Cylkow… „Sensitive to the modulation of the Hebrew phrase,
shapes the verse in a manner slightly different
from both the Catholic and Protestant Bibles,
which were always influenced by the Latin syntax”

Cylkow,
„wrażliwy na modulację hebrajskiej frazy, nieco inaczej kształtuje werset niż czynią to Biblie, zarówno katolickie jak i protestanckie, zawsze… ulegające wpływowi składni łacińskiej”

Rabbi
Izaak Cylkow

Izaak Cylkow was born in 1841 in Masovia, in the town of Bieżuń, to the family of Mojżesz Aaron Cylkow (1813-1884) – a respected scholar of the Talmud, a person of exceptional humility and wisdom. Masovia was the true homeland for Cylkow’s family – since the 30s of the 19th century, they divided their time between Bieżuń, Warsaw and Kuchary (currently called Kuchary Żydowskie), where Izaak’s father was a teacher and administrator of Salomon Posner’s estate. Both Bieżuń and Kuchary are located by the same beautiful river Wkra, surrounded by swamps and meadows…

CYLKOW’S TORAH

Creation and significance of Cylkow’s Torah

Dr Izaak Cylkow began his work on direct translations of biblical books to the Polish language already during the 80s of the 19th century. In 1883, “Psalms”, “translated and elucidated by Dr. J. Cylkow”, were published by Aleksander Gins’ printer’s shop.

However, translating the Torah – the first five books of the Hebrew Bible, which constitute the very foundation of Judaism – was the Warsaw-based rabbi’s most important initiative. And so, in 1985, “Moses’ Pentateuch”, “translated and elucidated according to the best sources by Dr I. Cylkow”, was published in 1895 in Cracow. The book’s publishing was “funded by the Translator”.

    Masovia...

    This land, so pure, as if swept with angel wings
    quiet and flat, having suffered so much – always innocent
    it trusts that goodness is simply goodness, and that law is such
    like fields gleaming, like rye growing, like winter snow.
