Jewish scholars and many other people are aware that the Torah (the Five Books of Moses) is only the first portion of the Hebrew Scriptures. Indeed, the Jewish Scriptures, known as the Tanakh, comprise three parts - the Torah, the Prophets, and the Writings - and observant Jews wouldn't dream of calling any part of them the Old Testament. These three portions contain God's commandments, a constitution for His people, prophesies for the future, and perspectives on history and life. And you'd be surprised what a difference a translation can make; the Jewish and Christian bibles have many things in common, but there are significant differences. The Complete Idiot's Guide to Hebrew Scriptureis a revelation for both Jews and Christians!

Meet the Rabbis explains to the reader how rabbinic thought was relevant to Jesus and the New Testament world, and hence should be relevant to those people today who read the New Testament. In this sense, rabbinic thought is relevant to every aspect of modern life. Rabbinic literature explores the meaning of living life to its fullest, in right relationship with God and humanity. However, many Christians are not aware of rabbinic thought and literature. Indeed, most individuals in the Western world today, regardless of whether they are Christians, atheists, agnostics, secular community leaders, or some other religious and political persuasions, are more knowledgeable of Jesus' ethical teachings in the Sermon the Mount than the Ethics of the Fathers in a Jewish prayer book. The author seeks to introduce the reader to the world of Torah learning. It is within this world that the authentic cultural background of Jesus' teachings in ancient Judaism is revealed. Young uses parts of the New Testament, especially the Sermon on the Mount, as a springboard for probing rabbinic method. The book is an introduction to rabbinic thought and literature and has three main sections in its layout: Introduction to Rabbinic Thought, Introduction to Rabbinic Literature, and Meet the Rabbis, a biographical description of influential Rabbis from Talmudic sources.
