| abstract
| - The Complete Jewish Bible (CJB) is a Bible translated by Dr. David H. Stern in English. It consists of both the Old Testament Tanakh and includes his original Jewish New Testament (JNT) translation as one book. The Old Testament is a paraphrase of the 1917 Jewish Publication Society version of the Tanakh. The New Testament is an original translation from the ancient Greek. It claims to be "Jewish in manner and presentation." Stern claims his purpose for producing the Complete Jewish Bible was "to restore God’s Word to its original Jewish context and culture as well as be in easily read modern English". This translation was also intended that it be fully functional for Messianic synagogues where the B’rit Hadashah (New Testament) is read as well as the Torah and the Prophets (Old Testament portions). The books of the Tanakh are placed in the same order as a Jewish Bible, unlike that of a Christian Bible translation of its equivalent Old Testament. The names of the books are Jewish along with their English names (if different). Semitic names are used for people and places. It also incorporates Hebrew and Yiddish expressions that Stern refers to as “Jewish English”. Another book by Stern is a verse by verse Jewish New Testament Commentary.
