The '''Jerusalem Bible''' was originally published in France as ''La Bible de Jérusalem'' and was released in English in 1966. One of the translators was the famous [[J.R.R. Tolkien]], whose contribution to the work was primarily the [[Book of Jonah]].
The translation contains not only the commonly accepted Books of the Bible canon but also the deuterocanonical books commonly known as the [[Apocrypha]]; namely the books of Tobit, Judith, 1 and 2 Maccabees, Wisdom, and Ecclesiasticus. Also included are portions of Esther and Daniel that have also been considered deuterocanical (i.e., Esther 1:1a-1r; 3:13a-13g; 4:17a-17z; 5:1a-1f,2a,2b; 8:12a-12v; 10:3a-31 and Daniel 3:24-90; chapters 13, 14).
