 EXAMPLE

      Amidah

      Haggadah

      Maḥzor

In the case of the Bible, it is explicitly mentioned in RDA 6.30.3.2 that the date may be added.

Language of Expression (RDA 6.11, 6.27.3, LC-PCC PS for 6.27.3): If the Hagaddah is a translation, add the name of the language in subfield $l to the authorized access point for the work.

130 0_ Haggadah. ǂl English.

If the Hagaddah contains the original expression (Hebrew) and a translation, give analytical authorized access points for the original expression and the translation.

130 0_ Haggadah.

730 02 Haggadah. ǂl English.

PCC members have the option to further differentiate translations (e.g. ǂs (last name of translator, editor, whoever)) until such time as the PS is revised.  Yale policy is to follow LC practice for now, which is to not exercise the option to further differentiate translations. However if there is a pcc-created AR with ǂs, LC practice is to accept the additional qualifier.  (LC-PCC PS for 6.27.3)
