About NETS

NETS is a new translation of the Greek Jewish Scriptures, entitled A New English Translation of the Septuagint and the Other Greek Translations Traditionally Included Under that Title (and abbreviated as NETS). This project is being carried out under the ægis of The International Organization for Septuagint and Cognate Studies (IOSCS). The translators are specialists in Septuagint studies. Their translations follow rigorous procedures established by the editors. Oxford University Press publishes the translation. An accompanying commentary series is also planned.

Celebrating the publication of NETS are (left to right) Ben Wright (ed.), Don Kraus (OUP), Albert Pietersma (ed.), Glenn Wooden, Rob Hiebert, Cameron Boyd-Taylor, and Peter Gentry. (San Diego, November 19, 2007).
