Description - Modern Jews Engage in the New Testament by Michael Cook
Despite the New Testament's impact on Jewish history, virtually all Jews avoid knowledge of its underlying dynamics. Jewish families and communities, thus, remain needlessly stymied when responding to a culture deeply Christian. Their Christian friends, meanwhile, are left perplexed as to why Jews are wary of the Gospel's 'good news'.
This long awaited volume offers and unprecedented, solution-oriented introduction to Jesus and Paul, the Gospels and Revelation, leading Jews out of anxieties that plague them and clarifiying for Christians why Jews draw back from Christians sacred writings. Accessible to lay people, scholars and clergy of all faiths, innovative teachings aids make it ideal for rabbis, ministers and other teachers. Topics include:
· The Gospels, Romans, and Revelation
· The Key concerns for Jews, Misusing the Talmud in Gospel Study
· Jesus' Trial, the 'Virgin Birth' and Empty Tomb Enigmas
· Millennialist Scenarios and Missionary Enchroachment
· The Last Supper and Church Seders
