Although major New Testament figures--Jesus and Paul, Peter and James, Jesus'        mother Mary and Mary Magdalene--were Jews, living in a culture steeped in Jewish        history, beliefs, and practices, there has never been an edition of the New        Testament that addresses its Jewish background and the culture from which it        grew--until now. In The Jewish Annotated New Testament, eminent experts under the        general editorship of Amy-Jill Levine and Marc Z. Brettler put these writings back        into the context of their original authors and audiences. And they explain how these        writings have affected the relations of Jews and Christians over the past two        thousand years.An international team of scholars introduces and annotates the        Gospels, Acts, Letters, and Revelation from Jewish perspectives, in the New Revised        Standard Version translation. They show how Jewish practices and writings,        particularly the Greek translation of the Hebrew Bible, influenced the New Testament        writers. From this perspective, readers gain new insight into the New Testament's        meaning and significance. In addition, thirty essays on historical and religious        topics--Divine Beings, Jesus in Jewish thought, Parables and Midrash, Mysticism,        Jewish Family Life, Messianic Movements, Dead Sea Scrolls, questions of the New        Testament and anti-Judaism, and others--bring the Jewish context of the New        Testament to the fore, enabling all readers to see these writings both in their        original contexts and in the history of interpretation. For readers unfamiliar with        Christian language and customs, there are explanations of such matters as the        Eucharist, the significance of baptism, and "e;original sin."e;For non-Jewish readers        interested in the Jewish roots of Christianity and for Jewish readers who want a New        Testament that neither proselytizes for Christianity nor denigrates Judaism, The        Jewish Annotated New Testament is an essential volume that places these writings in        a context that will enlighten students, professionals, and general readers.
