About the Complete Jewish Bible

Why is this Bible different from all other Bibles?

Because it is the only English version of the Bible fully Jewish in style and
presentation that includes both the Tanakh (“Old Testament”) and the B’rit
Hadashah (New Covenant, “New Testament”). Even its title, the Complete Jewish
Bible, challenges both Jews and Christians to see that the whole Bible is
Jewish, the B’rit Hadashah as well as the Tanakh. Jews are challenged by the
implication that without it the Tanakh is an incomplete Bible. Christians are
challenged with the fact that they are joined to the Jewish people through faith
in the Jewish Messiah, Yeshua (Jesus) — so that because Christianity can be
rightly understood only from a Jewish perspective, anti-Semitism is condemned
absolutely and forever. In short, the Complete Jewish Bible restores the Jewish
unity of the Bible. Also for the first time the information needed for the
synagogue readings from the Torah and the Prophets is completely integrated with
similar use of the B’rit Hadashah.

ABOUT THE TRANSLATOR

David H. Stern was born in Los
Angeles in 1935, the great-grandson of two of the city’s first twenty Jews. He
earned a Ph.D. in economics at Princeton University and was a professor at UCLA,
mountain-climber, co-author of a book on surfing, and owner of health-food
stores.
In 1972, he came to believe in Yeshua as the Messiah, after which he received a
Master of Divinity degree at Fuller Theological Seminary and did graduate work
at the University of Judaism. Dr. Stern taught Fuller Theological Seminary’s
first course in “Judaism and Christianity,” organized Messianic Jewish
conferences and leaders’ meetings, and was an officer of the Messianic Jewish
Alliance of America.
Dr. Stern is the author of Messianic Jewish Manifesto, which outlines the
destiny, identity, history, theology and program of today’s Messianic Jewish
movement. He also wrote Restoring the Jewishness of the Gospel: A Message for
Christians. It consists of excerpts from the former book selected for
Christians to whom the Jewishness of the Gospel is an unfamiliar idea.
His Jewish New Testament, which has been incorporated into the
Complete Jewish Bible, is the basis for its companion volume, the Jewish
New Testament Commentary. This book discusses Jewish issues raised in the
New Testament — questions Jews have about Yeshua, the New Testament and
Christianity; questions Christians have about Judaism and the Jewish roots of
their faith; and questions Messianic Jews have about their own identity and
role.
