It depends on the denomination, but the general answer is No. Even if it has only the books present in the Jewish Bible, as opposed to some deuterocanonical books, it have extra chapters in some of the later books (like Daniel) and the order in a Protestant Old Testament will certainly be different than the Jewish Bible.


Does the Bible have all the scriptures?

AnswerThe Bible does have all the books now recognised as Christian scripture, but not all the books that could have been recognised as scripture. Books such as the Didache, the Shepherd of Hermas and numerous gospels are not included in the New Testament. The Protestant Old Testament includes the books that Judaism decided to include in its Hebrew Bible, and the Catholic Bible contains some additional books from among those that the Jews could have included but did not do so.

Where can you purchase a complete Bible with all of the lost books?

AnswerThe Catho;ic Bible contains some of the books that were rejected by the Council of Jamnia as non-canonical, as well as late additions to the Books of Esther and Daniel. Unfortunately, no Bible will contain all the gospels that were never included in the New Testament, or the Didache and other works that were once considered inspired but for various reasons were not included. Translations of some of these can be obtained from other sources.


How is the Jewish Bible different to the Christian Bible?

AnswerThe Bible used by the Jewish religion only contains the books of the Old Testament; the New Testament books are only found in Christian Bibles. The Catholic Bible also contains additional Old Testament books called the Deuterocanonical books - these were rejected by Judaism as inauthentic or not inspired. There are also some more subtle differences, resulting in part from the use by the early Christians of the Septuagint, a flawed early Greek translation of the Hebrew scriptures.
