| the jewish jesus david hoffbrand: Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews Paula Fredriksen, 2000-12-05 Paula Fredriksen, renowned historian and author of From Christ to Jesus, begins this inquiry into the historic Jesus with a fact that may be the only undisputed thing we know about him: his crucifixion. Rome reserved this means of execution particularly for political insurrectionists; and the Roman charge posted at the head of the cross indicted Jesus for claiming to be King of the Jews. To reconstruct the Jesus who provoked this punishment, Fredriksen takes us into the religious worlds, Jewish and pagan, of Mediterranean antiquity, through the labyrinth of Galilean and Judean politics, and on into the ancient narratives of Paul's letters, the gospels, the Dead Sea Scrolls, and Josephus' histories. The result is a profound contribution both to our understanding of the social and religious contexts within which Jesus of Nazareth moved, and to our appreciation of the mission and message that ended in the proclamation of Jesus as Messiah. |

It's like watching TV in black and white and then suddenly seeing it in color. The truth hasn't changed, but it's meaning becomes more vivid. - Jason Carr |

| the jewish jesus david hoffbrand: The Real Kosher Jesus Michael L. Brown, 2012 Jesus-Yeshua. The most influential Jew who ever lived. The most controversial Jew who ever lived. He has been called a rabbi, a rebel, a reformer, a religious teacher, a reprobate sinner, a revolutionary, a redeemer. Some have claimed he was a magician, others the Messiah. Some say he was a deceiver; others say he was divine. Who is this Jesus-Yeshua, and why are we still talking about him two thousand years later? Recently a prominent Orthodox Jewish rabbi presented a new version of Jesus, a Kosher Jesus that Jews can accept. By reclaiming Yeshua as a fellow Jew and rabbi, he has taken a very major and truly wonderful step in the right direction, but by re-creating Jesus, he has also robbed him of his uniqueness. The Real Kosher Jesus takes you on a journey to uncover the truth. It is a journey filled with amazing discoveries and delightful surprises, a journey that is sometimes painful but that ends with joy, a journey through which you will learn the real story of this man named Yeshua: the most famous Jew of all time, the Jewish nation's greatest prophet, the most illustrious rabbi ever, the light of the nations and Israel's hidden Messiah. |

| the jewish jesus david hoffbrand: Worthy Elyse Fitzpatrick, Eric Schumacher, 2020-02-04 What does the Bible say about the value of women? Does the Bible teach that women are as valuable as men or does it portray them as somehow more flawed, more suspect, or weak and easily deceived? Beginning from Genesis and working all the way through the storyline of the Bible, Worthy demonstrates the significant and yes, even surprising, ways that God has used women to accomplish His kingdom goals. Because, like men, they are created in His image, their lives reflect and declare His worth. Worthy will enable and encourage both men and women to embrace this true and lofty vision of God's creation, plan, and their value in His eyes. Bestselling author Elyse Fitzpatrick and pastor Eric Schumacher together invite women to embrace a transformative and empowering view of their Maker, themselves, and the church. But this isn't only a book for women. It is also a book for men, especially leaders, who want to grow in their understanding of God's perspective on women, people who normally make up the majority of their congregations; men who might be wondering if they've missed something amid the abuse scandals that are rocking the church. Might the headlines they're reading today about abuse have their roots in a denigration of the value and worth of women? Worthy: Celebrating the Value of Women will help every reader see the value, place, and calling of women through study questions and a Digging Deeper section that will help men and women discover how to cherish, value, and honor one another for God's glory. |

| the jewish jesus david hoffbrand: Understanding Jesus Joe Amaral, 2011-09-10 Modern-day Christians often bring their own presuppositions and assumptions to the reading of the Bible, not realizing how deeply their understanding of Christ's life and teachings is affected by a 21st-century worldview. In Understanding Jesus, author Joe Amaral delves deep into Jewish history, societal mores, and cultural traditions, closing the gap created by geographical distance and over two thousand years of history. Using a chronological approach to the life of Christ, he guides the reader through significant events such as Jesus' birth, baptism, and crucifixion, pointing out illuminating details that that the Western mind would normally miss. Amaral's premise is that to understand Jesus, we must understand the time and place in which he was born, the background from which he drew his illustrations, and the audience he spoke to. Throughout the book he explores specific terms, places, and events for their significance and shows how they add richness and meaning to the text. Topics include the connection between Jesus and John the Baptist, the annual Feasts and why they are important to modern Christianity, Jewish customs such as foot-washing, clean and unclean foods, paying tribute to political governments, and the significance of various miracles. In Understanding Jesus, Amaral draws back the curtain on a way of life that existed during the reign of the Caesars, and in doing so, reveals truths about the way we live more than two thousand years later, half a world away. |

| the jewish jesus david hoffbrand: Jesus Never Said Anything New Matt Rosenberg, 2021-02-14 Was Jesus a radical Innovator--or a divine Restorer? When Jesus, known to His people as Yeshua, came on the scene in first-century Israel, His hearers weren't surprised by His message, but by His authority. They didn't see Him as a revolutionary teacher, but as a reformer of the man-made commandments that had been added to the Torah--like all of the prophets who came before Him to correct the Jewish people and draw them back to God. His claims to be the Messiah created a divide among the Jewish people, between those who accepted and those who rejected His divinity. Too many modern Christians believe Jesus came to end Judaism and begin something new, called Christianity. But this misses the point by divorcing Yeshua's message from its context in the Jewish faith. Rabbi Matt Rosenberg of Restoration in Seattle, Washington, is a leader in the Messianic movement and has a passion for helping Jew and Gentile alike understand the message of Yeshua. As a second-generation Messianic rabbi with a Gentile mother, Matt understands the struggles, questions, and general messiness that accompany merging Jewish traditions and Christian customs with the scriptural and historical Yeshua. In this thoughtfully researched and lovingly presented book, Rabbi Rosenberg explains how to: Understand the Jewishness of Jesus and how it impacts believers then and now Appreciate the Bible as one book, not two separate testaments Mend the misunderstandings between Jewish and Gentile believers Ask sincere questions and avoid clichéd answers in an honest search for truth Integrate the Jewish influence on the ordinances of communion and baptism Jewish and Gentile believers alike will glean deeper understanding from Jesus Never Said Anything New, as Rabbi Rosenberg builds the case for why the Jewishness of Jesus is as relevant for Christians and Jews today as it was two thousand years ago. Discovering Yeshua apart from all of the trappings of Western culture will build your faith and challenge your walk with the unchanging God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob! |

| the jewish jesus david hoffbrand: Your People Shall Be My People Don Finto, 2001-02-01 Your people shall be my people, and your God, my God (Ruth 1:16). Like Ruth in the Old Testament, every Gentile believer has come out of the land of famine and into the spiritual realm of abundance in the name of Jesus. But unlike Ruth, we have turned our backs on the Jewish people, the relatives of the Messiah. We need to confess personally and corporately on behalf of the Church for centuries of persecution of the Jewish people, looking in these days for every opportunity to bless and not curse them. Once again, Israel and her people are center stage at a crucial moment in world history, and this book shows why the Church must effect reconciliation and why our prayers are vital in this hour. If we will make the same covenent pledge to Israel that Ruth made to Naomi, the Church will never be the same! |

| the jewish jesus david hoffbrand: When a Jew Rules the World Joel Richardson, 2015 Throughout history, the largely gentile Christian Church has utterly failed to heed Paul's warnings, falling headlong into both ignorance and arrogance toward unbelieving Israel almost from the start. The horrific results of this have been seen in the long and bloody history of anti-Semitism against the Jewish people, in the profound blindness of the Church concerning God's unfolding prophetic plans, in a widespread identity crisis, and in its an inability to faithfully proclaim the true and full Gospel message.

| the jewish jesus david hoffbrand: Reading Moses, Seeing Jesus Seth Postell, Eitan Bar, Erez Soref, 2019-07-24 This book addresses the questions about the believer's relationship to the Torah (the five Books of Moses, or the Pentateuch) and its commandments (the Law): Since Jesus kept the Law, are believers (Jewish and Gentile) also obliged to keep the Law, or at least some portions of it (Sabbath, the food laws, etc.)? What about the Oral Law (rabbinic traditions)? How does the Torah point to the Messiah? How do we apply the Law of Moses today? Though this book is based on more than a decade of academic research, it is written with the non-academic reader in mind and provides easy-to-understand answers to the questions related to the Torah and does so in a manner thoroughly rooted in a careful reading of the biblical text. |
| the jewish jesus david hoffbrand: Greek Scripture and the Rabbis Timothy Michael Law, Alison Salvesen, 2012 Greek was widely used by Jews in the eastern Mediterranean, from Alexander the Great until the Holocaust. However, its role in the translation of Hebrew Scripture for Jewish communities has not received sustained attention. The European Seminar in Advanced Jewish Studies, held at the Oxford Centre for Hebrew and Jewish Studies in 2009 provided an international scholarly forum on the subject. The papers in this volume represent the fruits of the residential workshop. They cover biblical textual criticism, the later Jewish Greek revisions, rabbinic attitudes towards Scripture in Greek, early Christian views of Jewish Greek versions, imperial legislation on Jews and the public reading of Scripture, Greek loanwords in rabbinic literature, and medieval Greek biblical glosses in Jewish manuscripts. |
