The Christian Holy Book is The Bible.

The primary difference between the Christian Bible and the Jewish Bible is the addition of the New Testament, which fundamentally alters the relationship between God and his Creation. Additionally, the Old Testament is a rearranged version of the Jewish Bible and resorts to translations of texts and material additions not present in the Jewish Bible.

The Christian text is the Holy Bible which contains the Old Testament (Covenant) or Hebrew Bible nearly identical - there are a few translational errors and at times Book arrangement but on a whole, these do not take away the important meaning of the Scripture.

Jews and Christians both consider the Old Testament as sacred-- but Jews do not call it the Old Testament; they call it the Tanakh or the Hebrew Bible (Jews do not use the term "Old Testament" since they do not accept that there is a "New Testamant"). Christians, on the other hand, have two holy books-- the Old Testament, and an additional holy book-- the New Testament, which is their primary religious scripture, since it tells the story of the founding of the Christian religion. Jews do not use the New Testament, nor do they regard it as sacred to Judaism.

The holy book of the Jews, which both the Christians and Moslems also hold as God-given, is the Tanakh: the twenty-four books of the Torah and Prophets.
