Yes the Bible can be translated but any translation of anything loses some meaning. Translating a text as old as the Bible which often doesn't make much sense to modern Hebrew readers loses even more. One problem is that it makes the text look more certain to some Christians etc. than it is. There are some better (e.g. Everett Fox) and worse translations but really a translation needs some commentary and footnotes. Jewish tradition certainly didn't reject translation historically or we wouldn't have the Aramaic translations for example. But their readers were aware that it wasn't the original. Of course translating into Aramaic is easier than into Greek or English. From my perspective the Aramaic translators probably didn't have a lot of clues either about what the original authors intended as they were removed up to 1000 years + from then. David
