Why is this Bible different from all other Bibles? Because it is the only English version fully Jewish in style and presentation. It includes Dr. Stern's newly updated version of the Tanakh ( Old Testament ) and his highly acclaimed Jewish New Testament.

The Complete Jewish Bible follows the Hebrew Bible order of the Tanakh's books, the order with which Yeshua (Jesus) was familiar and makes no separation between Old and New Testaments while also clarifying misunderstandings by recognizing the Jewish historical/ cultural background of the text.

Features:

• offers the original Hebrew names for people, places, and concepts, using easy-to-read English transliterations and pronunciations
• focuses on Messianic prophecy
• gives the traditional weekly and holiday synagogue readings, plus relevant readings from the B rit Hadashah (New Testament)
• reconnects Christians with their Jewish roots and the Jewish people
• connects Jews with the Jewishness of Messiah Yeshua and Messianic faith

• a reverse glossary
• and special maps to aid in Bible understanding.

The Complete Jewish Bible shows that the Word of God, from Genesis to Revelation, is a unified Jewish book meant for everyone, Jew and non-Jew alike.

Diverse perspectives about the messianic movement --- from six contributors. Are Messianic congregations necessary or should Jewish believers be incorporated into the Gentile church? This is the topic of the latest volume in the Counterpoints series.

Contemporary contributors who have lived and wrestled with this issue present informed arguments and counter-arguments. The book concludes with a chapter on the future for Messianic Jews and a directory of messianic movement organizations.
