I will be in Switzerland for 25 days in 9 cities including Murren. I am confused as to whether to buy the Swiss 15 day flex pass OR Jungfraujoch Travel Pass. Would buying both be repetitive? Also, what about the gondola pass ?

Have you run the numbers for each train ride / lift / gondola you plan to take? Note that train prices on sbb.com assume you have a Half Fare Card so you need to double them for adults to get full-fare costs. Total the costs. Then compare half-price costs plus CHF 125 (?) for the one month HFC. And compare those totals to each pass cost plus costs which are NOT fully covered by the passes. There's no shortcut, sorry.
Any kids?

Yes, buying both would be repetitive. The only reason I can see that you might buy both is if you'll use up the 15 days of pass benefits in your other destinations. You could decide that there, on the spot, if you've been using the pass more or less than expected.
