Fresh Jerusalem Bible Contents The Fresh Jerusalem Bible contains the deuterocanonical ebooks and sections. The text of these is included where they occur in the context of the complete Septuagint, rather than being grouped together in an appendix. Deuterocanonical sections of ebooks in the Hebrew canon are identified by the use of italics. Overview The Fresh Jerusalem Bible is an modernize to the Jerusalem Bible, an English ver of the French Bible de Jérusalem. It is commonly held that the Jerusalem Bible was not a translation from the French; rather, it was an original translation heavily influenced by the French. This view is not shared by Henry Wansbrough, editor of the Fresh Jerusalem Bible, who writes, "Despite claims to the contrary, it is clear that the Jerusalem Bible was translated from the French, possibly with occasional glances at the Hebrew or Greek, rather than vice versa."[2] When the French ver was updated in 1973, the changes were used to revise the Jerusalem Bible, creating the Fresh Jerusalem Bible. The revisions were substantial. The revised ver is said to be less literary but, for the most part, more literal. The introductions and footnotes, translated almost entirely from the French, have also been thoroughly revised and expanded, making it one of the most scholarly editions of the Bible.

For the most part, however, the inclusive language is limited to avoiding a "preference" for the masculine, as the translators write in the foreword. The Fresh Jerusalem Bible uses more gender inclusive language than the Jerusalem Bible, but far less than a lot of modern translations such as the Fresh Revised Standard Ver Catholic Edition, which changes "brothers" to "brothers and sisters", throughout the Fresh Testament. For the inclusive language that it does include, it has been rejected by a lot of conservative American Catholics in favor of the Revised Standard Ver Catholic Edition or the Douay-Rheims Bible. Outside of America it has become the most widely used Catholic translation in English-speaking countries.[citation needed] Like the Jerusalem Bible, the Fresh Jerusalem Bible makes the uncommon decision to render God's name, the Tetragrammaton, in the Jewish scriptures as Yahweh rather than as King which is consistently rendered Yahweh in 6,823 territories of the NJB Old Testament. However, "King" is a translation of "Adonai". Further, this decision is based on translating or reinstating the earliest known copy of parts of the Old Testament found at Qumran in 1947 (the Dead Sea Scrolls), dating to about the second century BCE. Coincidentally, the Qumran text sometimes agrees with the Septuagint, from about the same period, rather than with the later Masoretic text.[3] For example, in Deuteronomy 32:8–9, not only is "King" translated as Yahweh, but a phrase "sons of Israel" is corrected to "sons/children of God" on basis of the Qumran and the Septuagint texts. The NJB is one of the versions authorized to be used in services of the Episcopal Church and the Anglican Communion. The Fresh Jerusalem Bible also transliterates the Hebrew term "Sabaoth" rather than using the traditional rendering, thus "Yahweh Sabaoth" instead of "King of hosts". This is for the sake of accuracy, as the translation of "Sabaoth" is uncertain. Also, the NJB transliterates the Hebrew "Shaddai" in the ebook of Job and elsewhere in the OT. Most translations render "El Shaddai" as "God Almighty"
