About this listen
There is a perplexing question Christians don't usually know how to answer: Why do the Jewish people reject Christ so strongly?
In this book, Dr. Bar goes beyond his personal experiences and uses extensive research to investigate the historical, theological, cultural, and psychological factors that inhibit Jews from accepting Jesus Christ as their Messiah. He examines how Judaism, initially boring Christianity, evolved into a faith that contradicts and is hostile to Christianity.
Aimed at educating Christian believers, the book takes listeners on a captivating exploration of the intricate relationship between Judaism and Christianity. This book, written from the unique perspective of an Israeli-Jewish believer in Jesus, provides invaluable insights into the reasons behind Jewish rejection and often hostility toward Jesus Christ. It helps Christians better understand the apprehension and reluctance of Jewish people toward Christianity, fostering empathy and connection and ultimately equipping Christians to share the gospel more effectively with God's chosen people.
A salient feature of the book is its unique dual perspective, thanks to the author's unique background. Dr. Eitan Bar is an Israeli-born Jewish-Christian and a descendant of Jewish Partisan Holocaust survivors. He holds the unique distinction of being the first Jewish believer in Jesus to publicly debate an Orthodox rabbi in Hebrew in Israel. With over 15 years dedicated to ministry, Bar has become renowned for his effective evangelization of Jewish people, using his impactful videos, writings, and a popular Jewish-Christian testimonial video series.
The book is divided into three main parts:
Reason #1: The Lies We Tell Ourselves
How Jesus become the best-kept secret in Judaism.
Reason #2: What Was Done to Us in Jesus's Name
Christian antisemitism & replacement theology.
Reason #3: What Christians Tell Us About Our God
Judaism continues to reject the gospel Because It Got Contaminated.

Story
For centuries, many have been taught to believe that the Bible presents a vivid picture of a fiery Hell, where God sadistically torments most of humanity by burning their skin for all eternity. But is this really the picture Scripture paints? Were you raised to view Hell through the lens of the Augustinian-Calvinist tradition, perhaps too intimidated ever to question it? If so, this book is for you. In it, we will challenge the fundamentalist perspective on Hellfire by exploring the original context in which the biblical teachings on Hell were written.

Between 2012 and 2018, I collected all the Jewish rabbinic arguments against Christianity I could find in rabbinic publications (magazines, books, and videos.) Since 2015 I have released about 150 short videos in Hebrew (viewed over 50 million times in Israel alone!) where I introduce and refute the top rabbinic objections to Jesus, the New Testament, and Christianity. This book is a compilation of transcripts of the videos translated into English. It is written in a simple non-academic style.

In 1948, seven hundred thousand Palestinians were forced out of their homes by the first Arab-Israeli War. More than seventy years later, most of their houses are long gone, but millions of their descendants are still registered as refugees, with many living in refugee camps. This group—unlike countless others that were displaced in the aftermath of World War II and other conflicts—has remained unsettled, demanding to settle in the state of Israel. Their belief in a "right of return" is one of the largest obstacles to successful diplomacy and lasting peace in the region.

The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

In this text, you will hear the word of God through this amazing document. We will take this amazing journey together and learn why this text is not an official book of the Bible.

The book of Enoch was thought to be lost for over 2,000 years until, in 1773, a traveller brought three copies back from Ethiopia. Whether or not this ancient book was actually authored by Enoch, the father of Methuselah and great-grandfather of Noah, is an ongoing debate among historians and theologians. But all recognise the book of Enoch as one of the most important apocalyptic works outside of the Bible.

Have you ever wondered how the God of love and grace, introduced by Jesus—a Jewish rabbi in Israel two thousand years ago who proclaimed His mission not to judge the world but to save it—morphed into a Western fundamentalist god of fear, wrath, and violence? This transformation is rooted in a twisted theology marked by misinterpretations, flawed translations, and verses stripped from their original context. In this book, I aim to expose and refute the doctrine most central to the destructive ideology known as "Christian Fundamentalism."

For centuries, many have been taught to believe that the Bible presents a vivid picture of a fiery Hell, where God sadistically torments most of humanity by burning their skin for all eternity. But is this really the picture Scripture paints? Were you raised to view Hell through the lens of the Augustinian-Calvinist tradition, perhaps too intimidated ever to question it? If so, this book is for you. In it, we will challenge the fundamentalist perspective on Hellfire by exploring the original context in which the biblical teachings on Hell were written.

Story
Between 2012 and 2018, I collected all the Jewish rabbinic arguments against Christianity I could find in rabbinic publications (magazines, books, and videos.) Since 2015 I have released about 150 short videos in Hebrew (viewed over 50 million times in Israel alone!) where I introduce and refute the top rabbinic objections to Jesus, the New Testament, and Christianity. This book is a compilation of transcripts of the videos translated into English. It is written in a simple non-academic style.

Story
Have you ever wondered how the God of love and grace, introduced by Jesus—a Jewish rabbi in Israel two thousand years ago who proclaimed His mission not to judge the world but to save it—morphed into a Western fundamentalist god of fear, wrath, and violence? This transformation is rooted in a twisted theology marked by misinterpretations, flawed translations, and verses stripped from their original context. In this book, I aim to expose and refute the doctrine most central to the destructive ideology known as "Christian Fundamentalism."

Story
We are living in an era where the Bible is not just read regularly by Christians, but with the advent of social media, it seems almost everyone nowadays is sharing their own interpretation of it. However, despite the considerable time many individuals spend reading the scriptures, a significant number overlook or are unaware of the fundamental rules or principles of interpreting ancient texts correctly. This oversight can lead to misinterpretations of the biblical text with far-reaching consequences.

Story
For centuries, many have been taught to believe that the Bible presents a vivid picture of a fiery Hell, where God sadistically torments most of humanity by burning their skin for all eternity. But is this really the picture Scripture paints? Were you raised to view Hell through the lens of the Augustinian-Calvinist tradition, perhaps too intimidated ever to question it? If so, this book is for you. In it, we will challenge the fundamentalist perspective on Hellfire by exploring the original context in which the biblical teachings on Hell were written.

Story
There is no better way to comprehend our Abba's love for us than through The Parable of the Prodigal Son. However, one might miss significant insights if interpreted from a Western Christian perspective. Studying it from the ancient Jewish biblical context—considering Jesus was a Jewish rabbi in 1st-century Israel—can reveal layers of the parable in unprecedented ways and demonstrate God's unconditional love in ways you've never seen before!

Story
The translation of the Hebrew Scriptures is both immensely important and challenging. It's vital because it allows billions of people who do not read or understand Hebrew to engage with the Hebrew Scriptures. However, capturing the full meaning of the original language is a complex and sometimes impossible task.

A Surprising Challenge
Having already listened to Eitan Bar's "Refuting Rabinic Judaism" I thought that this book would offer more of the same eye-opening insights into the history behind modern Judhaism, and why there is such animus by so many in the Jewish community to Christianity. While it touches a little on that, the onus of the book (or at least what stuck with me most as a Christian) is that Christians are the main reason that Jews don't believe in Jesus.
By the end of the section on the history of Christian treatment of Jews, I felt like flying to Israel just to knock on every possible door to apologise about every crazy, demented thing that Christians have said about and done to the Jewish people.
But Dr. Bar posed further, more substantive, challenges that I hadn't anticipated. namely, our understanding of the Trinity(!) and Substitutionary Atonement(!)-he favours the ancient Ransom View/ Christus Victor understanding of the atonement. My main criticism here is that it did not seem evident that was always interacting with the most sophisticated expressions of these views. He takes particular issue with the way that Reformed pastors have articulated the Substitutionary Atonement. I would be interested to hear his assessment of William Lane Craig 's treatment (being the work of a Molinist) of these topics in his forthcoming volumes on philosophical systematic theology. Probably worth 4.5 stars, but I know a lot of haters will give it 1s, so, I'm okay with rounding up to a 5.

Excellently written and very compelling
This book was extremely informative especially for Christians in the U.S. As a Christian-follower I have always struggled with presenting Jesus/God to others with non-Christian beliefs in a humble way-like Jesus did. I feel that Love should transcend all conversations with those who don’t know Jesus. I think it’s important to learn about how others view their god before we put them on the defensive and tell them that everything they’ve ever known about their god is wrong and they are damned outright. The Gospel of Jesus is of Love-not hate/division/separation. We need to understand unconditional Love from the Father fully in order to have a good conversation with a Jew, especially, but also for other religions. Everyone understands love as good and hate as bad-no matter what religion they ascribe to. So as Christ followers we need to present our God as love-unconditional love-that does not hate or separate. And yet is humble.

Every Christian Should read
I have read several books by Eitan Bar and have learned so much. I have not been disappointed yet. I believe that so many Christians are so far removed from the Jewishness of Jesus and it is such a shame. In the last several years my faith and understanding of who God is has changed so much.
