Complete
Jewish Bible : An English Version of the Tanakh
(Old Testament) and B'Rit Hadashah (New Testament)
by David H. Stern (Translator)
For those who have enjoyed Dr.
Stern's Jewish New Testament you will be pleased
to hear that the Complete Jewish Bible has been
completed. This Bible provides a comprehensive
introduction, explaining how this Bible came to
be and how to get the most out of reading it;
an excellent pronunciation glossary; and detailed
maps to aid in understanding historical events.
A unique feature of this translation is that it
follows the Hebrew Bible order of the Tanakh -
the order with which Jesus (Yeshua) was familiar.
I makes no separation between the Old and New
Testaments. The Complete Jewish Bible shows that
the Word of God, from Genesis to Revelation, is
a unified book.
The Complete Jewish Bible not
only offers insight into the Bible's original
culture and language, but also corrects theology
that was based on anti-Semitic, anti-Torah mindset.

The
Book of God by Walter, Jr. Wangerin (Commentary)
Here is the story of the Bible
from beginning to end as you've never read it
before - told with exciting detail and passionate
energy. The Book of God reads like a fine novel,
bringing a wise and beautiful rendering of the
Bible, retold by master storyteller Walter Wangerin,
Jr. Wangerin recreates the high drama, low comedy,
gentle humor, and awesome holiness of the Bible
story. Imaginative yet meticulously researched,
The Book of God offers a sweeping history that
stretches across thousands of years and hundreds
of lives, in cultures foreign and yet familiar
in their common humanity. History and fact take
on personality and warmth. Wangerin shows you
human hands - Abraham raising the knife over his
son Isaac on Mount Moriah, a priest offering incense
in the temple at Jerusalem, Joseph the carpenter
at work with his tools. He shows you human faces
- Moses and Aaron face-to-face with the king of
Egypt, Mary smiling like a white rose, and Jesus
laughing with a Samaritan woman. Gardens, humble
homes, olive groves, palaces, temples, and the
hills of Judea shining in the afternoon sun -
Wangerin makes the places where the events of
the Bible took place come to life in the imagination.
Paperback: 640 pages; (February 1, 1998).
