I guess, you won't find the idea of the "living" word as prevalent among Jews. Christians and Muslims tend to see their holy books as unfalliable, divine works that are always relevant and right while Jews are a lot more likely to place their holy books in their proper historical and cultural context. There's always ignorant zealots in every group but Jews value their identity and cohesion as a race and culture over signifigant differences in their religious philosophies.
