| Â | The Jewish Study Bible: Tanakh Translation, Torah, Nevi'Im, Kethuvim |
| | The volume concludes with 200-pages worth of essays: 7 on Jewish interpretation of the Bible; 8 on the Bible in Jewish life and thought; and 9 on backgrounds for reading the Bible (some of which are adaptations of essays found in Oxford's Annotated Bible). | | | While it is impossible for any one-volume work to do more than scratch the surface of Jewish Bible scholarship throughout the ages, the Jewish Study Bible provides an introduction for Jews, and others who are interested in Judaism, to Jewish Bible study. | | | This is certainly not the book for Religious Jews or anyone who seeks to experience Judaism spiritually. |

| Â | The Tanakh |
| | Though the word "Bible" is commonly used by non-Jews -- as are the terms "Old Testament" and "New Testament" -- the appropriate term to use for the Hebrew scriptures ("scripture" is a synonym used by both Jews and non-Jews) is Tanakh. | | | This word is derived from the Hebrew letters of its three components: | | | Also, many Christian Bibles have expanded versions of several of these books (Ester, Ezra, Daniel, Jeremiah and Chronicles) including extra material that is not accepted as canonical in Judaism. |

| Â | Hebrew Bible |
| | Hebrew Bible refers to the textual canon of the Jewish Tanakh, which contains books that were originally written mainly in the Hebrew language. | | | (There are two books, Daniel and Ezra, that have parts in Aramaic, but even they are written in the same Hebrew script.) Nearly all Hebrew Bibles since the Middle Ages reflect the Masoretic Text. | | | The Hebrew Bible includes the same books as the Protestant version of the Old Testament, but not the deuterocanonical portions of the Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox versions. |
