I have! I think it's funny that /lit/ says all translation is bad in one breath and then pushes the bible in the same one. The old testament in Hebrew is a completely different experience to the one you get from reading in English. A lot of very popular christian verses are severe mistranslations that occurred at some point between the translation from hebrew to greek to latin to english, and english lacks the tools to capture what hebrew does. Independently, I also learned greek and its similar with the New Testament.

The best Commentaries will come from Rashi for the basics, and Nechama Leibowitz for a much more in depth and expansive commentary focused more on textual connections than pure understanding. The Prophets by Abraham Joshua Heschel is also great to get a better understanding of what exactly the Old Testament holds prophecy to be and its role in the theology.

Progressive Jewish institutions and its members are largely psychologically neoliberal whites. Talking about Jesus isn't offensive to them, and learning Christianity isn't taboo. Teaching why we don't accept Jesus is taboo because the leadership doesn't want to offend christians, who are more easily triggered than any SJW strawman
