Invaluable

The Bible is the most sacred book of the Jewish and Christian religions. The Bible is the most widely read book in history. More copies have been distributed of The Bible than of any other work. It has been translated more times into more languages than any other book. Countless people have turned to the Bible for comfort, hope and guidance during times of trouble and uncertainty.Unfortunately, few are actually familiar with its contents. In this phenomenal work, Philip Birnbaum creates an easy to read, translation of the Hebrew Bible-the Tanach , from a Jewish perspective, editing out repetitions in the translations and doing away with the obscurity and confusions created by 'Bible English'.It is an invaluable account for anyone, Jew or Gentile, who wants the Hebrew Bible at their fingertips, and it is astonishing to see the remarkable relevance of this work to the world of today , where the same battles are being repeated.
