The Jewish Annotated New Testament (ed. Amy-Jill Levine and Marc Zvi Brettler; Oxford University Press, 2011)

Our new Jewish-Xn dialogue consultation will be hosting a panel review of this new volume. It is no hyperbole to say that this is a landmark study. It is the first New Testament that has been annotated and edited (including short topical essays) all by Jewish scholars. It will provide a fascinating opportunity to discuss sacred texts.
