As a teacher of the Tenach , this is an awesome tool, Hebrew glossary along with words spelled phonetically in English is a must for serious students of the devarim.
Title is misleading
This book is actually a messianic text, not orthodox Jewish. The dividing line between Judaism and Christianity is belief in Jesus as the messiah, hence the messianic movement is generally considered to be a branch of Christianity with Jewish elements not Jewish with Christian elements. Like labeling a Catholic text as Protestant to attract converts would be considered misleading, calling this Orthodox Jewish is also misleading.
Not a Jewish Bible.
It’s not Jewish as it includes the New Testament & it’s not even a translation as it uses excessive Yiddish terms to make it sound as stereotypically Jewish as possible. For an actual Bible that really Jewish use the JPS Tanakh or Robert Alters Hebrew Bible & Commentary.
