Chaldee BIBLES.—are only the glosses or expositions made by the Jews in the time when they spoke the Chaldee tongue. These they call by the name of Targumim, or paraphrases, as not being any strict versions of the Scripture. They have been inserted entire in the Jacobean Hebrew Bibles of Venice and Basel; but are read more commodiously in the Polyglots, being there attended with a Latin translation.
