Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Although the roots of Christianity run deep into Hebrew soil, many Christians are regrettably uninformed about the rich Hebrew heritage of the church. This volume shows the vital link between Judaism and Christianity, laying a solid foundation for a truly meaningful Jewish-Christian dialogue.

This book gave me a great picture of the Jewishness of Jesus which in turn illuminates the things that He said. It is a must to understand the true background of Jesus and the Christian faith, starting as a sect of Judaism.
