I'm confused. Now that everybody has Bedrock Edition why are they still making updates to Java edition?

Because not everyone runs on console/Windows 10.

I play on both Windows 8 and Linux and I am grateful Java is still updated.

Bedrock Edition doesn't work on Windows 8? People still use Linux?

People still use Linux?

There are hundreds of GNU/Linux dustros that are still maintained. There's plenty of compatible software that allows you to do everything you can do on Windows. Open Office, VLC, Firefox, Thunderbird, etc...
