The Christians adopt the Jewish Bible as the first half of their Bible, but they add to it and also do not use the original Hebrew.The Jewish Holy Book is the Hebrew Tanakh (Hebrew Bible): in Hebrew only. Some of us (non-Hebrew speakers) look at translations to get an idea of the meaning of the text, but it is understood that only the original Hebrew is the actual Jewish Bible. That is why Torah-scrolls are never in another language.
