The New Testament is a Jewish book, written by Jews. The central figure was a Jew, and most of His early followers were Jews. Yet no translation, except this one, really communicates the essential and original Jewishness of the original New Testament writings. It highlights Jewish features and references, and corrects mistranslations resulting from anti-Jewish theological bias. Freshly rendered from the original Greek into enjoyable modern English by a Messianic Jew, 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. It challenges Christians to acknowledge the Jewishness of their faith and their oneness with the Jewish people.
