Jewish Perspectives on the New Testament (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798218031190)

The New Testament is a rich and nuanced text, where each verse can only be understood in the context of the entire Bible. Whether you're a Messianic Jew or a Gentile Christian, Victor Strazhnik's Jewish Perspectives on the New Testament will help you achieve a deeper appreciation of the New Testament and reveal subtleties only scholars would recognize.

The book starts by defining many key terms in the Bible, shedding new light on phrases and ideas that readers often overlook. The next chapter explores Semitic Logic, a set of rhetorical tactics widely used by authors of the New Testament but almost totally ignored in modern discourse about the text. The third part explains the Covenants in the Bible and their relations to Mosaic Law, including the idea that the New Covenant was promised to Israel and that the Church of God existed in the Old Testament. The book concludes with a look at Biblical translations, revealing many incorrect modernizations-some accidental, some purposeful-from the original language.
