From: utzoo!decvax!harpo!seismo!presby!aron Newsgroups: net.religion Title: "Old" Testament Article-I.D.: presby.172 Posted: Sun Feb 6 09:10:52 1983 Received: Mon Feb 7 00:28:35 1983 The term "Old" Testament is inherently offensive to Jews. It implies that the Jewish Bible is outmoded, that the Jewish people's Covenant with God has been superseded by Christianity and the "New" Testament. The appropriate terms to use (in English) are the Jewish Bible and the Christian Bible. aron shtull-trauring harpo!seismo!presby!aron
