Jewish Virtual Library is an encyclopedia covering a great swath of general
knowledge dealing with Jewish subjects, events, personalities and the like.
It's an easier and more accessible version of the Encyclopedia Judaica.
Actually, many of their cited resources are from the Encyclopedia
Judaica.Sefaria, on the other hand, is a compendium of the Tanach, plus many
other Sifrei Kodesh such as Midrash, Mussar, Responsa. It offers many
commentaries and, in many cases, it offers both text and commentaries in
English translation as well as the original Hebrew. It is an ongoing work,
constantly adding more commentaries and offering more translations as they are
made available. It is an incredible resource.They really serve completely
different purposes and are both very useful. I hope this helps.Bruchie
