Publication Society</b> (<b>JPS</b>), originally known as the <b>Jewish Publication Society of America</b>, is the oldest nonprofit, nondenominational publisher of Jewish works in English. Founded in <a href="/wiki/Philadelphia" title="Philadelphia">Philadelphia</a> in 1888, by Reform Rabbi <a href="/wiki/Joseph_Krauskopf" title="Joseph Krauskopf">Joseph Krauskopf</a> among others, JPS is especially well known for its English translation of the <a href="/wiki/Hebrew_Bible" title="Hebrew Bible">Hebrew Bible</a>, the <a href="/wiki/JPS_Tanakh" class="mw-redirect" title="JPS Tanakh">JPS Tanakh</a>. </p><p>The JPS Bible translation is used in Jewish and Christian<sup class="noprint Inline-Template Template-Fact" style="white-space:nowrap;">[<i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed"><span title="This claim needs references to reliable sources.

It has been licensed in a wide variety of books as well as in electronic media. </p><p>As a nonprofit publisher, JPS develops projects that for-profit publishers will not invest in, significant projects that may take years to complete. Other core JPS projects include the ongoing JPS Bible commentary series; books on Jewish tradition, holidays and customs, history, theology, ethics and philosophy; midrash and Rabbinics; and its many Bible editions and Bible study resources.<sup id="cite_ref-jps.org_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-jps.org-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Since 2012, JPS publications have been distributed by the <a href="/wiki/University_of_Nebraska_Press" title="University of Nebraska Press">University of Nebraska Press</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-LJS_2-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-LJS-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-Exponent_3-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Exponent-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History">History</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Jewish_Publication_Society&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: History"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The first Jewish Publication Society was founded in 1845 in <a href="/wiki/Philadelphia" title="Philadelphia">Philadelphia</a>, but was dissolved six years later after a fire destroyed the building and the entire JPS stock.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> A second, founded in New York in 1873, ended in 1875.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In response to the growing need for English-language Jewish texts, rabbis and lay leaders of the American Jewish community met on June 3, 1888 at a national convention in Philadelphia and founded the Jewish Publication Society. </p><p>As JPS moved into the 20th century, membership grew rapidly. After years of meetings, deliberations and revisions, the entire translation of the Bible was finally completed in 1917. This crowning achievement was put to use at the start of <a href="/wiki/World_War_I" title="World War I">World War I</a>, when young Jewish men were given prayer books and <a href="/wiki/Bible" title="Bible">Bible</a> readings as they marched off to war. </p><p>As Hitler and the <a href="/wiki/Nazi_party" class="mw-redirect" title="Nazi party">Nazi party</a> rose to power during the 1930s, Jews in America resisted anti-Semitism through the power of words. Works such as <i>The Decay of Czarism</i> and <i><a href="/wiki/Aggadah#Modern_Aggadah_compilations" title="Aggadah">Legends of the Jews</a></i> became staples of Jewish literacy and helped to preserve the legacy of <a href="/wiki/European_Jewry" class="mw-redirect" title="European Jewry">European Jewry</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> JPS also assisted the war effort by supporting <a href="/wiki/Refugee" title="Refugee">refugee</a> employment and resettlement, and by printing pamphlets that were dropped behind enemy lines, at the request of the American government.<sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>During the latter half of the 20th century, JPS published a revised translation of the Bible, books detailing both war atrocities and triumphs, and books with a new-found focus on the <a href="/wiki/State_of_Israel" class="mw-redirect" title="State of Israel">State of Israel</a>. Works such as <i>The JPS Commentary Series</i>, <i>The Jewish Catalog</i> and <i>The K'Tonton Series</i> were tremendously successful. From 1975 to 1978 <a href="/wiki/A._Leo_Levin" title="A.
