No, it is usally not in the same order.

Most Jewish editions of the Hebrew Bible are written in either Common Order or Lenningrad Codex order.

Christian translations of the text (called "The Old Testament"), are usually organized by subject matter, rather than authorship.

What is the difference between the Hebrew Bible and the king James Bible?

The Hebrew Bible is another name for what Christians often call the "Old Testament." Jews do not tend to call their bible the "Old Testament", since this name implies that their bible is "old" or that it was replaced by the New Testament. Jewish people do respect the Christian scriptures but do not regard the New Testament as sacred to Judaism, so a Bible for Jews would only contains the Old Testament. Since they do not have any other Testaments, many Jews call their scriptures the Hebrew Bible or the Tanakh (the Hebrew abbreviation for these scriptures).As for the King James Bible, it is a popular Christian translation, from the Protestant tradition-- it contains both the Old Testament and the New Testament. You will note that the King James translation of the Old Testament puts the books in a different order from how the Hebrew Bible has them, and some older versions of King James translate certain verses somewhat differently, in an effort to "prove" that Jesus was predicted in the Hebrew scriptures (Jews do not believe he was). But in general, the main difference is the King James Bible contains both the Hebrew Scriptures and the New Testament, while a Hebrew Bible contains the approved Jewish scriptures only, usually translated from the Hebrew by the Jewish Publication Society or another authorized Jewish organization.

Is the Hebrew Bible the same as the order of English Bible?

There is no such thing as "the English Bible." The There is only a Hebrew Bible, which can be translated into any language, including English. The order of the Books of the Hebrew bible has nothing to do with what language it's translated into. It has more to do with whether it's a Christian Translation or a Jewish Translation. Jewish Translations preserve the original order of the Hebrew Bible. Christian translations usually use a different order, created by the early Church around the 2nd Century of the common era.

Though primarily a term for the Scriptures used by millions of Jews today, it is at times used to describe the Old Testament used in Christianity.

Do the Jewish and Christian religions have the same bible?

No. The Hebrew Bible consists of the books of the old Testament of the Christian Bible, but in a different order. The Christian bible consists of the Old Testament (Hebrew Bible) but also those books of the New Testament relating the accounts of Jesus Christ and the early Christian Church. Christians refer to the Hebrew Bible as the 'Old' testament or 'old covenant' as they represent to a Christian God's old covenant with us for redemption through sacrifice. The new testament or new covenant represents the new contract between God and us in redemption through Jesus. The Old Testament is still very important to the Christian, however, as it relates the foundation of Christianioty as we know it - and, of course, it was the 'Bible' used by Christ himself. Correction: The Jewish Bible is called the Tanach which is made up of the Torah (Teachings), Nevi'im (Prophets), and K'tuvim (Writings). The Christian Old Testament is based on the Tanach but was thoroughly altered to support the teachings of Christianity. Therefore, Judaism and Christianity do not share a bible in any way.
