ISBN: 9780062560155.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe editors of The\nJewish Annotated New Testament show how and why\nJews and Christians read many of the same Biblical texts – including passages\nfrom the Pentateuch, the Prophets, and the Psalms – differently. Exploring and\nexplaining these diverse perspectives, they reveal more clearly Scripture’s\nbeauty and power.\n\nEsteemed Bible scholars and teachers Amy-Jill Levine and Marc Z. Brettler take\nreaders on a guided tour of the most popular Hebrew Bible passages quoted in\nthe New Testament to show what the texts meant in their original contexts and\nthen how Jews and Christians, over time, understood those same texts. Passages include\nthe creation of the world, the role of Adam and Eve, the Suffering Servant of\nIsiah, the book of Jonah, and Psalm 22, whose words, “My God, my God, why have\nyou forsaken me,” Jesus quotes as he dies on the cross.\n\nComparing various interpretations –\nhistorical, literary, and theological - of each ancient text, Levine and\nBrettler offer deeper understandings of the original narratives and their many\nafterlives. They show how the text speaks to different generations under\nchanged circumstances, and so illuminate the Bible’s ongoing significance. By\nunderstanding the depth and variety by which these passages have been, and can\nbe, understood, The Bible With and Without Jesus does more than enhance\nour religious understandings, it helps us to see the Bible as a source of\ninspiration for any and all readers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"HarperOne","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45254039502901,"sku":"ByrdShop_0062560158","price":41.13,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780062560155_f9b0e968-f4b6-4fbc-9f5f-c848516531eb.jpg?v=1779953586","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/the-bible-with-and-without-jesus-how-jews-and-christians-read-the-same-stories-differently-9780062560155","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
