Publisher's summary

Through the years, our understanding of Jesus has been shaped by different cultural influences, and many Christians have forgotten that Jesus was a Jewish man living in a Jewish land, observing Jewish customs, and investing his life into Jewish men and women.

Trading the popular but inaccurate Western perspective of the Bible for the context in which Jesus actually ministered 2,000 years ago, author Robby Gallaty reveals the fascinating Hebraic culture, customs, and nuances many Christians have never experienced or learned about. He works from the premise that we can't truly appreciate the New Testament unless we understand the Old Testament. By uncovering the teaching of the first- and second-century rabbis and Christian theologians, and highlighting little-known Jewish idioms and traditions, Gallaty takes Christians on a biblical journey to rediscover a forgotten Jesus from a biblical perspective, deepening your relationship with God.

Great insight

liked it. Great insight into the original context of Jesus' life and ministry. If you have not spend much time learning about the 1st century culture, customs, and traditions, this is an outstanding book.

Packed Full

I have searched though about 55 books looking for "Judaisms," 1st century Jewish Biblical interpretations. This book is packed full of them, more than I have found in my previous 55 books combined! I have long believed Christianity has lost a lot due to its separation from Judaism. We have also lost much because of our modern Western thinking. The New Testament is a 1st century Easter book. This book delivers MANY examples of how Jews of Jesus' day would have heard and understood the scriptures and words of Jesus. These "Judaisms" clearly make Jesus more human and even more clearly the Messiah.

Wonderful book for those just beginning to explore the Jewishness of Jesus.

Great book for those that are curious about the Jewishness of Jesus or those who have just become aware of the fact that Jesus was and is the JEWISH Messiah.

Draw Jesus nearer

I loved listening while driving long distances. I felt so emotional when getting to know Jesus better. Now I feel braver to draw closer to God. Adam Verner performance, exceptional!

Excellent!

One of the best books on the Hebrew roots of Jesus. After completing the Audible version, I purchased the Kindle book because there are many passages I want to reference again and explore deeper.

Gave me much to think about

I am a longtime Christian, but I gained many new insights from this discussion. Highly recommended. The author achieves his goal: the book will make you want to dig deeper into the Bible and learn more about Jesus.
