dilan</i> ("our Targum"), giving them official status. In the synagogues of Talmudic times, Targum Onkelos was read alternately with the Torah, verse by verse, and Targum Jonathan was read alternately with the selection from Nevi'im (i.e., the <a href="/wiki/Haftara" title="Haftara">haftara</a>). This custom continues today in Yemenite Jewish synagogues. </p><p>Besides its public function in the synagogue, the Babylonian Talmud also mentions targum in the context of a personal study requirement: "A person should always review his portions of scripture along with the community, reading the scripture twice and the targum once" (Berakhot 8a–b). This, too, refers to Targum Onkelos on the public Torah reading and to Targum Jonathan on the haftarot from Nevi'im. </p><p>Medieval biblical manuscripts of the <a href="/wiki/Masoretic_Text" title="Masoretic Text">Masoretic Text</a> sometimes contain the Hebrew text interpolated, verse-by-verse, with the <i>targumim</i>. This scribal practice is rooted in the public reading of the Targum and the requirement for private study. </p><p>The two "official" targumim are considered eastern (Mesopotamian, called "Babylonian"). Nevertheless, scholars believe they, too, originated in <a href="/wiki/Syria_Palestina" class="mw-redirect" title="Syria Palestina">Syria Palestina</a> because of a strong linguistic substratum of <a href="/wiki/Jewish_Palestinian_Aramaic" title="Jewish Palestinian Aramaic">Jewish Palestinian Aramaic</a>. Though these targumim were later "orientalised", the substratum belying their origins remains. </p><p>When most Jewish communities ceased speaking Aramaic in the 10th century, the public reading of Targum, along with the Torah and Haftarah, was abandoned in most communities, Yemen being a well-known exception. </p><p>The private study requirement to review the Targum was never entirely relaxed, even when Jewish communities had largely ceased speaking Aramaic, and the Targum never ceased to be a major source for <a href="/wiki/Jewish_exegesis" class="mw-redirect" title="Jewish exegesis">Jewish exegesis</a>. For instance, it serves as a major source in Shlomo Yitzhaki's Torah commentary, "<a href="/wiki/Rashi" title="Rashi">Rashi</a>," and has always been the standard fare for <a href="/wiki/Ashkenazi_Jews" title="Ashkenazi Jews">Ashkenazi Jews</a> onward. </p><p>For these reasons, Jewish editions of the Tanakh which include commentaries still almost always print the Targum alongside the text, in all Jewish communities. Nevertheless, later halakhic authorities argued that the requirement to privately review the <i>targum</i> might also be met by reading a translation in the current vernacular in place of the official Targum, or else by studying an important commentary containing midrashic interpretation (especially that of Rashi). </p> </section><div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 section-heading" onclick="mfTempOpenSection(3)"><span class="indicator mf-icon mf-icon-expand mf-icon--small"></span><h2 id="Targum_Ketuvim">Targum Ketuvim</h2><span class="mw-editsection"> <a role="button" href="/w/index.php?title=Targum&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Targum Ketuvim" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> <span class="minerva-icon minerva-icon--edit"></span> <span>edit</span> </a> </span> </div><section class="mf-section-3 collapsible-block" id="mf-section-3"> <p>The Talmud explicitly states that no official <i>targumim</i> were composed besides these two on Torah and Nevi'im alone, and that there is no official <i>targum</i> to <a href="/wiki/Ketuvim" title="Ketuvim">Ketuvim</a> ("The Writings").

The targumim of Psalms, Proverbs, and Job are generally treated as a unit, as are the targumim of the five scrolls (Esther has a longer "<a href="/wiki/Targum_Sheni" title="Targum Sheni">Second Targum</a>" as well.)

An important one of these was mistakenly labeled "Targum Jonathan" in later printed versions (though all medieval authorities refer to it by its correct name). The error crept in because of an abbreviation: the printer interpreted the abbreviation <i>TY</i> (ת"י) to stand for <i>Targum Yonathan</i> (תרגום יונתן) instead of the correct <i>Targum Yerushalmi</i> (תרגום ירושלמי). Scholars refer to this <i>targum</i> as <a href="/wiki/Targum_Pseudo-Jonathan" title="Targum Pseudo-Jonathan">Targum Pseudo-Jonathan</a>. To attribute this targum to <a href="/wiki/Jonathan_ben_Uzziel" title="Jonathan ben Uzziel">Jonathan ben Uzziel</a> flatly contradicts the Talmudic tradition (Megillah 3a), which quite clearly attributes the targum to Nevi'im alone to him, while stating that there is no official targum to the Ketuvim. In the same printed versions, a similar fragment targum is correctly labeled as <i>Targum Yerushalmi</i>. </p><p>The Western Targumim on the Torah, or Palestinian Targumim as they are also called, consist of three manuscript groups: <a href="/wiki/Targum_Neofiti" title="Targum Neofiti">Targum Neofiti</a> I, Fragment Targums, and Cairo Geniza Fragment Targums. </p><p>Of these <a href="/wiki/Targum_Neofiti" title="Targum Neofiti">Targum Neofiti</a> I is the largest. It consist of 450 folios covering all books of the Pentateuch, with only a few damaged verses. The history of the manuscript begins 1587 when the censor <a href="/w/index.php?title=Andrea_de_Monte&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Andrea de Monte (page does not exist)">Andrea de Monte</a> (d. 1587) bequeathed it to Ugo Boncompagni—which presents an oddity, since Boncompagni, better known as <a href="/wiki/Pope_Gregory_XIII" title="Pope Gregory XIII">Pope Gregory XIII</a>, died in 1585.

These manuscripts are all too fragmented to confirm what their purpose was, but they seem to be either the remains of a single complete targum or short variant readings of another targum. As a group, they often share theological views and with Targum Neofiti, which has led to the belief that they could be variant readings of that targum.<sup id="cite_ref-McNamara_13-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-McNamara-13"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>13<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-Sysling_14-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Sysling-14"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>14<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The <a href="/wiki/Cairo_Geniza" title="Cairo Geniza">Cairo Geniza</a> Fragment Targums originate from the Ben Ezra Synagogue's genizah in Cairo.
