Abstract

The Jerusalem Bible is a respected modern Catholic translation of the Scripture. It was prepared by the Dominican Biblical School in Jerusalem founded in 1890, a French translation was issued in 1956 and was called La Bible de Jerusalem. It is based on the Hebrew and Greek. The Czech translation was made based on comparisons of the French version and original biblical languages. In this article I try to show how the French Biblical School worked on the translation of the text from the Hebrew original. Especially I chose the text of the book of Genesis 1,2.
