The Complete Jewish Bible — David H. Stern (Updated, Paperback)
The translation that put the Tanakh and the New Covenant writings into one volume and gave them back their Jewish vocabulary. Names are transliterated from the Hebrew — Yeshua, Moshe, Yochanan, Sha'ul — and the books of the Tanakh appear in their traditional Jewish order rather than the Christian one.
For a great many households this was the first Bible that read the way their faith actually sounded. If you buy one book from this shop, it is probably this one.
