1.0 out of 5 stars In Hebrew "Judith" is feminine for "Judas", June 2, 2005

A friend with a Hebrew doctorate noted to me: "There is no feminine form of the name 'Jesus' (or 'Joshua'). 'Judith' is the feminine form of the name 'Juda' - or 'Judas.'"
How perfectly fitting!

1.0 out of 5 stars Interesting..., June 3, 2005

Being a guy who collects books, I picked up this book from a friend of mine who just got it. I wanted to see the hubbub over what this was.

First things first: I own a copy of the Jefferson Bible. This book, the supposed next step in this series, goes a far ways from the Jeffersonian tradition...which in itself is steeped heavily in Unitarianism (as that is what Jefferson was).

Next: Judith? The name means: "Woman from Judah". However, Jesus (if one remembers correctly) was raised in (and is considered from) Gallilee, which is in the north. Talk about a bad step in the wrong direction.

Finally: Switching from male to female causes a hell of a lot of translation errors. Trust the greek, it's much more ACCURATE.

If 0 stars were available, I would give it. But since there are not...I give it one star with a hole underneath it.

I am honestly trying to figure out if this is a joke or not. God's word is not a political statement that can have a new spin made on it. And what's the reason? Jesus Christ was radical in his treatment of women (such as talking to the Samaritan woman in John 4:7-30, who the Jewish people of the day would not talk to due to sexism and racism, and allowing the unclean woman with a flow of blood to touch him in Matthew 9:20-22). Even the apostles treated woman as equals, as Paul wrote in Galatians 3:27-29. The idea that a new Bible is needed to promote women's rights and empowerment is built on the false assumption that the Bible keeps women down. God is no respecter of persons.

Those who published and sent out this book should realize that they will be held responsible for anyone who is led astray by this book, as will anyone who uses it to teach others a lie about God. Please take some time to read even just those three passages cited above (in the New International Version, or New King James Version, or New American Standard Bible). God's truth is that he accepts all who come to him and seek him, granting eternal life to those who trust in the name of his only son Jesus Christ. God wants to be reunited with you and has his arms open to accept you. Please don't wait until it is too late.
