Scholars explained that this can be attributed to the fact that the Bible is a popular book among the Jewish communities in Germany and surrounding European countries and it was also a reference for the early education of young Jews there.
There were different translation style such as the so-called Ashkenazi literary tradition, more popularly known as "taytsh-khumesh", which translated the Bible literally. Here, the words in the Hebrew original were translated into their Yiddish counterparts. While this method was widely criticized, mainly for its strict adherence to the literal meaning of the text, it proved useful particularly for theologians and Hebraists who needed sources in their effort to understand of the literal sense of the Bible.

His translation is considered to be the most comprehensive and was published under his pen name Yehoesh. The text is regarded as both literary and scholarly, influenced the work of Yiddish scholars in the nineteenth century.
