and preparation of those texts is acknowledged as being the very finest, and thus scholars everywhere rely on our materials. We are finding, too, that theUBS Handbooks are useful to pastors, Bible students, Sunday School teachers, and others interested in knowing more about the Bible. The material is practical and yet scholarly. This catalog is a listing of publications that support the UBS translation program. Included are the scholarly editions of the source texts used for Scripture translation, and helps for translators. Ordering and Prices UBS publications may be obtained through your national Bible Society (click “Bible Societies by Area” on the home menu to find your Bible Society). Prices are not listed here because they will depend on shipping and handling costs of individual Bible Societies. A number of Bible Societies have online bookstores, including: online shop German Bible Society online shop
