Read in Russian the new testament of David Stern. Jewish New Testament

October 4, 2017

This article focuses on the restored version of the New Testament. Many today are interested in restorative translations of the New Testament. What do people want to see and read there? This is a personal matter for everyone. The task of the restorers is to convey to society the important elements of the teaching that was from the beginning.

The Christian restored New Testament does not exist

Those who seek the Christian New Testament, which, in their opinion, is translated from the original, should immediately be disappointed. There are no originals. It's time to understand. Even such a person with a big name in Christianity as A. Men said that there are no originals.

Historically, they simply could not survive. Perhaps somewhere there are copies closer to the originals, most likely in the Vatican archives, which are classified as secret. Therefore, the church fathers closed access for their pasture to the truth. Apparently, it is not beneficial for them that Christians know the truth. If they find out the truth, Christianity, as a religious empire, will simply cease to exist. Therefore, it is based on ignorance, on deceit.

Hebrew translation of the New Testament by D. Stern

If we talk about the Jewish translation of the New Testament by David Stern, then the very essence of the teaching in it does not differ much from the Christian one. The difference is only in visual perception - Christian terms, titles and names are replaced by Jewish ones. The Tanakhic teaching in it remains just as distorted as in the Christian New Testament. But it is not all that bad.

David Stern did a tremendous job in order to return the Brit Hadash to a Jewish appearance. Probably no one else would have done it. Therefore, his work should be recognized as blessed by Jehovah.

It is his work that the NEW editors use to restore the original meaning of Brit Hadash, when the letters of the apostles had not yet been touched by the hand of Christian politicians.

Jewish translation of the New Testament by D. Stern in the NEW edition

According to the teachings of the Torah, the Prophets and the Scriptures, work is underway to restore (restoration) the spiritual part of Brit Hadash. The Hebrew translation of the New Testament with partially edited texts can already be read in the section.

The reader can compare the Synodal translation, the D. Stern Translation and the Hebrew translation of the New Testament in the NEW edition. You will see that there is a difference.

Attention should be paid to this

One of the important edited places is . More details about this in a separate article at the link.

Many other places edited and corrected. Religious Christian cult words, such as the cross, baptism, Lord, Christ, Jesus, etc., disappeared. They were replaced by Jewish ones.

Texts that clearly reflect Orthodox teaching or general Christian dogmas were put in order.

The quotations that are given in the New Testament from the Torah, Prophets and Scriptures are inscribed in the original version from the Tanakh so that the reader knows how this text sounds in the original (Tanakh).

For those who use Windows OS, there is a . The texts in it are periodically updated in accordance with the corrections and elimination of various types of errors.

For comparison, three passages. The last option indicates that the true God is not Jesus Christ, but Jehovah.

Synodal translation of the New Testament

Jewish New Testament by D. Stern

Jewish New Testament NEV Edition

19 We know that we are from God and that the whole world lies in evil.

20 We also know that the Son of God has come and given us light and understanding, so that we may know the true God and be in His true Son, Jesus Christ. This is the true God and eternal life.

21 Children! keep yourself from idols. Amen.

(1 John 5:19-21)

19. We know that we are from God, and that the whole world lies in the power of the Evil One.

20. And we also know that the Son of God came and gave us discernment, that we might know who is true; moreover, we are in union with the One who is true, being one with His Son, Yeshua the Messiah. He is the true God and eternal life.

21. Children, beware of false gods!

19 We know that we are from Jehovah Elohim, and that the whole world lies in the power of the Evil One.

20 And we also know that the son of Elohim came and gave us discernment, that we might know the True Elohim from idols; moreover, we are in union with Him who is true, being one with His son, Yeshua ha-Mashiach. This Elohim is the True one. He is [our] eternal life.

21 Therefore, children, beware of false angels!

Initially, David Stern uses Hebraized language, which is logical. It has “Kefa” instead of “Peter” and, of course, “Messiah Yeshua” instead of “Jesus Christ”, etc.

However, it is not easy for a Russian-speaking Christian to read such a text, therefore, a “translation” is made in our text, i.e. “Kefa” becomes “Peter” again, and “Yeshua” becomes “Jesus”, but when hovering over words marked with *, hints are shown - Jewish variants. In addition, those who wish to read the Hebraized version can use the Hebrew New Testament Commentaries. The text is in the original.

The Jewish New Testament appeared as a result of writing a commentary

In fact, my original idea in 1977 was to write a commentary on the New Testament that would deal with Jewish topics. But after I made a rough draft of a commentary on several chapters of the Book of Acts, I realized that most of my work consisted of my objections to the way certain passages were translated in the English Bible that I used: “The translation says A , but in fact the Greek original means B". Instead of wasting readers' time by criticizing third parties (translators), I decided to try to translate the New Testament from Greek myself and found that the result of this attempt pleased me.

This is how the Jewish New Testament appeared, the need for which matured in the process of compiling a commentary to it. Since then I have been basing my commentary on the Hebrew New Testament and looking at what I believe to be erroneous translations in different versions of the Bible, which become apparent when compared with what the New Testament actually says (i.e. what it says). speaks in my understanding).

Jewish New Testament

Since KERNZ is based on ENZ, I think it would be appropriate to say a few words about it. The Jewish New Testament reflects the inherent Jewish essence of the New Testament in three ways, which I call cosmetic (or external), cultural-religious, and theological.

  • Cosmetic elements, such as the use of the words "execution stand" instead of "cross". "Kefa" instead of "Peter" and, of course, "Messiah Yeshua" instead of "Jesus Christ" are the most noticeable, and the frequency of their use will create an overall effect.
  • Cultural-religious elements immerse the gospel in a Jewish setting; two examples can be given here: the use of the word tzitzit instead of the expression "hem of the garment" in Matityahu (Matthew) 9:20 when describing what the woman who was suffering from bleeding touched, and the word Hanukkah instead of the expression "feast of renewal" in the Gospel of Yohanan (John ).
  • One example of theological elements is the translation in Messianic Hebrews (Hebrews) showing that the New Testament was not just "established" but "given as Torah", and also the translation in Romans 10:4: "The purpose, for which the Torah points out is the Messiah,” but not “Christ is the end of the law.”

We bring to your attention the NEW book by Barney Kasdan "Traditions appointed by God".

The view of the Messianic Jew on the biblical cycle of life and its connection with the way of life of a believing person. This book explains how God-ordained traditions can be part of the daily life of both Jew and non-Jew. This is especially true for those who believe in Messiah Yeshua, since Yeshua (Jesus) Himself observed them.

We bring to your attention a new book by Dr. Mitch Glazer "Isaiah 53. The chapter that will change your life."

The book is devoted to the study of the 53rd chapter of the book of the prophet Isaiah, and the book also contains testimonies of Jews who accepted Yeshua as the Messiah.

"Isaiah 53" presents the Tanakh story in clear and simple language, explaining in practice how to establish a personal relationship with God. This book presents an amazing key that opens before us the limitless possibilities of personal relationship with the Creator.

How is this New Testament different from the rest? The fact that the Jewish New Testament reflects the original and inalienable Jewish essence. Almost all other translations of the New Testament - and there are literally hundreds of them - present its message in a pagan-Christian linguistic, cultural and theological package.

Three ways in which the Jewish essence of the New Testament is revealed. This translation reflects the Jewish essence in three ways: cosmetic, cultural-religious and theological. 1) Cosmetic way. The names "Jesus", "John", "Jacob" and "Peter" have been changed to "Yeshua", "Yochanan", "Jacob" and "Kefa". Semitic terms are used instead of some Russian words: for example, "talmid" instead of "student" and "do tzedaka" instead of "do good." 2) Cultural-religious way. Cultural-religious changes make the reader even more deeply aware that the events of the New Testament took place in a Jewish cultural and religious setting. For example, in Mattityahu 9:20, where the woman who wanted to be healed not only touched Yeshua's "hems of the garment," but his "tzitzit," the ritual fringe that Jewish men were supposed to wear at the corners of their clothes. 3) Theological way. The theological change is most profound, as pagan Christian doctrines infiltrated New Testament translations that downplayed the role of the Jewish people as the people of God, the significance of the fact that the Torah was still valid.

Professor David Stern, a Messianic Jew living in Jerusalem, explains these and other difficult questions in his commentary on the Jewish New Testament. This book complements his widely acclaimed edition of the Hebrew New Testament. He offers an interesting and original way of understanding the New Testament from a Jewish perspective. David Stern spent many years researching and comparing the text of the New Testament with the Tanakh (Old Testament) in a historical context in the light of rabbinic materials and Christian theology.

David Stern demonstrates that the Jewish New Testament upholds Jewish values ​​and affirms such values ​​as the unity of God, the chosenness of Israel, the holiness of the Torah, and the importance of the works of faith, along with faith itself. He also shows how the New Testament explains contemporary issues such as assimilation, marriage between Jews and non-Jews, and anti-Semitism. One of the advantages of this commentary is that the author, using the terms of the Greek language and Hebrew, features of Judaism and the culture of the Jews of the first century AD, explains the apparent contradictions between the New Testament and the Tanakh (Old Testament).

The Jewish New Testament and Jewish New Testament Commentary allows Christians to rediscover their connection to Israel, the Jewish Scriptures, and the Jewish Messiah. These two books should be the reference book for every believer who wants to better understand the Bible.

The book by S. Polonsky "Here are the Names", published in 2004, explores the meanings of names in the Bible. All biblical names have specific meanings and they are not abstract. They expand the horizons of the events taking place in the Bible. The names of the righteous reveal to us the nature of God himself and his manifestations, while the names of the villains reflect the characteristics of the devil. The ancient Jewish sages and Jewish commentators carefully studied the meanings of biblical names, trying to find in them allusions to the coming deliverance of Israel - the coming of the Messiah.

The Commentary on the Jewish New Testament deals with "Jewish questions" raised by readers of the New Testament: Jewish questions about Yeshua (Jesus), the New Testament, and Christianity; Christian questions about Judaism and the Jewish roots of their faith; and questions from Messianic Jews about what it means to be a Jew and at the same time follow the Messiah.

Mind-changing commentary

Many people who read the New Testament are prejudiced against the Jewish topic. Sometimes the reason for this is a lack of awareness, sometimes - the peculiarities of education. But in any case, the purpose of my commentary is to acquaint readers more deeply with Jewish issues and thereby help them change their attitude.

For this reason, I call it a "mind-changing" comment. It offers information that allows the reader to come to unexpected conclusions. After reading it, the reader should realize that the New Testament is a Jewish book, written by Jews, primarily about Jews and addressed to both Jews and Gentiles.

Jews should know that the New Testament speaks of Yeshua of Nazareth (Nazareth) as the son of David, the long-awaited Messiah of Israel, vital for Jews to achieve both personal salvation and the salvation of the entire Jewish community. Christians must clearly realize that they are forever one with the Jewish people and that the New Testament will not provide any grounds for the manifestation of anti-Semitism in any of its forms.

What kind of comments are you reading here?

In order to carry out the tasks assigned to it, KENZ uses various approaches to the text, some of which are more well-known, and others less. They include:

  • Historical commentaries consider the conditions in which the author of the text is located, the topic under discussion, then to whom the text was originally addressed. Often the focus is on the Jewish historical features underlying the text.
  • Linguistic commentaries explain the nuances associated with the grammar of the Greek language, reveal the meaning of some Greek words, and also explain the Hebrew expressions, grammatical structures and paradigms of thought that underlie the Greek text.
  • Exegetical comments (interpretations) reveal the meaning of the text. They are necessary, since the text is often unclear to the modern reader due to a misunderstanding of the context of the original source. Also, I use this trick if the text is being misinterpreted by Christians or Jews, or both. In such cases, I must show that the traditional understanding is wrong and also explain why my translation or interpretation is correct.

I. WHY THE JEWISH NEW TESTAMENT?

How is this New Testament different from all the others? The fact that the Jewish New Testament reflects its original and inalienable Jewish essence. Almost all other translations of the New Testament - and there are literally hundreds of them - present his message in a pagan-Christian linguistic, cultural and theological package 1 .

What's wrong with that? Nothing! After all, although the gospel has Jewish roots, it is intended not only for Jews, but also for Gentiles. The New Testament itself is clear about this 2 , so it is perfectly acceptable that its message be conveyed to non-Jews in a way that would carry with it a minimum of alien cultural baggage 3 . This approach became very successful: millions of Gentiles believed in the God of Avraham, Yitzchak and Yaakov and in the Jewish Messiah, Yeshua 4 .

1-Exceptions: The Book of Life (Nashville: Thomas Nelson, 1982) and The Living Bible: Messianic Edition (Wheaton, Illinois: Tyndale House, 1984) by Sid Roth's Messianic Jews and David Bronstein Jr. are adaptations of already existing English translations. The Original New Testament (San Francisco: Harper & Row, 1985) is a revised and revised edition of Hugh Sconfield's earlier translation, The Authentic New Testament (1955); Sconfield accepted Yeshua as his Messiah in his youth, but later apostatized. A translation by the Messianic Jew G.W. Cassirer.
