Must Know
The fact that along with the Masoretic Text and the Targum Onkelos to Aramaic (from the 3rd century) it also includes the Judeo-Arabic translation by Saadia Gaon (882-942) and the translation into Judeo-Persian by Yaacov Taves (16th century) attests to the broad geographical distribution the Pentateuch was destined to have.
