Surely no "Jewish Bible" will contain the New Testament at all.

when people talk about the "Jewish Bible" they are normally referring to the "tanakh".
Completely depends on your viewpoint. Jesus is the Messiah so the Brit Chadashah (NT) is just as much part of the Bible as is the Tanakh (OT). Hence the word "complete" in the Complete Jewish Bible. Of course there is always the discussion of translation issues and I have recently learned that this version keeps the original Hebrew names in the NT and seems to be a more accurate translation throughout. Unfortunately, I can't seem to find an ebook anywhere. Amazon only sells it to overseas customers so maybe I'll change my country affiliation and see what happens.
