Transliterations<br />

Some Hebrew words transliterated from Hebrew to English are transliterated differently, depending on the preference of<br />

the publisher. Since these words are being transliterated into English, there is no standard, or commonly accepted spelling,<br />

since transliteration is not an exact science. Transliteration is done by matching sounds as closely as possible. There is no<br />

standard transliteration tool such as a dictionary, or a thesaurus, for consultation, clarity, or uniformity. As such, much of<br />

the transliteration chosen was at the sole discretion of the publisher.<br />

Glossary<br />

All non-English words appearing in the actual body of the text have been listed in the Glossary, to promote quick and easy<br />

comprehension. A few key proper names in the body of the text appear in the Glossary as well.<br />

Endnotes<br />

The Restoration Scriptures True Name Edition <strong>Study</strong> <strong>Bible</strong> has updated the endnotes and commentary to include easier to<br />

understand English names and terminology, leaving most of the Hebrew words for the actual text. The endnotes now make<br />

it possible to study the Restoration Scriptures True Name Edition <strong>Study</strong> <strong>Bible</strong> both with and without the study notes.<br />

Parshas<br />

The Restoration Scriptures True Name Edition <strong>Study</strong> <strong>Bible</strong> has the weekly and annual (feasts) readings of the Torah,<br />

Haftarah (prophets), and the Brit Chadasha (Renewed Covenant) neatly interwoven into the text. This will greatly assist<br />

the reader who desires to follow the Jewish weekly portions designed to cover the full Torah in a year. This added blessing<br />

will greatly enhance all those desiring a true commitment to their new life in Yisrael, as they no longer have to check<br />

calendars to seek out the weekly and annual portions.<br />

Agenda<br />

Unlike many crafty translators and their translations that do not admit to an underlying agenda in their publications, The<br />

Restoration Scriptures True Name Edition <strong>Study</strong> <strong>Bible</strong> has an overriding and clear agenda in publishing this project. We<br />

admit that! It is our most sincere desire and heartfelt prayer, that this translation will help end the exile of our people, by<br />

bringing believers from all backgrounds into their Hebraic heritage. We desire that The Restoration Scriptures True Name<br />

Edition <strong>Study</strong> <strong>Bible</strong> will lead to a repentance and return to YHWH for many, so as to experience life in His sight as a<br />

practicing Torah-keeping born-again Yisraelite. We can see the days when many will study His word as preserved in The<br />

Restoration Scriptures True Name Edition <strong>Study</strong> <strong>Bible</strong>, and will come to have the same love for the restoration of our<br />

people that the eleven disciples had in their final question to our Master, when they asked “Master; will You at this time<br />

restore the kingdom to Yisrael?” It is our earnest expectation that not only will the reader adopt this same burden, but will<br />

also become aware of their own special place in that promised restoration.<br />
