In the years since the initial publication of The Jewish Annotated New Testament (JANT) in 2011, interest among scholars and general readers in the Jewish roots of the early Jesus movement and the ongoing influence that Jewish thought and experience have had on Christian history has only grown. In that time, JANT has established itself as an essential resource for anyone, of any faith or none, interested in the New Testament and the world from which it emerged. This third edition incorporates the newly released New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition of the New Testament. In addition, the annotations and essays have been thoroughly revised and greatly expanded, and ten new essays have been added, covering topics such as sin, purity, and Judas Iscariot. At a time when dialogue between Christianity and Judaism, its "older brother," is increasingly important, JANT is both enlightening and necessary for all those interested in the wider view of the New Testament, inter-religious dialogue, and cooperation between these formative faith movements in Western and world culture.

Three men, each in his own way, made Israel happen. Their names were David Ben-Gurion, Menachem Begin, and Avraham Stern. All three were visionary and pragmatic leaders. The author, raised during Israel's War for Independence, has interacted with both Ben-Gurion and Begin. He shows how all three, who came as young men from Poland at different times, reclaimed their ancestral land and enabled their people to come back to life out of the ashes of the Holocaust. Israel has become a thriving and dynamic state which, despite all its problems and shortcomings, has signed peace treaties with two of its neighbors, Egypt and Jordan, and continues to look for a lasting solution to the century-old Arab-Israeli conflict. The author discusses the continuing impact of all three on the character of the state, and offers insights into the problems of the Middle East and a new path to resolving the Palestinian-Israeli conflict.

The Book of Ezekiel is often characterized as verbose and prosaic in style, filled with secondary additions and glossaries, and more the product of a later school than of the prophet. By making use of modern studies in the Northwest Semitic languages, particularly in their commonly-held elements of rhetorical and poetic style, a clearer portrait of the individual style and method of the prophet Ezekiel will emerge. Indexed.
