The Jerusalem Bible

 The Jerusalem Bible was the first widely accepted Catholic English translation of the holy Bible since the Douay–Rheims Version of the 17th century. It has also been widely praised for an overall very high level of scholarship, and is widely admired and sometimes used by liberal and moderate Protestants. The New Jerusalem Bible is recognized as one of today's most accurate, clear and modern translations, the fruit of long collaboration between leading biblical scholars. A Chronological History, showing biblical events against contemporary world rulers and dynasties.

Who made the Jerusalem Bible?
The New Jerusalem Bible (NJB) is an English-language translation of the Bible published in 1985 by Dorton Longman, Todd and Les Editions du Cerf edited by Benedictine biblical scholar Henry Wans Brough and approved for use in study and personal devotion by members of the Catholic Church and also approved.

 Alexander Jones (d. 1970) is considered one of the world's leading biblical scholars. He lectured extensively and authored innumerable articles and several books based on the Scriptures.

Is Jerusalem Bible accurate?Having taken both Biblical Greek and Hebrew, I feel that this translation is one of the most accurate that exist along with the Knox Bible. "The first truly modern Bible for Catholics."
