Menucha established itself as an independent publishing company while continuing to distribute original Targum titles.

[2] Targum Press was founded in 1984 by the late Rabbi Moshe Dombey, at the time a lecturer at yeshiva Ohr Somayach and Neve Yerushalayim seminary.

Since its inception, Targum relied on Feldheim Publishers as its distributor;[3][better source needed] however, it proved too costly.

In 2008, they turned to Menucha Publishers, owned by Hirsch Meir Traub, to run all of the American distribution.

Secular books are rated on a scale of one to four, considerations being references to non-Jewish holidays, Christianity, internet and television, and language considered improper according to some standards.
