Why is this New Testament different from all other New Testaments? Because the Jewish New Testament expresses its original and essential Jewishness. The New Testament is a Jewish book--by Jews, mostly about Jews, and for Jews as well as Gentiles. Its central figure, the Messiah Yeshua (Jesus), was and is a Jew. Vicarious atonement, salvation, immersion (baptism), the new covenant and the very concept of a Messiah are all Jewish. In sum, the New Testament is built upon and completes the Hebrew Scriptures. Updated with Book Introductions.

Why is this New Testament different from all other New Testaments? Because the Jewish New Testament expresses its original and essential Jewishness. The New Testament is a Jewish book--by Jews, mostly about Jews, and for Jews as well as Gentiles. Its central figure, the Messiah Yeshua (Jesus), was and is a Jew.Vicarious atonement, salvation, immersion (baptism), the new covenant and the very concept of a Messiah are all Jewish. In sum, the New Testament is built upon and completes the Hebrew Scriptures. The Jewish New Testament brings out Jewishness in three ways: - Cosmetically--by using neutral terms and Hebrew names: "execution-stake," not "cross"; "Ya'akov," not "James." - Culturally and Religiously--by highlighting Jewish features: "Chanukkah," not "the feast of dedication"; "tzitzit," not "fringe." - Theologically--by correcting mistranslations resulting from anti-Jewish theological bias; for example, at Romans 10:4 the Messiah is "the goal at which the Torah aims," not "the end of the law." Freshly rendered from the original Greek into enjoyable modern English by a Messianic Jew (a Jew who honors Yeshua as the Messiah of Israel), the "Jewish New Testament" challenges Jews to understand that Yeshua is a friend to every Jewish heart and the New Testament a Jewish book filled with truths to be accepted and acted upon. At the same time, while reaffirming the equality of Gentiles and Jews in the Messianic Community, it challenges Christians to acknowledge the Jewishness of their faith and their oneness with the Jewish people.

This New Testament version communicates its original, essential Jewishness. Highlights Jewish references and corrects mistranslations. Freshly translated into English from Greek.

A book the whole Church needs to read A challenge to conventional Christian ideas Clear thinking about neglected questions such as: - What central truth, ignored for 1,800 years, must be restored if the Church is to fulfill the Great Commission? - How are both the Jews and the Church God's people? - Is there a difference between Jew and Gentile in the body of the Messiah? - Will God fulfill all of his promises to the Jews? - Does the Law of Moses remain in force today? - Is the Church anti-Semitic? If so, what can you do about it? - Should the Church evangelize Jews today? If so, how? Surprising answers to these and other crucial questions, along with suggestions for godly action, are given in this exciting and insightful book by an Israeli Messianic Jew, a Jew who trusts Yeshua (Jesus).

In the first century of the Common Era, tens of thousands of Jewish people followed Yeshua (Jesus), believing him to be the promised Messiah of Israel. They didn't renounce their heritage, their customs, nor their people. They remained Jews. Two thousand years later, hundreds of thousands of Jewish people follow Yeshua, also believing that he is the Messiah. They, too, have not renounced their heritage, customs, nor their people. Messianic Judaism is the modern movement that is bringing it all together, for Jews and non-Jews.

Contemplate the power in these words anytime, anywhere Psalms-Tehillim offers uplifting words of praise and gratitude, expressing the majesty of God, along with a sense of God's nature as a shepherd. God is thus the transcendent creator, as well as the personal caretaker. No collection of writings has captured so well these two aspects of God. Proverbs-Mishlei gives us the wisdom for daily living, renewing our minds by leading us to examine our actions, to discern good from evil, and to decide freely to do the good. Many of the truths in the Bible are like gold buried deep underground that take effort to dig out and understand. But the Book of Proverbs is like a mountain stream, littered with nuggets, just waiting to be picked up. Since there are 31 proverbs, you could choose one proverb a day and look for these nuggets that will enrich your life.
